sad but true, mccants thusfar has blown away taylor jacobs in on field production and he was drafted 3 rounds further down.

[QUOTE=sportscurmudgeon]I just checked. Rod Gardner was drafted AHEAD of Santana Moss, Reggie Wayne and Todd Heap in terms of pass catchers. Oh and Deuce McAlister was drafted after good old 50/50 too.

So, each and every person who was involved in the Skins' draft that year who pushed for Gardner ought to be BANNED from the scouting and drafting meetings for a decade. And that should include Danny Boy and Vinnie Boombatz if either of them even said "Boo" on the subject![/QUOTE]

As I recall, Danny Boy wanted to draft Moss but was overruled by Schotty. In fact, prior to the draft, the buzz heads were saying that the draft would be a big test for Schottty b/c Danny was in love with Moss.

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

Looks slike He's going out just like Westbrook. What a SCRUB!!!!!! I wounder if Gardner and Westbrook will start a tag team? They can call them selfs the X-Skins brawlers. Our the 1'st round floppers.
Any good ideas for there team name?

[QUOTE]The Washington pick was the first for Marty Schottenheimer, who took over the team after last season's disappointments. He was given complete control by owner Daniel Snyder, who spent a lot of time in the locker room in his first two years.

''Dan and I discussed before the draft a number of scenarios,'' Schottenheimer said. ''We talked about what Gardner gives us. He said, 'Do what you think is best.'''

Schottenheimer, short on receivers, obviously did. Snyder's choice was Moss, who went a pick later[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE]Snyder reportedly preferred Moss over Gardner in the 2001 draft. But then-coach Marty Schottenheimer, who had the final say on personnel, selected Gardner with Washington's first-round pick.[/QUOTE]

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

Now let's sign him back to seal the deal!?

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

[QUOTE=Southpaw]McCants was cheap, and he was a big red zone target like Mike Sellers is now. He had six touchdowns in just 27 receptions, two years ago. Plus, at 6'3" and 215 lbs, he's bigger than any receiver on the roster.

I still don't quite understand the hate for McCants. I mean of course he wasn't a gamebreaker, but he was a decent 3rd or 4th receiver. He produced far more than Jacobs ever has, and he was cheaper and picked deeper in the draft. I'm not sure what everyone expected from him.[/QUOTE]

Nobody hates him, but at the same time we just don't understand the love for him. He had a couple of good games, he had 6 TD's one year. That's great, but not exactly a guy we miss in the least bit. Especially for the $$ he was being paid here.

He hasn't been able to stick with a depleted WR corps. in Philly, that doesn't say very much for him.

You said it yourself, he's a 3rd or 4th WR. I'd say he's closer to a 4th now. And most #4 guys are pretty interchangeable.

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

Not sure if anyone has seen it yet, but 50-50 is now on the Packers.

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

Sorry to hear... he has some good potential. '04 was lousy for all the Skins receivers cause the QB play was so lousy. Hopefully he catches on with another team for '06

I Liked McCants as well, I do think he was probably a player who could be playing along side Moss right now, but it was his attitude towards dedication that wounde him in the dog house with Gibbs, lets face it football isn't that important to him, and that's why he's out of here, Gibbs was rebuilding the attitude and mindset first and formost when he took over, he couldn't have McCants dragging that down.

I liked McCants for the same reason people like Betts. He was a Washington draft pick, that occasionally show signs of promise. He was by no means a game breaker, but he was a decent red zone target. And with the numbers all of the receivers, not named Moss have put up, he might have been a nice change of pace for Brunell, at 6'3" and 214 lbs.

[QUOTE=TheMalcolmConnection]Not sure if anyone has seen it yet, but 50-50 is now on the Packers.[/QUOTE]The way Farve is throwing Rod was always pretty good as a defender when the ball was going to be intercepted.

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

Haaaaaaaaaaa he is on the packers
still droppin balls like their hot... no seriously the game is 1 minute in and he has already dropped a ball

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

Update drop it like its hot just dropped another.

so far he is 0/2

EDIT 30 minutes later Rod catches a ball!!!

he is 1/3. He is even worse than 50/50

EDIT AGAIN
ok i don't know if anyone cares but to update. Rod just made an amazing 22 yard play. Remember he makes the hard plays but fails to make the easy ones

He as 2/4 exactly 50/50

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

does the dropping of Gardner have any effect on the pick we received for him.

Re: Panthers Drop Rod Like He's Hot
 

According to Draft Notebook, [url]http://www.draftnotebook.com/traded_picks.htm[/url] we will get a 6th rounder from Mr. DILIH

Sign Marty up for that one, he was the one that wanted RG while Danny Boy wanted to draft Santana Moss.

Watched the Raven Packers game last night, 50/50 caught a couple short passes from Favre but his presence was hardly noticeable..
