Are Jags gonna cut Blackmon?


Recommended Posts

I am normally the last one to jump on these ideas of players that get canned from one team but damn it Blackmon with Cam and KB would really turn our receiving corps into a very dangerous outfit.  If only we could get him to change his ways.  You know SF will jump like a cat on a hot tin roof for him.

 

I cannot help but think if the Jags cut this guy loose that we jump at giving him a chance to change his life.

 

Maybe being on a team that is up and coming might change his attitude.

 

Such and incredible talent. 

 

Just the thought.   

 

With our without him I think we are going to be fine.

I'm pretty sure he's suspended for this entire season.

 

Actually he can be reinstated before the season. 

 

Give him a vet minimum and incentives.   If he fails again.  he is going to be gone for lifetime.

 

His baggage is a ton but he is so young.  Rivera is that type of a coach that gets the respect.  Maybe he could turn him around.

 

You know someone is going to give him a chance.

If he does get released and can be had cheap, the Panthers would be crazy to not give him a look.  Give him a "prove it" deal with almost no guaranteed money.  If he gets his poo together he's a stud on the field.  If he continues to be a headcase, cut him loose.

If GMan viewed Smitty as a distraction how do you think he would view Blackmon? I would rather stick with what we have.

That was a totally different scenario.  Blackmon would be coming into the organization under a zero tolerance policy.  It would be his second chance to turn it around.  It's Cam and Kuechly's team and he would know that coming in.  Smitty was here way before any other current team leaders and probably had a loud voice in the locker room.  You're comparing apples and oranges.

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
