Are Jags gonna cut Blackmon?

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.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
