"Former Steelers Receiver" is producing the same kind of vibes as "Florida Man".  

I don't even want to hear about George Pickens and how he's a great target for the Panthers. 

Yeah, you already know Pickens is a head case grabbing headlines like these in a season or two.

Not sure how CJ would do what Lamar Jackson couldn't.

The Texans were saying all the right things about DJ, dude just doesn't have it.

CJ has two playoff wins in 2 years.   Clearly they didn't need Johnson anyway.

We were going to cut Jackson anyway, it was a swap of two players that were on their way out of their respective teams.

We would have been better off saving the cap space and not trading for Diontae in the first place. I don’t know for sure but since we made that trade before the draft, McConkey may have been off the board as too similar to Johnson.

The amount of money Diontae lost after finding ways to not make it work with Lamar + CJ is insane.

Can't hold his time with Bryce against him given how bad Bryce played weeks 1 + 2, but to fail with Lamar and CJ in the same season...? Big yikes.

You have to be Steve Smith good to have the kind attitude Johnson does and get away with it lol

Say what you want about Steve Smith, but when it came to putting in the work and getting better and being ready on game day, he was extremely professional.  I don't  think that was true with Johnson.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
