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

Prime Smitty wouldn't have gotten this many chances. Maybe Moss or Megatron. Maybe. Antonio Brown and Josh Gordon were much better than Diontae could ever dream of being.

And you know every team after Carolina had a long discussion with him before signing about how he was on a short leash. And this dude still wrecked his family's future. Selfish mofo.

Or maybe he's playing 4D chess and trying to get the bag and a Lombardi at KC. Nah, Andy ain't putting up with that foolishness.

This makes Morgan and Canales look like geniuses for getting anything out of him and for him

Well, maybe not geniuses. He was actually getting attention which seems to be his whole problem.

I’ll play devil’s advocate here and say if we didn’t trade for him we would have 1) saved $9.4M in cap and cash and 2) we might have drafted McConkey.

I won’t call us geniuses when we altered our team for him and paid most of his money. The picks basically cancel out since we got Pittsburgh’s late 7th and got the Ravens’ late 5th and gave up two 6ths. We would have been better if we just dumped Donte to save $12M in cap space and drafted our Diontae Johnson.

Honestly I’m amazed by his fall from grace. On the field he was great for us when healthy for a while. Dude was getting open at will, and had surprising YAC ability too. But clearly shows how much behind the scenes stuff matter and we never know about

    • 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.....
