Anyway the reason I threw that reading insult out there would be because what's-his-name was obviously trying to misconstrue what I was saying into something else. It irritates me when people do that as it just shows they have no real leg to stand on in an argument and are solely there to be annoying. Or else they really have no reading comprehension, but I like to think it is the former. Call it optimism in humanity.

Oh and Matt Jones would be a nice pick-up, as well.

Misconstrue your exact words? Isn't somebody being completely unwilling to acknowledge error? You specifically stated that we should have signed Cayton when that was never a possibility. Trade was an option if you totally ignore the dealings of this team over the offseason. I don't. The only thing you expect people to read is your mind over your posts.

Oh and Matt Jones is less of a possibility than TJ.

Of course he will do that, they all do. But I don't think the team that gets him will pay anywhere close to what Seattle paid. They will get him relatively cheap, relative being the key word.

Rumors have 4 teams in the mix. If 1 thinks (mistakenly) that he is THE missing piece, they may open the cash box.

Owens got what, about 2 million or so to sign with Cincy for one year? I would expect that T.J. probably will get a similar contract, at least in terms of dollars per year, or maybe a bit more because he is younger.

I tend to disagree. But, who the hell knows which one of us is correct right now. Time will tell.

If someone gets him for cheap, I will be very pissed. But, I doubt I will be.

It literally shocks me when I look at this thread and see things such as "We are staying the same" or (and this is paraphrased yet how I read it) "Any of our Wide Receivers besides Steve Smith can be considered legitimate."

Everyone must be simply deluding themselves. Dwayne Jarret had all of the promise in the world when he was drafted. That was years ago. He has shown a habit of not being prepared. This is our "seasoned vet" behind Smitty. Sure, maybe he will be a decent Wide Receiver some day. However, as of this season, I cannot trust his maturity or skill.

We (and yes, as a fan I am including myself among organization) need a solid number two receiver. T.J. Houshmanzadeh is sitting out there, an early 30 version of Moose, and yet we make no move to get him, even though his addition to our team would help us in many ways, the most important of those being the slackening of coverage on Steve and the lessening of pressure on our two running backs. Those running backs deserve all the help we can get them, as they are the foundation of our offense.

Really we should have also signed Patrick Crayton, IMO. PANTHERS MANAGEMENT LISTEN TO YOUR FANS PLEASE.

Yes listen to the ill advised panthers fans who's not at every practice and is not giving the players we do have a chance to play...Im glad the office do not listen to most of the things you say!

True that !!

Now maybe you could listen to the Panther fans who have been at the GAMES and watched the horrid WR core fail.

They are probably the ones who want us to bring in a 32 yr old who's been cut/released by 2 teams in one off season and a horrid personality.

I didn't think the Panthers would go after TJ anyways, but for the vet min? We can't take a chance on him for the minimum?

Danny O'Neil of the Seattle Times reports that Houshmandzadeh has not returned messages since being released, but a source who had spoken to Houshmandzadeh said he appears to be narrowing down his destinations to either Oakland or Washington.

The 32-year-old Houshmandzadeh led the Seahawks in catches last year and has more than 900 receiving yards in each of the last five seasons.

O'Neill writes that Houshmandzadeh is likely to sign for the veteran minimum salary in 2010.

Smitty will catch 85 to 100 passes, the TE will get around 60 combined and the backs will get 75 combined. The #2 guy will get 50, considering it's not Jarrett, then it's 11. Dump him for depth on defense. I'm sorta hoping Fox leaves after this year and takes his underachieving brown nosers with him.:auto:

I like his, run first approach and play great defense game plan, but he has made some horrible personnel decisions over the years. :mad5:

Now if that happens, I will be pissed off......and I will eat a big healthy helping of crow.

There has to be tremndous baggage and attitude problems for the rest of the league to pass on him for a vet minimum cost. Will be interested to see what comes to light.

Also remember that TJ wantst o be a #1....might have something to do with the Raiders and the Skins.

He is a Raven

In a surprise move, the Baltimore Ravens reached agreement with former Seattle Seahawks wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh on a one-year, $855,000 deal, according to league sources.

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I said could, not would. I recognize he has potential based on past performance. Compared to what KP has done, Howell has more potential and the physical traits to make noise. KP has small hands and a weak arm. Not something you want in even your backup QB.  I've been hammering since last off-season before we re-signed Dalton, improve the room. Other than getting younger, I don't see how anyone can say we legitimately improved the room or even tried. We might as well have signed Josh Rosen.  Dalton is still on the roster for now. That's 3 QBs unless we trade or cut him. He's still Bryce's mentor after all. Do you believe we are going to draft someone with potential and give them a legitimate opportunity to develop from the practice squad? Are we going to carry 3 QBs on the active roster? 4 for a developmental rookie? Are we going to potentially cut KP if we draft a rookie and he's outperformed? Doubtful. Cutting Dalton(if we can't trade him) and KP would be 8m in wasted cap space.  I chose Howell as an example because he showed promise in his only full season as a starter. You could plug in another name with the physical traits and potential and what i said would still apply. KP showed almost nothing and was benched. I genuinely don't care if it’s rookie pick as long as there is the potential to develop into a future NFL QB.  As much as I can't stand him, Bellichek was always developing a number 2 QB even with the GOAT as his starter. The wisdom of that was evident when Cassell came in when Brady was hurt week 1 and went 11-5 and almost made the wildcard, which 11-5 gets you almost any other year. I give credit where it's due though. Cassel and Jimmy G both came into the league as developmental QBs, potential QB1s, and went on to have careers.  You never know if you never try. KP feels like a punt in addressing the most important position on the field. Bryce has never played 2 full games of franchise QB level football back to back.  If Bryce progresses, are you ready to offer a 280m 5 year extension based off a one hit wonder year? If Bryce regresses and we need a QB in 27, are we going to trade a fortune away again to trade up to 1 to get one? Are you ready to do the past 3 years all over again?  To me, it's not about Kenny Pickett. It's about the move itself. It was a feeble attempt to improve the QB room. We better hope Bryce succeeds, because if he doesn't, we literally have no backup plan right now.

      Center/Interior Line at 19

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      IOL that early isn’t good value at all. We have a LT who might not ever be good again and a RT that might retire soon. T seems deep early in this draft, so I’d go there in the 1st.

      Not unexpected: Panthers raise season ticket prices

      By toldozer · Posted

      Season tickets aren't affordable anymore definitely when they've been so bad for 8 years before last season. When I started going my seats were front row uppers for like 38 bucks. Those seats are 100 dollars now. Teams make their money from tv, if I was an owner my goal would be to break even on tickets and concessions.
