Panthers acquire special teams 'ace' Colin Jones from 49ers

Roto says the thought about moving him to WR a whole back.

In other words, he won't be making any contributions defensively. It's sad that we'll make all these moves for ST "aces" just to cover for Brian Murphy's deficiency as a coach.

or maybe brian murphy asked for specific personnel moves to cover for talent deficiency on the field. why make the most negative, worst possible assumptions without anything to back it up?

i mean seriously, if we didn't go and get this guy, posters like Growl would be all like "this team is so complacent, god forbid we actually go make some roster moves to improve our team, grumble grumble snarf"

now that we make a move, it's "that damn front office conspiracy, making moves to get new guys on the team just to cover for a deficiency garble snarf"

get the fug outta here with that noise

here's some actual content that isn't idiotic bitching and baseless speculation

Colin Jones is an American Football safety who is currently a member of the San Francisco 49ers. He was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft.[1] He played college football at TCU. He went to high school in Bridgeport, Texas and graduated in 2006.

backup safety, not much to go on here, but it fills two holes potentially.

Youre right, despite the large influx of dollars an talent into special teams this offseason, along with an additional year implementing the system and an additional assistant, we have absolutely no reason to believe Brian Murphy isn't a good coach.

    • I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
