Panthers "lurking" on James Jones

They could sign Donald Driver at this point and I would jump for joy.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

would be a huge upgrade from LaFell as the #2, that's for sure

[Guest Dark Knight]

I want Nicks & Jones.

Not Jones as a consolation for letting Nicks get away.

That is exactly what I want. Nicks/Jones/Brandin Cooks.

If Nicks were to get away, Sidney Rice needs to be signed.

Bring back Moose

From the what I saw he was good but I still wonder how much was him and how much was A rod.

 

The fact he played with Rodgers is a big time plus for us.  Rodgers puts a lot of heat on his passes and moves around just like Cam.  Our wrs had a hard time catching his bullets with consistency.  Already the norm for Jones....plus big redzone threat and good athlete.

1st day of FA  guys get 5-12 million

2nd day                        4-7 million

3rd day                         2-5 million  (we are now getting into our territory)

I like Jones but he's far, far, far from being a resolution here.

[Soul Rebel]

Sanders is the next best for me.

This!! Jones is solid but if he comes aboard, I'd hope it would be paired with Nicks. Sanders can be a #1 and is only 26 versus Jones at 30.

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

He is also turning 30 in a couple weeks. If we sign him I hope it is for 3 years max. 

[The Huddler]

This guy is good. Not a yards guy, but a TD machine for sure. Would be awesome in the red zone.

[duke11693]

James Jones might as well be freaking Jerry Rice compared to what we have right now. 

[Proudiddy]

Yeah. .. and he is good

Not denying that Panthro, I've admired Jones' game from afar... IIRC, we were rumored to have been looking at him in a trade two years ago.

Problem is, he is limited and I believe he has already hit his ceiling. Without looking, for some reason I think he is right around 30 and his skill set just seems suited for a slot guy, borderline #2. It would be an upgrade from what we've had but not a huge one.

It's just hard to imagine whatever we do will negate all the losses we have incurred.

need nicks and jones
