Panthers "lurking" on James Jones


Catalyst

Recommended Posts

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.

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.

    • I wanted someone to hire him so we got the picks, but I'm also not upset that he'll now be back. I genuinely don't understand why so many fans on here dislike him so much.  No, he's not perfect and made some mistakes this year, especially at the end of the playoff game and going so soft in coverage on the final drive. But considering this place torched him all offseason for us having the "worst defense in NFL history" last year.  Said in the whole pre-draft process how we had to go defense in round 1 because of it and then complained the rest of the offseason that we didn't do enough to improve the defensive roster. How do people say all that about the defense and then complain when he turned that same unit into a pretty respectable defense this year.  They were really the only reason we were in a lot of games for most of the season, as the middle part of the season they really stepped up and were playing like one of the better defenses in the league. I don't see any reason we can't improve even more next year if we spend another offseason focusing on adding pieces on that side of the ball, which we should be able to do with our draft picks and cap space.
    • And they are perfect during the month of February! The fact they're 11th in the league now, but best in the league since Dec 6 tells you everything you need to know.
