James Jones speaks about Panthers

[Catalyst]

Go punch a puppy or something.

[Jackofalltrades]

He's a product of Rodgers and McCarthy, period. Do. not. want.

Asinine statement.

[Jackofalltrades]

We could crease more cap space if needed. It's not like we're stuck with what we have.

DG doesn't want to push debt forward, but if he needs the space he'll create it.

[Guest Dark Knight]

Jones and Cotchery would be ok

Jones, Cotchery, a first (Cooks/Benjamin), & 2nd or 3rd (???) would be a significant upgrade over Smith, Lafell, Ginn, & Hixon.

Jones/Cotchery: 105 Rec 1,149 Yd 13 TD

LaFell/Ginn Jr: 85 Rec 1,183 Yd 10 TD

Smith: 64 Rec 745 Yd 4 TD

1st Rd: MOAR

WR corp will be better next season. People have no patience.

[Catalyst]

The idea that Jones is purely a product of Rodgers is wrong. Last year is proof of that. Now, I suppose you could be worried that he's a product of McCarthy's system, but he's also been the 3rd option in that system, meaning given a #1 or #2 role he could produce more.

 

At any rate, he'd clearly be the best WR on our roster at least until the draft.

I hate to break the bad news, but that is a vastly improved WR corp.

[teeray]

Mark my words, he'll get around the same as LaFell did from N.E. We're not talking about Megatron here.

True. But what is also true is every receiver that is not Megatron is not Megatron.

[Newtons2ndLaw]

Asinine statement.

 

You do realize the open market is reflecting my sentiments precisely.

 

Teams are getting smarter about understanding the importance of < system and QB > when it comes to evaluating WRs.

[Jmac]

We will have to cut some bodies to get enough space to sign these guys with a decent contract they might accept.........let's see what happens next week...usually when DG pounces.

And as usual on paper or in madden this might be true.  Factor in < chemistry > and no it is not a vastly improved WR corp.

Besides, Rogers missed a better part of last season due to injury, anyway.

Seems more like a wash to me.

 

and that's if we draft a WR that produces immediately which is no easy feat in the NFL.

[TheRumGone]

Indeed.

 

Who is the #1?

 

james jones/ draft pick

 

jones can handle the #1 corners. When he was the #1 in GB due to injuries he shined. He also had someone with a laser rocket arm throwing to him.

[davos]

I'd like this to happen but since it hasn't happened so far I'm not holding my breath.
