Panthers Interested in Kenny Britt

[MrBubba]

So what Wednesday afternoon or maybe Thursday its announced he signs elsewhere

Our backup plan for the prom has dumped us and we are in "ask anyone" mode.

 

Person is suggesting Mario Manningham...

The Charlotte Observer names free agent Mario Manningham as a "guy to keep an eye on" for the Panthers.

Beat writer Joe Person is simply connecting the dots. Manningham and GM Dave Gettleman know each other from their Giants days. Manningham is actually visiting the G-Men on Monday. He'd be an extremely underwhelming addition to a depleted Panthers receiving corps. Manningham's left knee appears to be shot. Realistically, he isn't much better than what Carolina already has.

No, you misunderstand. I meant the situation. This could be like Ginn resurrecting his career here.

 

Oh, my bad.  Why not? Britt could come in and do his thing. Of course he doesn't strike me as having that chip on his shoulder like Ginn, and has that checkered history. At this point, I guess he's worth the shot.  We're scraping the barrel, but it is arguable that he had the most upside out of any FA WR during this off season.  If his knees are good and head is in the game, he could turn out to be the best of the bunch. Hard to believe, but true.

It's officially ROCK BOTTOM. I'm surprised this dude's antics haven't got him kicked out of the league. I'd still rather have Britt than Manningham. Who knows...a change of scenery may do KB good.

Given Britt's abysmal 2013 season and lengthy rap sheet, have to think Panthers interest was of the kick-the-tires variety.

[Kuech the Sneak]

Everyone we've been 'interested in' except for Roman fugging Harper hasn't signed here. I'll believe this if/when we sign him.

Well Harper was the first one who actually visited and we signed him, had two visits today with cotchery and darian Stewart, although person is saying Stewart wasn't offered a contract

Wouldn't be surprised.  I think DG tossed Smith because he wanted Cam to be the leader on offense. Britt may be a distraction of sorts but he isn't going to try to be a leader in the lockerroom.

 

Could give him something small to give him a chance to resurrect his career, like we did Ginn

 

Like an 8 ball?

 

[SmokinwithWilly]

Sooner or later we are going to have to stop being picky and settle for someone who will spread eagle and catch some balls. 

If we want someone who will spread eagle and catch some balls, better bring in Miley Cyrus.

I am reading that Manningham will more than likely end up with the Giants. If I am not mistaken, I read that Joe Person thing last week.  I read the Giants thing yesterday.

[Kuech the Sneak]

Would welcome it but don't think it'll happen

[BeasonBeastingBacks]

I mean lol

[KillerKat]

So people bitch that we have no receivers then bitch when we look at all of them. Huddle logic.

[LinvilleGorge]

I wonder if he has any real sources that indicate this or he's just assuming we're interested because we desperately need WRs and Britt is one of the last decently talented options available? Kind of sounds like the latter IMO.

[IGSaint]

At this point pickers can't be choosers. If he is willing to sign with the panthers for a reasonable contract than we should give him a shot.
