Cotchery a panther

[stirs]

Props to Gman for waiting him out.

[Keep Pounding]

What number will he wear ?

ESPN this morning:

"It wouldn’t make much sense for Cotchery to sign with the Panthers.

He wouldn’t get a chance to work with a new quarterback until training camp because of the ankle surgery that will sideline Carolina's Cam Newton for the next four months. Cotchery would also be joining a group of wide receivers that has been stripped of almost all of its parts. Toney Clemons , a former seventh-round pick by the Steelers, has the most catches of any wide receiver on Carolina’s roster, and he has a grand total of three receptions.

Cotchery is more of a complementary receiver at this stage of his career, and he excelled as a No. 3 wideout last season when he caught a career-high 10 touchdown passes. Why not reprise that role given his comfort with it, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and the Steelers’ offense?

The wild-card here is money -- and whether the Panthers are so desperate for wide receivers they are willing to overpay for a player who has logged 10 NFL seasons and turns 32 in June."

I thought no one wanted to sign with the panthers? At least according to some recent dumbasses on here.

The way things have been going, 89.

[PantherPhann89]

He's no Steve Smith but he is what we need...

LOL are you serious. That is ONE signing out of who knows how many FA we met with.

While numbers have not been disclosed I don't think he would have left charlotte without a contract (presumably to contemplate his destination) if the gman was waiving a large contract at him.

But have some of you tell it, no free agent wr was gonna sign with the panthers. 

[pantherclaw]

It's a sorry offseason when people are excited about this signing. I just hope we didn't pay above vet min.

he scored more tds then most of our receivers last year.

I hope we didn't over pay for you

Lol

from somebody who has vocally scorned many of the team's decisions this offseason, this is a solid signing. Cotchery is a starter level player.

[Carl Spackler]

I can be happy about this, right? Like, he's not firing his agent as we speak and declining another visit, and this isn't another Panthro prank, right?

[Kuech the Sneak]

Nice, keep em coming. Cason and Thomas next
