Panthers | Team lands K. Johnson

I absolutely hate Keyshawn, and if I was a Panthers fan I'd be pissed that my team picked him up because I'd rather lose without him than win with him.

That said, as a neutral observer and football fan, the move vastly improves their WR situation. I hate the guy, but given their terrible WR corp., they now have something they simply didn't before: a legit #2 WR.

These people down here are considering this one of their best free agent pickups in franchise history. I am not joking!! That is all that was on the radio down here yesterday and today. Yesterday it was he's at the airport, at the stadium, there negotiating we'll break in if he signs or any news. Its freaking horrible when you get that excited of a guy with his baggage.

that's crazy. he's an upgrade, but i'm not sure he merits parade treatment ;)

I am pointing out the holes in their logic. I think that Keyshawn is an overrated bum who is on the downside of his career. He is a locker room cancer who will not help any team that wants to contend. Apparently everyone else thinks that he would be a good addition to a team that was one step away from the Superbowl. Well I think that all of them are wrong.

Keyshawn is mediocre and his baggage makes him a net negative.

Can you follow that wilso? If you cannot follow the thread pipe down.

I'm pretty sure I can follow your logic. If that's what you call it.

Keyshawn is mediocre you say? This statement is not supported by the facts or in this case hard stats. He does have baggage so you got half of your equation right.

Why would they go out and pay a aging 34 year old receiver, with ALOT of baggage, to be the #2 guy. Why not go out and get a younger receiver who you can put beside smith and grow for few more years. There were better receivers out there, and WR was one of the most glaring needs this team needed to address. Much like us. Yet they sign a couple DTs backup lineman then a over the hill, Diva WR. I cant stand the Panthers, or their fans, they are fair weather fans. they show up half way through the 1st quarter and leave before the game is over. Not a lot of tailgating. I can not wait until we come down here next year(2007 season) and beat that ass. I hope a lot of skins fans show up for that one.

please name this younger receiver that'd be gauranteed to not suck next year and is still available.
Also keep in mind, he's getting 3.5mill a year, which is far less than the guys we got, and that Joe J wasn't considering carolina in any way.

What is K. Colbert and D. Carter?

Ok let's get this straight. In my first post I said Keyswan was a jackass, but he will really help Carolina at the #2 spot. There were a bunch of other receivers out there that would have been younger and better, but the cheap ass owners for Carolina decided on Keyshawn. He is a solid upgrade IMO. All I know about Carolina fans is that many of them used to be Redskin fans.

yes he definitely will help carolina. not a great receiver but hes a huge upgrade over whatever #2 they have as it is.

If anything Keyshawn will give them a reliable receiving threat other than Smith. Honestly I've always thought that's what the Panthers have been lacking. Great offensive line, just no wide receivers other than Steve Smith.

Their O-Line was not that good last year, especially at run blocking, pretty decent at pass blocking. I have a philosophy where I dont like signing old guys. Some agree , some dont. I just think there may have been better options than Keyshawn. Carolina is one of those teams concidered to be high revenue, that because of teams like us supplying the income, but they still dont put the money out in the players. Actually, they put alot of money in players that they shouldn't (Dan Morgan-always injured , Deshaun Foster - cant stay healthy as a part time player) I am not a carolina fan. i do think he will help take some pressure of Steve, but w/ Colbert getting healthy and another year, I think he could have been just a good.
