Keyshawn Johnson released from Carolina.

Johnson Sucks, he really, really sucks, Johnson sucks he really, really SUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK SSSSSSSSSSSSS!

Waterboy reference..nicee

"The days of Darnerian McCants..." hahaha! That's hilarious! He was decent for 1 season. 1. He had all of 53 catches in 3 seasons for us, and '03 was the only year he did anything of note with a whopping 27 catches.

We have a good over the middle pass catcher who can block and is very effective in the red-zone. #47 anyone??

Isn't Keyshawn the same guy who wrote a book telling teams to "get him the damn ball" ??? If we sign him and make him a #3, the we'll have a the most expensive #4 in league history. We need to build continuity and stability with this offense, especially with Campbell and the WRs. Bringing in a 34 year-old malcontent who will end up bitching when not enough passes come his way is just an awful decision. IMO

You are obviously a stat happy guy. Now when McCants was here they hardly threw him the ball but when they did he came down with it. Rarely was the ball thrown his way and he didn't come down with it and I'm not just talking about Madden either. It's not so much having someone to catch passes over the middle, it's about taking pressure off of the other skill players. Yeah you're right we have Chris Cooley and also Santana but seriously did Lloyd make you feel all fuzzy inside by how much attention he drew to himself ? Maybe so, but not me. Johnson will garner attention from opposing defenses which will in turn free up Sanatana and Cooley. Oh yeah and Keyshawn wrote that book in 1997,...10 years ago. So basically your against it because of the money that is already in our top 3 receivers ? I just see Johnson as an asset because he is a proven WR and he's 6 fn 4 !

James Thrash blocks, plays teams and keeps his mouth shut.

Thrash can't get on the field because his career is about over. I like Thrash on teams, but lets not act like he's out there for even 1/4 of our offensive plays. Keyshawn isn't worth bringing in for us, but he has definite upsides for a team that needs a 2nd or 3rd option.

Give me a break, there are people here that would seriously want this jackass on our team??!! :doh:

I hate to be the first one to point this out, but you are obviously not versed in the Redskins' Nation Monk for the Hall Party Line. Monk played in a completely different era where passing yards for receivers where nothing like they were during the time that Keyshawn compiled those stats. Not trying to take away from Keyshawn- because I think he has had a solid career and wouldn't mind him here because he fills a niche that no one else on our team currently does- but you should definitely not drag Monk's hallowed name, or stats, into this discussion.

Secondly, if I hear someone else say that we have a great WR corp I'm going to get belligerent. We DO NOT have a stand out receiving corp outside of Santana by any stretch of the imagination, and it actually is insulting to me that anyone could utter that regrettable opinion.

Yes, well filial piety has a way of making certain topics untouchable doesn't it? Not saying Keyshawn is better than Monk, but people keep talking about how horrible Keyshawn is but that is based on personal prejudice rather than empirical data. Apologies for my irreverence, I guess I should just let sleeping dogmas lie.

I think people just don't like Keyshawn because he's a douchebag.

We've hated him for years and just because he were to be on the Skins doesn't mean any of us would like him any better (like Dallas fans and TO).

Adding another receiver to disrupt the schedule Campbell is already on with his current receivers would be bad enough even if it were somebody younger with more of a future ahead of him than Keyshawn.

I also think the height thing is overrated with wideouts.

No thanks.

For what logical reason would you think height is "overrated" for a WR?

I agree...you get to live to post another day ;)

I mean he isnt a douchebag anymore. I mean havent you guys noticed his maturation in recent years?
