Jarrett smartening up


CanadianCat

Recommended Posts

Dwayne Jarrett will arrive in Charlotte a month earlier than required in order to start getting ready for the 2010 season.

The highly disappointing Jarrett sees an opportunity for playing time and also likely wants to make a good first impression on new receivers coach Tyke Tolbert. Still, his play to date inspires no confidence that Jarrett can secure a starting role opposite Steve Smith. The Panthers need to address the wide receiver position in the draft or free agency.

I think one thing that gets over looked is that he is ONLY 23. When I was 23 I needed time to smarten up. Maybe now, cause its now or never

I think a younger WR coach will help.

I agree.

I know he's been in the league long enough, but I really feel it's unfair to judge our receivers based on last year. Jarrett catches just about everything thrown his way, even though he may not be open enough to warrant throwing to all the time.

I'm not saying he's worthy of a No. 2 spot or anything, but I think he's worth keeping around another year as a good possession receiver.

He is going to give his all. This is his last year on his rookie deal and he knows that if he is a bust this year, he will not get paid. Like most players they usually do something in a contract year. Too bad they have to wait for years to actually get it together. It is a good reason why all contracts should be performance based and one year in duration.

    • i think i go in the opposite direction of most. my ideal retirement is living in some old downtown area in a flat above some shop or something.  life out in the country was just something i got real tired of. My kids actually miss some of living out there, which i understand. that was where they grew up for the most part. 40 acres with a 2.5 acre pond. it was beautiful, but also way too much (and too expensive) for me to keep up with. 
    • FLASHBACK: I remember back when ESPN was just starting--he was their anchor.  They used to show stuff like Rodeo and field hockey--I remember laughing when he went to a commercial mocking a cycling competition in Utah (or something similar--I made that up) and I laughed.  I told my dad, "We may have us a new anchor when we get back from commercial."  When they came back from commercial, Berman was looking very serious and he said, "Any comments by me do not reflect the views of ESPN....The men and women who cycle are dedicated athletes and we are honored to shine light on their sport." (Paraphrasing).  Dad laughed hysterically. My first memory of him--and that was like 1980.
    • Might not have a team without them. Although that probably applies to the Panthers, too.
