Diontae Johnson had “sigh of relief” when he was traded to Ravens

If he can’t make it work with Lamar he won’t have any options left. It’s a contract year so he better make the most of it…

So you are saying that when he fails with Baltimore, he will have to come back to us with his tail between his legs because nobody else wants him??

He’ll be fine on a winning team for a while, he is out of NFL Siberia and doesn’t want to go back. 
 

Which I am now lolling over talking about shipping him to Siberia before, when we are it.

We should have traded him to the Patriots and just swapped 6th round picks with them (since it wouldn't be any difference in picks pretty much) just to piss off Johnson

We should have just traded Jackson for a late 5th or 6th and called it a win. Johnson was a known entity when we traded for him and it was stated that brining in a disgruntled WR in a contract year when there isn't a QB worth starting on the team was a bad idea by multiple posters here. That's on Morgan 100% for wasting all that cap and ending up in this situation.

Also, it is a good look getting him to a good place. That's the only win here for the Panthers and they need all the help they can get when it comes to perception of guys in free agency and such.

You have to view everything that was done in 2024 through the ‘eliminate excuses for Bryce Young’ lens IMO. It only makes sense that way.  
 

If you allow for that, you will see that Diontae fulfilled his purpose.  

and I do mean everything.  Draft, FA, all of it. And what was not done…. Same.

maybe he is generally a good teammate and liked.....maybe Canales couldn't handle him.  That IMO seems like a reasonable assumption.  Think Sheena or someone basically hinted at that too.  His issues in Pitt seemed to of also been more Tomlin related than pure teammate related. 

and on top of that, rookie HCs sometimes are weird as they try to learn and build there own. I'm 100000% convinced that is why Cam Newton had to go when Rhule came here.  Rhule was such a buffoon and ignorant....he didn't want to deal w/ a loud vocal vet who knew stuff. 

 

 

Yeah, when they brought in the anti-Cam with Teddy two gloves, I knew he was scared to death of Cam. He needed guys he knew were such pussy-os that they wouldn't laugh when he did moronic things like break his sunglasses while demonstrating drills. 😂

    • The reality though is that there just isn't a traditional #1 pick type of player in this draft to begin with. He might have been below Marvin last year, but I don't think he'd have been below Nabers. And if you think he disappears in some college games, then you're only looking at the box scores, I guarantee you not a single NFL GM will say he disappears in games when watching the tape. Arizona's offense is a MESS this year, the new coaching staff is beyond bad and the fanbase is screaming for them all to be fired, our OL is awful, our QB is playing like utter garbage, and we don't have another weapon to attract any defensive attention.  Teams are double and triple teaming him on almost every snap, and when combined with the OL and QB issues, it's just impossible to get him the ball sometimes.  And even when our QB forces the pass to him, half the time it's not even catchable given how poor he's been playing. And even despite all that, he's still 3rd in the nation in yards. I've also seen more WR rankings having Burden over Hunter than I have seen Hunter over T-Mac.  If we had a true outside #1 WR, then taking someone like Hunter (or Burden) instead of T-Mac would make more sense as if Hunter were to play WR in the NFL, he'd more likely be used a slot guy like Godwin or Kupp.   There's a reason most mocks/analysts who don't list Hunter as a CB/WR (or just Athlete) list him as a CB.  Because it's his better position and the side of the ball he's more likely to play in the NFL, partially due to his wire thin frame, I don't see him holding up long term as a WR.
    • This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.
    • All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
