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

Win-win. The trade was lame AF but he had to go given his situation.

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

Diontae Johnson separation first 2 weeks: nada

Bryce Young average air distance of throws... less than nada

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 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.
