Keary Colbert Re-Signs With The Lions


Recommended Posts

I'm as guilty as anyone else in thinking LBF acts like a troll most of the time. However this time all he did was post relevant news on a former player's current whereabouts. Can't really fault him there.

I'll be honest with you, that's what he does most of the time.

Really, I'd say about 85 percent of his posts and threads are legitimate and objective questions about the Panthers. But since he's not "a fan," the other posters accuse him of trolling and "smack."

Now I've seen some smack, but more often than not it's in response to someone else. Yes, he posts a lot over here, but who cares?

ive always pulled for him to do well. when he played for the panthers i sold him the rims and tires for his car. (realy nice bmw 750) he actually called me one night to ask if i knew a good tow company cause he had a blow out on the way home, and i set him up with a one of my buddies that owns a tow company and actually went and picked him up and gave him a ride home. hes a super nice guy and i hope he does well with the lions.

Gotta keep things in perspective. The perspective here is that Colbert is still an NFL player while we sit in front of computers making fun of him. Who's the bigger joke... :lol:

He got a major Payday in Den and My hats off to him and his agent. If the NFL thing dose not work out he would be a great salesman.

Lions re-signed WR Keary Colbert.

Colbert, 27, had 47 catches as a rookie in 2004, the year Steve Smith missed all but one game with a broken leg. Colbert has since struggled to separate in numerous locations, be it due to weak burst off the line and/or route running. He's a poor fit for new Lions coordinator Scott Linehan's vertical offense and probably won't make the team.

I posted an article here last year when Seattle picked him up from Denver. In Seattle they were bragging... "He looks like Jerry Rice in practice." I didn't even know he ended up in Detroit, but I suppose it's poetic justice he's with the Lions.

He's one heck of a practice player... he had some good moments in Carolina but there have been questions about whether or not his heart is really in football.

He definitely has the physical tools, just not sure if he has what it takes under his helmet or between his spine and sternum to be great...
