Panthers acquire special teams 'ace' Colin Jones from 49ers

[Gallagher]

Colin Jones

Second year player out of TCU. 6-0' 208 lbs. Had six tackles in 13 games last year. No INTs, Sacks or FFs. I hope we didn't give up more than a 2014 7th rounder, or Jimmy Clausen for him.

he was mad fast on madden last year

Youre right, despite the large influx of dollars an talent into special teams this offseason, along with an additional year implementing the system and an additional assistant, we have absolutely no reason to believe Brian Murphy isn't a good coach.

Large influx of dollars? You act like we spent $50 million on special teams. Do you even know how many special teams players did we added Growl?

i mean seriously, if we didn't go and get this guy, posters like Growl would be all like "this team is so complacent, god forbid we actually go make some roster moves to improve our team, grumble grumble snarf"

now that we make a move, it's "that damn front office conspiracy, making moves to get new guys on the team just to cover for a deficiency garble snarf"

get the fug outta here with that noise

Regardless,

They looked bad this preseason

Well said. For some people, every news is bad news. It's just sad.

Couldn't even find highlights of his. Here is a short video though. He's from Texas, for what it's worth.

While I do appreciate the move, most of our acquisitions this offseason have been "ST aces." Onotalu, Nakamura... yet ST is still garbage. It's not the players.

[The Special One]

Our special team coverage need all the help it can get.

Most of them were aces? which ones?

a Special teams unit is more than 3 players. And again, maybe we should just fire our special teams coach every year until our unit gets better. That will surely fix things.

[Darth Biscuit]

What does this guy do, punt and KO cover teams?

[YoungPanthers89]

Ran a 4.34, sooo he's fast...

[Peppers90 NC]

some people confuse "special teams ace" with not being able to get on the field except for special teams

[Growl]

Lol literally every FA we signed this offseason with the exception of Tolbert was named "a great ST's ace who should absolutely turn that aspect of our team."

If you don't remember it then fine but don't act like the rest of us weren't paying attention.
