Ted Ginn joins the Panthers on a one-year deal

[CRA]

- Pat Yasinskas

Everyone excluding Joe Adams' status on the bubble may be in for a rude awakening. He is no special than the rest of them, and I have been saying that for awhile.

Gettis, Armanti, Pilares, Adams, Ginn....plus whatever rookie and probably another vet.....

I think Smitty and LaFell are the only two sure things headed in....Ginn probably a lock for return ability. That's it. Everyone else better try to earn a spot

[DaveThePanther2008]

Either way it is a win for us. if he fails to take the #3 spot, he'll still be an upgrade in the return game.

I just wonder when the axe falls on similiar players we have on the roster. AE, Pilares, Adams. I would imagine Adams is the front runner to stay. He had some talent as a WR.

Only a 1 yr deal? He will prob be gone next year

i don't know about adams talent as a receiver, at least demonstrated last year, but i think that heading into the season that AE, pilares, and gettis are all likely gone. at least two of them for sure.

A friend of mine just saw Chris Harris at the airport wearing a Panthers shirt... He's a coach with the bears now btw.

I love me some Hitman. It's not really thread worthy so I thought I would just pas that along.

[Guest BlueBoyRamses_E1b1a]

addition without subtraction is always good. Now, D.Will for some picks would make free agency a success for us. Nice!

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

He will really open the underneath for Tavon Austin lol..

As for Joe Adams he is not immune to anoutright release if he shows little this offseason..Espy Nom be dammed!

[PantherPhann89]

Nice...we've been in the need of a good return man since Mark Jones.

[koolkatluke]

I want a WR so bad that I'll poo on the ones who actually contribute to the team as well.

That's lol

[Pimpdaddy]

I like this signing...I originally wanted Cribbs but this will work....Its like one year deal, if you want to eat the next year you better perform btch! hahaaa!

[spartan_pantherfan]

i love the approach.

I imagine its the same with Mitchell, they let the Ginn know " Come here and be a KR/PR, but WR outside of Smith is up for grabs, you want to be one prove it and you may have cemented your future here. " Should help us get some interesting prospect and hopefully light a fire under everyone's asses.

Unless there is some off the field stuff going on. I still think Gettis size, speed, youth and cheapness will give him a shot at the 3rd WR job.

WHY??

Gettis - Pro's Good Rookie Season showed Promise

Con's Very Injury Prone

AE - Pro's When he has the ball he is an amazing talent in the open field

Con's He doesn't seem to get open enough to get the ball

Pilares - Pro's Hard runner and showed some flash in the KR game

Con's Slow and coming off injury

Adams - Pro's About the same as AE

Con's Fumblitis and was in dog house most of the season. Everyone Cringes when he touched the ball.

If you had to keep two I would Keep Gettis and Pilares
