Blackmon available for trade? EDIT: blackmon suspended for season

[Zaximus]

you guys are nuckingfutz.  The guys had 2 DUI's and then suspended for violating the NFLs substance abuse policy.  If it looks like a train wreck, it probably is. he may be a good WR but what good is that if hes in the Betty Ford clinic and not on the field

 

 

We are a team that does not develop WRs and is even worse at drafting them.   It's been over a decade since we struck oil with Steve Smith and since then, no one notable.   It's a risk worth taking.  A proven talent instead of a random 2nd/3rd rounder we'd end up taking that probably wouldn't pan out.  I think we're a playmaker on offense away from pushing this team over mediocrity.  He may need a change of scenery and team to get his act together.  It could allow us to 100% focus on o-line in the first (hopefully was already anyway, but this definitely lets you).

Will probably end up in Indy or something. I wanted him originally and he is a player but off field stuff might cost him having a long career.

thats exactly what this team needs right now, a cancer like Blackmon to undo everything the Panthers have worked to accomplish.

[TheRed]

This sounds like bullshit. PFT (really?) is literally the only place talking about this. I highly doubt this is legit.

 

Besides, I honestly would rather not even have the guy here. We don't need this in our locker room.

 

Anyone see him knocking down a security guard last week while he went out of bounds? He didn't even help the guy up.

Blackmon is a cancer?  Where's the evidence of that?  Dude making dumb mistakes that hurt himself != lockerroom cancer.

......did he score?

[Floppin]

Yeah, I've never heard anything about him being a bad teammate. 

 

Being a complete moron and driving drunk...TWICE and failing a drug test, sure...but being a locker room cancer.....ehhhhhhhhh

[TheRed]

......did he score?

 

Nope. Out of bounds.

[Cary Kollins]

I've never seen a security guard or anyone else that close to the field with their back turned.  Come on Jacksonville.

No more of a cancer than a guy who has knocked out two of his team mates in practice and has been known to demand the ball and cause his QB to lock onto him for games so he throws into double and triple coverage.  Sometimes it is worth the risk.  I don't think Blackman is a cancer to the team, just to himself.  He's not at star status like Moss or TO or Ocho to even be able to do much.  I also don't subscribe to the fact that one player is going to bring a team of grown adults making millions down.  It takes more than that.

[Cary Kollins]

Some guy said Blackmon could be traded on a TV show?  sounds too legit

[mbarbour21]

Nope. Out of bounds.

Oh, cuz I was thinkn maybe it was his TD celebration. Haha! Nvrmind...

[micnificent28]

It's amazing the play it safe conservative views of this board. Play it safe for what? Undo what? A team that Is .500 for the first time since 2008 under a lame duck coach? Really what damage could he possibly do? We've been playing it safe and reaping no benefits for years. Meanwhile the risk takers like the bengals rise to relevance strike gold (burfict) patriots (dennard)rams (jenkins). Every kid thay hits a bump in the road isn't rae curruth.

[FattyFatFat]

I'd love to have him if he was cheap. Get him for a fourth and I think he's worth the risk.
