James Jones speaks about Panthers

[TheMaulClaw]

Seems more like a wash to me.

 

and that's if we draft a WR that produces immediately which is no easy feat in the NFL.

I can think of quite a few wrs that played well their rookie year. Keenan Allen and Tavon Austin last year.  There are plenty before too in recent years.

[Kuech the Sneak]

I'm not saying Jones doesn't want to play here, but the dude is unemployed. You seriously think he would verbally reject any team he was asked about?

I don't think he was asked, he just let it be known

Then you know how long it took for the light to come on with Austin...some were writing him off in the first half of the season.

They finally figured out how to use Austin.  Keenan Allen played solid the whole year.  There's no reason a 1st round pick with great talent can't be helpful.

I'd love to SOMEHOW get Jones/Cotchery/Rice

 

But would be ok with Jones and Cotchery

 

Something I've been anticipating though is how they approach their jersey numbers if they sign here. They BOTH currently wear #89. Doubt Jackie would let either of them have it but I think if they don't even try to ask for it, that'll work wonders with the fans.

Sure a first round WR can be helpful but I wouldn't want to depend on them turning into a bonafide number #1 from the start.

He had 700 yards with Favre too as the third receiver and a rookie.

 

 

 

 

Great points you've constructed here.  

 

Anyways this might be totally unrelated but the teams with the best scouting and GMs haven't even brought him in to talk to in person. Wait in fact no teams have......

[Gators33319]

James Jones would be a solid signing.

[Catweisers]

Both of these guys 6'1'' I think who ever we get will be tall.  Play to strengths QB loves to pitch high get some hands up there.

[philp]

Uh oh.. Both wear 89..

Jones and cotchery wear 89

[Rise of The Hive]

A player interested basically = we are not interested.

[El Chingon]

Lance Moore is visiting w/Steelers this week so they might just sign him as a replacement for Cotchery.
