Big talk from basement dwellers

Guess they don't get that he has gotten better every year and his best year with Glennon tossing him the ball! Welp, Cam will get him a huge contract in two years! Glad to see other teams have dumbasss fans also

Hixson and Ginn replaced! Now Britt for Lafell and Matthews/Cooks for Smitty

btw, this signing does nothing for me. signing JAGs (and thats being generous here) isn't going to cut it.

someone tell me why this is a solid signing and not just roster filler.

First of all, we don't know how it will play out so all we can do is speculate.

 

He isn't our savior, but he can contribute and be a good role player for us. He's extremely athletic, and reminds me of our Ginn signing last season. Could turn out to be a good addition. 

 

I definitely do not think Gettleman is done acquiring FA WRs. If we get a stud in the draft, I believe our WR cops will be solid.

He is wearing 11, per the Panthers' roster on Panthers.com.

Cool

You will like Underwood.  He plays hard and is talented.  He deserves a two year deal.  He is a good person too.

a bucs fan?

Nice!

He probably just wanted to avoid wearing those XFL uniforms.

Because most of the time, what a player has done in the past is an indication of what he will do in the future.  There are exceptions of course, but for the most part its true.

 

Not that I am against the signing, especially since we aren't spending a lot. 

 

I see what you mean.  Like Mike Mitchell and Ted Ginn last year.

Underwood is a great dude and a great teammate.  For a team looking for bargain wideouts, you could do worse.  Ted Ginn is a better player though, no other way to slice it.

 

Underwood is serviceable working underneath and thats about as far as that goes.  He isn't a catch in traffic kind of guy  Good news is Cotchery can fill that role for you.  Underwood is best used to stretch the field with his straight line speed.  Ginn had that ability as well but what Ginn has that Underwood doesn't have is quickness and change of direction speed/acceleration.  Underwood isn't anywhere near as able with the ball in hand as Ginn was.  He isn't going to give you YAC's unless he is already behind the defense.  

 

Not a bad signing but if he is anywhere above your #4 option at wideout, you need to upgrade the position more.

Cotchery is the equivalent of legadu nohands.
