Barton Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 I aint gonna lie. I'd love to see Keyshawn come in and be a #3 WR for us. He'll get a starting job somewhere though. Ya think he still loves the dwayne jarrett pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

124 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Ya think he still loves the dwayne jarrett pick? I think deep down he knew that Jarrett was going to be his replacement in Carolina... just maybe he didn't think it would be 3 days later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cant Hackett Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Updated: May 1, 2007, 3:22 PM ET Johnson cut a month after being paid $3M bonusESPN.com news services Johnson Veteran wide receiver Keyshawn Johnson was released by the Carolina Panthers on Tuesday, the St. Petersburg Times reported. "They said they wanted to get younger,'' Johnson told the newspaper. "That's fine with me. I'd like to go somewhere and help someone win another Super Bowl.'' The move came a month after the Panthers paid Johnson a $3 million roster bonus. While Johnson spent last weekend working for ESPN as part of the network's NFL draft coverage, he told the newspaper he would like to continue his playing career. Johnson, 34, has 814 receptions for 10,571 yards and 64 touchdowns over an 11-year career. In 2006 he caught 70 passes for 815 yards and four TDs. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2855468 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think with 6 or 7 receivers in house that New England will look to add Keyshawn but you never know with the way they're dishing out the money this off-season. Don't think he would return to Tampa Bay and Gruden but who knows. I see Keyshawn possibly landing in New Orleans, San Diego or Denver, but thats just me.

gang_green03 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 If we let go of McCareins, which is likely, or can get something for him I'd be up for signing Keyshawn. He obviously can't run but is still a good redzone target and is that big receiver with great hands that would benefit Pennington. He runs his mouth a little but please nobody bring up character cause he's not that bad and its not like Coles didn't talk a lot here. He did fine in Carolina. He'd be a nice addition for a short term contract. He's still a solid possesion guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawngnome o-line Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 as much as i would love to see key run around in green and white....he would prevent our youth to develop. i'd rather throw stuckey or smith into the fire as our slot guy than an aging 35 year old keyshawn. i still think he could play, but he's a #2 WR at best and would be a nice slot receiver. i could definitely see him land in baltimore, SD, denver, philly, GB or even SF. all of those teams have promise to win their respective divisions....and are need for a 2nd receiver or a solid 3rd WR option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chainedlyric3 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 Keyshawn still has game and would be a great asset to our NYJ Team. We definately need another impact reciever to hold us over if we want a chance this year...Not to mention possibly trading for a better TE.

jetophile Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 OK, I'm going to chime in on this Keyshawn business. First of all, Holy Cr*p, HAH. 'Just Gimme The Damn Pink Slip'. Actually, there were some pretty funny kernels in that book of his, my favorite being, "...O'Donnell was like a stiff puppet in the pocket." Snort. And he wasn't wrong as far as the Jets went on that score (no pun intended), I'll give him that. Prudent as a rookie? No. Smart even if not? Nyet, Comrades. Funny? Yeah. Tearing off his helmet after his first NFL TD, that I also forgive. When and why I soured on Keyshawn....You, Meshawn. Me, Jane. Well, I am. Somewhat. Hehe. First off, Fat Bill coddled that guy. It's a mystery. He put up with behavior from him he was notorious for punishing (except turning a blind eye to a cranked up LT - rings, you know). So Keyshawn and his personality, he gets drafted to flourish in the limelight of the primo arena to feed such things, that being NEW YORK. The world stage of sports, yo. But here's the thing: he can't shelve his professional jealousy, the professional jealousy that some midget from Hofstra is stealing. It's obvious to everyone in the free world except him that tandems that win games are more important than bruised egos. Cry me a river. And please do give me a flashlight. Those are indispensable when your car lands upside down in the same damn river. Kvetch, complain, demand, the Jets don't keep him. A mistake? Depends how you want to look at it. A cancer, he winds up in Tampa, a place where he is NOT going to get the damn ball, a venue where accolades as opposed to NY are not even comparable. He gets a ring, runs his mouth, and gets fired, precisely as he deserved. So here's my final analysis. He could've turned out worse, our mini-Terrell. He also could've turned out FAR better. Yes, he takes hits. Yes, he shows up more times than not. But he's an underachiever, all things considered. He could have accomplished FAR more over the length of his career. He could have been elite, but couldn't get out of his own way. His attitude convinced him he wasn't lazy. He was wrong. And I'm sticking by it. Lest we forget his MONSTER game vs. the Jaguars in the PO's, the most complete game of his career, I give credit where credit is due. See Big Mouth Block! See Big Mouth Score! See Big Mouth bring his Big Mouth to the field! See Big Mouth get the damn ball because he shut up long enough! Hats off, there. Would I prefer him to be here than NE? Yep.

Jet Moses Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 Jetophile is a tough act to follow but- When all is said and done, Keyshawn Johnson finishing his career with the Jets... It works for me (if the price is right). It would make one helluva story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definately need another impact reciever to hold us over if we want a chance this year...Not to mention possibly trading for a better TE. I'm all for adding playmakers but Keyshawn Johnson just sucks. He hasn't been good since he left NY. He's a possession receiver and not even a good one anymore. I don't think he is that much better than Justin McCareins now. He's just a name now. Why do any of you even care about Keyshawn ending his career with the Jets? He bashed New York and Jets fans after he was traded to Tampa. All Keyshawn Johnson cares about is Keyshawn Johnson. Plus, he will demand to start over Jerricho Cotchery which is a joke at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
