Default Keyshawn shunned by Chargers: It's gotta be the the Jets or Broncos next?

It would seem impossible that either the Bronco's Mike Shanahan or the Jet's Eric Mangini not trying in earnest to sign KJ in response to the signing of Randy Moss to New England. Green Bay would be an obvious landing spot, but Keyshawn has loftier (see below) visions.

WR Keyshawn Johnson wants to play for a contender at this point in his career, and his agent expressed Johnson's interest in playing for the Chargers in a phone call to the team yesterday, sources said. Sources also said the Chargers told agent Jerome Stanley they are not interested in Johnson. Johnson was released Monday by the Carolina Panthers. With 70 catches for 815 yards last season, the 34-year-old former No. 1 overall draft pick is seemingly still a capable receiver. But the Chargers already have multiple receivers of similar capabilities.

HOW F-ing STUPID are the Chargers? Keyshawn is a VERY productive, talented WR. Not what he was in his hey-day, but still quite good. If not for Moss, I'd DEFINITELY look into bring him to New England. Who the Hell does SD think they have lining up there? Glad to hear it, though.

Meshawn can still play. People in Charlotte were shocked to see him released. It was assumed he would groom Jarrett. But perhaps the Panthers were afraid of what MESHAWN might teach his understudy. He's a strong personality, set in his ways, and maybe NOT the best fit for many teams. IMO, it will be funny if no one wants him!

He can still be a good number 2 or 3 receiver. Someone will take him, but he might have to be willing to play for a lesser team. I think the Titans are a good place for him to go. They have a shot at a wild card and are sorely in need of receivers.

Beautiful. Fine with us. BTW, in what world do teams think:

a) Keyshawn made big money LAST year

b) signing Keyshawn would require "big money"

what about the Steelers to replace Plaxico, who they still haven't found anyone to replace him, Ben had good chemistry with Plaxico.

They have similiar skill sets.

I think he will end up in New Orleans. He played for Sean Payton in Dallas, the Saints need a vet WR familiar with their system and Keyshawn needs/wants to play for a contending team.

Seems like a perfect match to me.

I dont see it
Colston - tremendous player
Meachem - first rounder
Henderson - hes competing for #2..had a great year. deep speed..big play threat

I don't think Davis will contribute this year. I really didn't understand that pick with Jarret and Rice still on the board. I think it'd be smart for them sign Johnson.
