So I was looking at the list of free agents currently on the Panthers roster. Who on this list do you hope we resign after the new CBA is in place. If you want you can factor in who you think we draft or who we actually did draft tomorrow.
URFA
21 Gerald Alexander SS
50 James Anderson OLB
56 Abdul Hodge ILB
25 Marcus Hudson SS
95 Charles Johnson DE
47 Jeff King TE
61 Derek Landri DT
8 Rhys Lloyd K
31 Richard Marshall CB
3 Matt Moore QB
63 Chris Morris C/G
64 Rob Petitti OT
88 Dante Rosario TE
6 Brian St. Pierre QB
34 DeAngelo Williams RB
53 Jamar Williams OLB
27 C. J. Wilson CB

Restricted FAs
87 David Clowney WR
44 J. J. Jansen LS
57 Jordan Senn ILB

Who do I want to resign (not in order of preference, in order originally mentioned):

James Anderson
Marcus Hudson (wouldn't be upset if we didn't though, he was ok on special teams, ok in his limited playing time, nothing special that a mid or late round draft pick couldn't replace)
Charles Johnson
Derek Landri
Richard Marshall (provided it's a reasonable contract)
Dante Rosario
Deangelo Williams
CJ Wilson
Jordan Senn (if there's room, he's good on special teams)
JJ Jansen

Must signs are bolded

Not sure on Rosario - he just can't catch the ball when he needs to. Not a good trait for a tight end.

[The_Cannon]

I'd take King as the back up to Shockey instead of Rosario

[JawnyBlaze]

Not me, King needs to go. Agree about Rosario with drops, but it really does take some pass catchers 2 or 3 seasons to get rid of the dropsies. Look at Roddy White.

Rosario is already head and shoulders above King. King has nothing to offer a non-John Fox offense. Rosario at least has the potential to be a producer.

Anderson needs to be let go.

[JawnyBlaze]

Why do you say that? He's just starting to be a high level producer. Sure he missed some tackles occasionally, but the big plays he makes more than make up for it in my opinion. And probably more importantly, we need the depth and insurance in case Davis doesn't make a full recovery.

[Double34Trouble28]

JTG why do you think Anderson needs to be let go? The idea of him and Davis on the outside with Beason in the middle doesn't excite you?

[JawnyBlaze]

Speaking of which, I think you forgot Thomas Davis, The_Cannon. He's a must sign IMO too, but at a slightly reduced rate or verbage in contract to protect against more injury.

[The_Cannon]

Someone is going to be on the outside looking in at LB next year. With Beason, Connor, Davis, and Anderson all healthy its going to be an intense training camp.

As much as I like Connor, Beason has to be in the middle and its just unfortunate that he has to be stuck behind him. I think Beason, Anderson, and Davis is our best 3 to start, just due to Connor's restrictions at OLB, he can't do that.

I guess......I don't see anything special about him.

[Double34Trouble28]

I just think those three can cover so much of the field, and with Beason in the middle, a full year under his belt, and Rivera in his ear he will become more disciplined. At least I hope.

Personally I feel Rosario could be productive if utilized correctly unlike he was under Fox.
