I know he has not been convicted yet and we should wait until the outcome.....but will J.R? We all know he is old school and values his teams rep(especially after that horrible incident years ago).Seems like Hardy likes the sauce and the night life and thats a bad combination for staying out of trouble. Question.....will the front office put him on a short leash and give him a second chance or will.J.R want to cut the cord regardless?

This is an interesting thread. Of the 32 owners, if there WAS one owner that would be so bold as to release a franchise tagged player because of something like this, it would be Jerry Richardson. I still don't think it will happen though. But he certainly won't be here past 2014.

We've been hearing one side of all this and people are already declaring him guilty and shipping him off.

 

That's a good point, but I think it's all about how we perceive different players. If it had been Thomas Davis or Kuechly arrested, I'm sure more people would be giving them the benefit of the doubt than Hardy. But things Hardy has done and said and posted on social media have definitely clouded people's perception of the person he is compared to others.

This needs to be settled in court.  Everyone is rushing to judgement for good reason.  Hardy is a big dude who plays with a few screws loose, and this wouldn't be the first time an athlete beat up a female.

 

On the flip side, some of the stuff that came out in court makes me want to know more.  I know we won't get the exact medical report about the girl, but we do need to find out more about the causes of her injury.  Like, were she thrown all over Hardy's extensive collection of weapons, not only should she have indicated injuries, there should also be parts of her on the weapons.

 

Again, we don't know what really happened, and we probably never will.  What the team has to do is figure out if this is it for him, and give him a chance to redeem himself, or let him go fearing another Rae Carruth in the near future...

If he's indeed guilty then I cannot and will not defend his actions, but the facts all need to come out first.

 

as fans we or most of us are waiting, but JR cares more about the team and if history is any indication...Hardy might just be gone already.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers.

      Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
