Here's our free agents

I think Bell will return at a low pay. Bell ain't really impressed anyone with his blocking. A few teams might want him as starter. But I have a feeling Bell will be resigned for another 3 yrs. and hopefully only as a backup role. Hardy we know is gone and I thing Dwan might come back as well. The rest we can release and not worry. They can be replaced. I needs are to sign Cam and Luke to long term contracts. Then start putting weapons around Cam finally this off season.

Most deal never reach the end.

Dickson at 1 mill per with 500,000 signing is fair.

Bell I know he's hared here, but LTs get huge money. Like it or not bell is the best LT on the team. 3 million isn't even in the top 20 for LTs. Chandler got 3 years 8 million........

Greg at 10+ per with insurances seems fair. less than .1% chance he's back.

Others at vet mins.

Cannt sign everyone for the cheapest contract in history. If the panther don't pay bell or hardy, some team will. Orher got 4 yr 20 mill as a RT, collins (worst than bell) got 5 years 30 million, 10 guarr. The market is the market- bell, hardy will get multi-millions.

This is why it would be best to take the money you would give bell and invest it in a better tackle.

Or

Make LT in the first round such a priority. We need to Scout the guy we deem fit and go get him. Even if we have to trade a late rounder to do so

Might end up having to use the franchise tag on Byron Bell after multiple offensive player of the game performances and his downfield block in the Arizona game.

Disagree! He ain't worth using the franchise take on. The guy is avg. I whether them let him walk and we look at other FA Tackles if their are any good ones better then Bell this off season.

That was sarcasm. I doubt Webb goes anywhere. He is cheap, and a good utility guy. Realistically you need 3qb's between team and ps and I dont know of any others that are fine with playing WR and special teams as well

[B.BERSIN]

If we don't re-sign a single player on that list, we'll be just fine. No real current game changers. Decent players but outside of Dwan and Ed, nobody who really contributes

Cole DID contribute.

[CarolinaPanthers8789]

There's a max of four players that I'd want back on that list.

[Everfrost]

I could have sworn Fozzy was just on a one year deal as well.

 

 

He did but he is a ERFA same as Byndom

 

They both should be here again next year 

[O-Ther]

Cole DID contribute.

 

Pie for repping my sig

[Ricky Spanish]

Bell is going to get 4-5 million a year and the Huddle will implode. 

 

This is no longer Hurney country where good feels = big $.

 

This is is the cold dark land of Gettlemagic where you either perform or leave.

Give a look at the class and if ross retires.......... guess whos the best?

Last year my draft wants where 2DBs, 2OTs, 2WRs, and a best ava form TE/OL/Punt returner/RB/DL. Nothing has changed this year, but dave gos BPA and he's done ggggrrreeeeaaaat.

There's only about 15 true LTs with great feet in the whole league. The term dancing bear, its a rare player that all teams want after a stud QB.

Bell isn't the worst LT like the huddle states daily. He's around 20s and will get a nice contract.

[MrBubba]

I like Webb plays multiple spots so get a mobile 3rd QB and a special teamer and emergency WR. I would bring him back
