There is zero chance that Hardy gives by $12M and signs a hometown discount....and why would he?

 

If he is found not guilty, there are teams out there that will sign him to a large contract.  So, he could keep the $12M and sign a good deal with another team.

 

Greg has shown by his statements in the past that he is all about the money.

 

He is GONE.

He wouldn't need to give back money AND play for the min. That would be ridiculous. Playing for the min next year or even just a few million would almost ensure he's back here, assuming of course that he's found innocent.

The NFL should give the Panthers their cap space back. The NFL is the one that caved to pressure.

 

The NFL will be rewarding the Panthers in other ways. We won't be going to London anytime soon. The Panthers logo will be more noticeable in NFL Shop advertising. An extra night game or 2 in primetime next season. An extra compensatory pick.

 

That could be the tinfoil hat talking, but IMO thinking no backroom deal was cut in the Hardy fiasco is just naïve.

Depends on your job....

many that post on this board likely would have faced worst disipline. Many less

My wife's company would fire her. Mine company likely doesn't...but decent odds exist I would

The worst some of us would have gotten are slashed tires a brick thru a window and maybe a night in jail. .. Since he is a sport celebrity it's a lot different situation with bigger consequences. .. if any of us had been in the situation it wouldn't even had went to a court..

I honestly think that 1,2, and 4 need to happen for it to be an option.  If he plays for league min, he'd essentially be giving money back because lets even say on the low side he'd get 5-6 mil on the open market, thats 4-5 mil essentially given back to the team.  I don't think he will be back, because I see zero chance that he plays for the league min, we shall see though.

What happened to the Panthers as a result of the whirlwind of domestic violence media attention is a tragedy.  Greg Hardy really picked a bad time to have a bad time.  

 

I forgive Hardy for that situation.  While he is proclaiming innocence, he can not publicly admit to feeling sorry for the events or else he hurts his chances of winning his case. I am sure the man is remorseful for his actions whether he is completely at fault or not.  But you will  not hear that side until after the trial.  

 

I want Hardy back.  I want something for that wasted 13 million dollars and if that means getting Hardy at a discount, I will take it.

      Grading the Panthers' 2026 Draft Class

      By frankw · Posted

      I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...

      Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
