You Can Only Sign One Player in Free Agency Who Would it Be?

[C47]

The courts ruled. NO charges at all. Since this is a fantasy thread, my wet dream would be that Getts is running a smokescreen and guys like Igo and the Observer are being complicit as usual when it comes to basically their second employer. The coach, the players, they all want him back fighting next to them and so does a large number of fans. The courts found the case to be foolishness. It was foolishness.

Sad days in Panther land for some. ON TOP OF THAT! You hand him to the Falcons?!? If Greg Hardy loves them and the coach and the team put their names out their why do them and a lot of your fanbase such a disservice? This is worse than Pep in my eyes. Sad.

 

No....the courts found Hardy settled with his accuser. That's not the same thing at all.

 

As for the answer to the OP question....I thought long about Maclin and Cobb, but ultimately.....my decision would be McCourty. Why? A play making Safety would take this Defense to a whole other level of ridiculousness. Having a Center Fielder like McCourty with a still very nasty front seven and our two emerging Corners would just be silly. Get Cam a LT in round one if the board is favorable, and a couple of WR in the Draft as well as a mid-late round RB.

Actually the state dropped all charges because it didn't have a case due to not being able to find the alleged victim who was not cooperative. The prosecutor never said that Hardy settled as a matter of law, he just believes that Hardy did based on some evidence that he knew about, but wasn't privy to.

This thread really is a fantasy land. I am the only one keeping it real.

You can dance around words all you want, but the prosecution having "reliable info" of a settlement means just that. He settled. It's alright, anyone with a brain knew it was going to happen.

With Dez and Demaryius off the market, probably Suh actually. BPA.

More realistically, Torrey Smith.

That is not a charge. There is no victim by choice.

Again....he didn't have the charges dropped because he proved his innocence. He had the charges dropped because the state couldn't proceed without the accusers cooperation. The courts didn't find the case was "foolishness", they found they couldn't continue because Hardy reached a settlement with his accuser.

With the law, words mean everything.

Then you should realize what "reliable info" means. Or what the "settlement with Hardy, heads off any civil lawsuits she might file in connection" means....

 

It's not speculation. He settled. It's ok to admit.

I do realize that. I also realize that Hardy is an innocent man in the eyes of the law, regardless of how anyone wants to spin it. The criminal charges were dismissed, right along with the case.

Because he settled....

 

My point was the courts didn't realize the case was "foolishness". They were forced to throw it out because Hardy was able to reach a settlement with his accuser. Those are the only facts we know in the entire case. Everything else is speculation and up for debate. 

[Proudiddy]

Dees.

DEES NUTS.

[PantherFanOne]

I would take OT Byron Bulaga. He could hold down the LT position untii our LT draft choice gains enough experience to take over that position.

For legal purposes, that "reliable info" doesn't amount to a hill of beans. It is really immaterial. If that could have been used as actual evidence pertinent to his criminal case, then they would have gladly used it. The charges were dropped because the state did not have a case without Holder's testimony. They couldn't find her, whether Hardy paid her or not. Why are we arguing about this?
