I'm honestly surprised it took till just now.

 

I'd have expected them to have been in full 'he who must not be named' mode for at least a year at this point.

 

"Sorry?  I don't know who you mean.  What was the name again?  Aaron something?  Nope, afraid it doesn't ring a bell."

Well, that's more than we did for Hardy

 

We don't have player pictures posted outside the stadium.

 

To be fair, this is a closer comparison to Carruth than Hardy.  But even so, if you were to tour BOA, I doubt you'd find pics of either one on display anywhere.

I wasn't actually saying that we have pictures of players around BOA Stadium. I was referencing their level of commitment to Sharper. I don't believe that we gave Hardy that type of support, although we probably couldn't have afforded to pay him what he wanted anyway.

It's New Orleans.

 

(arguably, the most ironically nicknamed team in the entire league)

 

And it's been known that Sharper was guilty for quite some time.

I really don't get how you have players that would do something bad like this when you are already graced to have/had a career in football. I guess just because you are an athlete doesn't mean you have morals or brains. Give me a chance in the NFL , I would be quiet as a mouse and as clean as a whistle....*hint hint* Panthers if you need a fill in for sir purr, water boy, practice squad or anything ...I'm here

Lol. Nice story out of context. The picture is actually of Tracy Porter, arm outstretched as he ran to the end zone with the pick in the Super Bowl. Darren Sharper is in the background. They're doing some changes in Champion Square, and don't want Sharper anywhere around.

It's not as if it was a picture of Sharper. He just happened to be in the background of one of the greatest moments in New Orleans sports history.

He was still in the image, and the team still left it hanging.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Per Bill Barnwell  Vikings bring back a familiar face Vikings get: WR Adam Thielen Panthers get: 2026 sixth-round pick, 2027 seventh-round pick A reunion between Thielen and his former team seems too easy. The Vikings are struggling with injuries at wide receiver and a potential Jordan Addison suspension. The Panthers want to see what they have with their younger wideouts, and Hunter Renfrow's emergence in camp as a potential fourth or fifth option could squeeze a roster spot for Thielen, who doesn't play special teams. The problem is Thielen's $6.25 million base salary. The Vikings obviously would prefer the Panthers cut the 34-year-old and pick him up for free, but Carolina already paid Thielen a $1.5 million roster bonus earlier in the offseason, suggesting it expected to have him. His salary isn't yet guaranteed, but it will become so if he's on the roster in Week 1, leaving the Panthers until then to make a decision. If he does get released, he isn't likely to get anything close to $6.25 million from another team, so he also is facing some uncertainty. All sides involved probably would need to give a bit to make a mutually advantageous deal work. The Panthers would eat $1.5 million of Thielen's contract, getting two of the three picks the Vikings got from the Jets in the Harrison Phillips trade in return. Thielen would take a $1 million pay cut in return for having the remaining $3.8 million guaranteed. The Vikings cleared out almost exactly that much when they made the Phillips trade, allowing them to absorb what's left of Thielen's contract as part of the deal. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46053274/nfl-preseason-trades-2025-team-offers-players-draft-picks-contracts

      From JoeBucsFan. Teams don't usually waste 2nd round picks like that. Kind of sounds like they think he just doesn't belong in the NFL.
