Why Weddle won't be a Panther

[t96]

May have been posted in one of the free agency threads, but this deserves it's own. This is in response to his (and Olivier Vernon's) agent posting about Vernon's contract.

Gonna get paid, and not by us.

Capital BS.

Again, top Safeties are getting $6M annually, nowhere near DE money. 

[SmokinwithWilly]

Translation. Dude, you just got paid. Golden Corral is on you tonight bruh.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

we won't sign weddle because he has an agent that tries to get the most money possible

just like, ya know, every player in the NFL

We have a bodacious front 7, anyone could play safety here. We need a SS anyway.

And the Panthers could never go undefeated (close to it) or make a Super Bowl, especially without Kelvin Benjamin

[Mr. Scot]

While I'm far from certain that we're going to land Eric Weddle, I'm not sure I'd interpret that tweet as any significant evidence one way or the other.

[Riverboat Ron]

So Eric Weddle is signing for vet minimum?

I dont even want weddle I want another kurt coleman , cheap player that contributes

Given what safeties have been getting paid so far this offseason, now could actually be a good time to get him.

Some agents are better at it than others, and his agent just got Olivier fuging Vernon paid more than JJ Watt.

 

FYI I don't tweeter so I have no clue what he was saying, nor do I care. Point is that his agent is the best in the business.
