Fletcher Cox is Holding Out For a Deal: What about Short?


The Huddler

Recommended Posts

Im watching NFLN like a tool..

 

Fletcher Cox is holding out so far for a deal.. Hes under contract for the 2016 season.. Hes MIA

 

Is Short? Pretty much same scenario.. I know we started later because of our post season success.. But im curious.. Is Short present? 

 

Honest question from a fan that I know others will be wondering as well

 

Go Panthers

No chance, that's why the Godfather has our stars locked up a year ahead of time.  Cox was from the 2012 draft.

So they probably placed the 5th year option on him and he wants a long term deal hence the hold out. 

 

KK is in a completely different situation. He has no fifth year option.

There hasnt really been any hint that he would hold out, plus we are trying to get this done well ahead of time rather than roll the dice and see if he has another good year.  I am betting we get him locked up long term before the season starts, DG values his hog mollies, he will pay him, plus I dont think he wants to endure the hell of having our fans question him allowing another guy to develop under our staff and then walk to another team.

Here is a good article on the Cox subject.  Eskin in Philly recently came out and said that Cox and agent had turned down $60 million in guarantee's.  Cox's agent went on the radio to say BS.

Neither Cox or Short are going to get Suh money but they will probably better the 6 year, $95 mil, $60 mill guarantee that Dareus signed last fall.

I doubt DG gives a rip about fans questioning him. If fact I'd be willing to bet there are very few things he cares less about.

Fair point.  Then again his comments about all the hell he caught over tagging Hardy after the domestic violence stuff was brought up suggest certain points weigh with him.

    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
    • He wasn't a JAG, he's been a starter every year of his career. Didn't turn into the superstar it seemed like he might his rookie year, but I think part of that has been being misused. Guy was/is a baller.
