Panthers DT Kawann Short remains optimistic though 2 sides no closer in contract talks

Love KK and I'm drunk in Amsterdam right now. But GMan gonna GMan. We have the deepest set of DTs in the NFL. No one's going to push the front office around. That said KK and his 11 sacks makes me wish he would accept a life time supply of bojangles for vet min. He is one player that is without a doubt one of the best and if Gman wants him he has to pay him.

the rumor is he wants $17 million/year and dave's top dollar offer is $15 million

Man, that's a lot of dough.  Short shouldn't expect to get that kind of money based on what he's done so far.  I think he's looking at going into the season and earning that kind of amount. (Perhaps more if he really does damage to offenses this year.)

He will be 28 by the end of this season. He's no spring chicken.

While true, that is 2 more solid seasons of hopefully outstanding play we'd miss on the hopes that a rookie will pan out quickly in Butler.

    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
    • Bryce youngs first starts for 3 years   51 of 103 49%     153 yards avg 6 ints 2 tds   But this is the year he turns it around
    • His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
