KK wants 17 million a year?

Per Rotoworld.

 

If this is true...dueces!

 

Panthers would do right by themselves to keep Addison and all the other linemen and draft Dline this year as well. Move in Butler inside.

 

Solomon Thomas would be a key addition as well. 

 

Would a tag and trade scenario work or do those usually don't? I don't remember it ever working out in the draft?

Alright, I've been notorious for not reading whole stories when I post trash on the tinderbox, so I'll fact check this statement:

Quote

"If it happens, it happens," Short added. "I need to be professional about the whole situation." Every player would like to land a long-term deal and avoid the tag, but that might not be possible in this situation. Short is likely looking for a deal near the $17 million per Fletcher Cox landed from the Eagles, and the Panthers were reportedly not willing to go over $15 million annually last summer. Like with Josh Norman last offseason, the Panthers could be headed toward an extended standoff with one of their top defensive players. For what it is worth, Short did say he would sign the franchise tender if it came to that, but a report was quickly leaked to Pro Football Talk walking that comment back. Jan 3 - 10:50 AM

This is old news. KK looked for that price range last season, and really they need somewhere to start.

This is a report assuming that KK is looking for Cox money as well, and does not mention his agent or himself speaking of $17million.

Hold your horses on this one.

IMO it's always been DG's intent to tag him. The sides were too far apart during Rd 1 of negotiations. That sealed KK's fate IMO. I didn't and still don't think he's That level of elite.  The tag buys an awesome talent for another year, gives Butler more time to develop, and provides more data for evaluation. Win-win.

Thanks for clarifying.

    • damn I wish somebody would sign him. This has been going on for weeks.    I think if the team wanted to sign him we probably would have heard something about interest on our part.    Or any TE. It looks like they have set that room. And we have taken guys two years running, a guy like this would be blocking them. We need to see if they have it or not. And we should see if Tremble is gonna ever do anything.      In general, with the TEs
    • Dude, there aren’t rose colored glasses big enough for you to call this “not a bad draft.” BC was not a good pick. He was taken with the 6th pick in round 3 and he’s been a backup OL. Tremble also wasn’t a win. Another 3rd rounder who’s easily replaced. Only reason either of them started games is because of injuries or a lack of a better starter. Chuba’s got heart but he’s had one solid year behind a solid run blocking unit. Other than that he’s underwhelmed and like we saw with Dowdle and Foreman, it’s not hard to find cheap pickups who perform as well. Horn has been a good starter but honestly that draft had so many solid starters we could have taken. With as many picks as we had, him and Chuba is absolutely a bad draft. We needed OL and BC and Brown was a terrible effort. You clearly didn’t watch the Senior Bowl if you thought Brown had a chance in the NFL. The huddle draft folks wanted Humphrey and Smith and instead we got crap and Mahomes was the winner.
