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.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
