Olsen Contract Tweaked

So why wouldn't the rest of our key players with multiple years left on their previously-negotiated contracts just bitch for similar incentives? Apparently, it works in Carolina. 

Because they didn't name their kid after the owner, and obviously don't have as strong ties to the Panthers organization as Greg Olsen.

Greg Olsen gets an extra $2M in incentives. Can hit them by reaching benchmarks in catches, rcvg yards, yds per catch and indiv. honors.

ha...

first reception of the season for 1 yard @ 1 yard per catch for a personal record of shortest reception of his career = incentives met.

cha ching!

Marty Hurney hired in part to clean up the Thomas Davis and Greg Olsen situations. Check and check.

I'm not sure how to take this comment.  Is this a one time thing or is it added on each year for the remainder of the contract?   To me it seems like much to do about nothing if that's all he wanted.  Hard to believe Dave would balk at that.

    • Ultimately it's up to the other safety prospects to clearly outplay Scott. I think when that happens on tape against other teams it'll be addressed. I think none of them have done that definitively and consistently yet. 
    • Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.     
    • I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
