Star is probably gone, along with Norwell. No way Hurney piles that much money in OG.

Wouldnt mind seeing Peppers back for one more try at a SB.

Probably going to tag Gano 

Wouldn’t mind seeing Bersin back, dude is clutch

Everyone else can go

[CarolinaNCSU]

Pep, Gano (Tagged, hopefully), Dickson, Bersin are the ones I'd have no issue with, and would hope Bersin doesn't make the roster.  Could see the herpes that are Amini or Teddy Williams still sticking around, though. 

[ChuckWag78]

Pep. Gano. Amini. 

[LinvilleGorge]

Peppers and Gano. Would love to keep Star and Norwell, but they're going to take bigger deals elsewhere. The rest can go.

[WOW!!]

Pep, Gano, and Amini..

[TheSpecialJuan]

- Bring pack -

Peppers, Gano, Dickson and surprise re-signing WR Charles Johnson

Everyone else is walks

[Snake]

Norwell screw the rest. 

[The Huddler]

I believe we have legit, young replacements at both OG and DT with little to no drop off  

 

Let em walk. 

 

Go spend money on a player that will help a position of need. 

 

 

Like DB DE or WR

[PantherPhann89]

I'd like use to resign

• Peppers because at 37 he made a bigger impact than almost every other DE on the team.
• Star because of his impact on the d-line, freeing up LB's
•  Norwell obviously because of his ability to Cam upright and
• Gano obviously  because of kicking accuracy this past season, but only if we don't think that we can find another Butkner
• and I'd also like another look at Gachkar, in camp

Pep, spend the money on Norwell (tag if you must), let the rest go if they wont sign minimum or near-minimum deals. DA fuging blows, Gano will get overpaid for playing decently this year and we can get a K late in the draft, the rest are JAGs at best.

[panther4life]

I'd like to keep Peppers, Star, Gano and Norwell. The rest I wouldn't even extend an offer to until down the road if we find ourselves needing them for depth. 

It seems unlikely we can keep Both Star and Norwell but one of them should be doable and I am thinking Star is the more affordable option.

I would love it if we made Allen Robinson a priority in free agency. 

Other primary players of interest would be Sammy Watkins and Eric Reid. 

 

 

[TheSpecialJuan]

You know damn well we're going to re-sign Bersin.

[Panthers8969]

im gonna loe it if we resign stone hands dickson. Replace him with trey burton boom instant win

 

Pep, byrd, gano, amini, maybe teddy, maybe norwell/star
