I was against signing Reid...

I can see having concerns about his concussion history if we were signing him long term. 

A 1 year deal?  Nope, no concerns, just hope he stays healthy and is in shape.

The concussion history is really only half the story though.

The concern comes from the fact that he has a concussion history at a position that involves a lot of hitting and his being known to play with a hard-hitting style.

Put all that together and yeah, it's something to think about.

Getting signed by a team probably doesn't do much for proving the "collusion" that he and many seem to believe in so very strongly.

I hope for the best for Reid and the defense's performance.

it actually does prove the collusion. the collusion lawsuit was started while JR owned the team. the VERY FIRST new owner who joined the league signed him. that lends credence to the existing owners having some kind of agreement.

That's the tactic I figure his lawyer will go with, but I don't really think it's that strong an argument.

For one, If there really was collusion, you'd expect Tepper to have been brought in on it. Remember, Tepper was the league's choice more than he was Jerry Richardson's.

More to the point though, it's not like Reid was signed the second Tepper took ownership. There was plenty of time between that point and now.

A soggy paper bag is better than Colin Jones. Literally nobody should be against this signing. If you even have the slightest of reprehensible doubt with this signing, it’s not Eric Reid the FOOTBALL player. 

And lmfao @ injury concerns. A one legged Reid is still better than Colin. He blows.

    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
