I'd say his hopes of winning that collusion case are kind of dwindling.

(didn't really think he was gonna win it anyway)

I think he still has a case.  Everyone can see the Nike Kapernick deal and Nike's success made this move possible.  Before that no one in the NFL was touching him.  Whether that came from up top is what they have to prove or at least make a case that it was strongly possible.

If we hadn't lost a safety to injury, pretty likely we weren't touching him either.

The trouble with Reid not getting a contract was most likely due to his injury record not collusion and teams didn't want to take that risk bringing him in. A few teams did offer him a contract but he turned them down because he would have been a back-up and not a starter which he did not want to take a back seat and spend time on a bench instead of on the field.

Pretty sure the Seahawks were interested in him also. Must’ve seen the Panther situation as the best fit for him and he could start immediately.

The Panthers give him a better chance of being competitive than the other two teams.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
