Panthers sign Eric Reid to 3-year contract

I spoke with a safety at the Senior Bowl who had met with Panthers GM Marty Hurney. He said Hurney told him Eric Reid brought some "edge" to the defense but it hasn't been the same since Josh Norman. That convo made it clear to me Carolina would re-sign Reid

I hope he bounces back and can contribute. If he can't, then we basically only have two NFL caliber CBs on the roster. I'll need to check my math on this, but off the top of my head, I'm thinking that ain't good.

idk. let me know thats very complicated math

He is paid better than Lamarcus Joyner, Harrison Smith, Earl Thomas, and Malcolm Jenkins. This signing is pretty mediocre, especially since Reid had zero leverage. 

No, every one of those guys has a higher average yearly salary on their current or most recent contract.

Only Joyner has/had a smaller total contract because it was a 1 year deal.

Joyner and Thomas will be free agents.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
