Marcus Peters new contract and what it means for Bradberry

[Tbe]

Bradberry is type of guy who disappears as soon as he gets paid. We’ll regret signing him.

If Bradberry was let walked it wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit.  I like him as a #2 CB but giving him shut down money.  No way in HECK!  

Agreed. I rather have Jimmy Smith who I think we can get for about 10-11m a year due to his age

Give him 14 m a year and he’ll leave to go be a full time turkey burger chef

Shaq was WAY overpaid

Divide the years by the guaranteed. Not the total, Shaq's money, his guaranteed money is respectable.

Shaq played great beginning of the season. Just like Luke. Both of them were top 5 in tackles. The DL sucked and they couldn’t help that. Shaq deserves that contract. Someone else was going to give him that or even more. I rather keep Shaq than Bradberry. I’m not paying 12m for a corner who doesn’t make enough game changing plays.

I think we're all saying the same things. My point is for those who were saying Bradberry is going to get $14 million per year, the Peters contract makes that highly unlikely, although I won't make any assumptions with Hurney at the helm.

But you also have to keep in mind that Peters' contract is heavily guaranteed. For comparison, Shaq's contract is only half a million less per year but has a full $4 million less in guarantees despite being a year longer. With that being said, I think Shaq's contract is a good ceiling for the Bradberry contract and would give us an extra year of Bradberry's prime as the salary cap continues to rise. It'd be great if we could get him for closer to $10-12 million but I think we have to be prepared to pay a tad more to keep him out of free agency. I wouldn't be so keen to move on knowing for now we've only got Donte Jackson signed for next year.

Bradberry is severely overrated. But he is still a solid CB. I think he’s a great #2. We need to find a #1 CB and move Donte into the slot. Not a fan of Shaq’s contract so I hope we don’t overpay for Bradberry. I would imagine the scheme the new staff implements heavily influences whether Bradberry will be back or not.

Do you know what overrated means? He's never in the conversation of CBs. He's just average. He's been good then bad. He's not consistent. 

[Jared Patterson]

I know I keep saying this, but I want to keep Bradberry hopefully for around 12 million a year and sign Logan Ryan especially if we hire McDaniels. Move Donte to the slot and draft a FS (McKinney or Davis) and try to resign Boston for very cheap and all of a sudden you have a Great secondary!!!!

He should be 9-10/yr.  Will likely get 12+

Given the % of cap between Luke and Shaq now, we're limited to where we spend the rest.  I would prefer on the line.  He's been super solid but I think he may be going elsewhere.

I rather let him walk. Sign a Jimmy Smith or Byron Jones for 10-12m. Cut Poe and have some extra money to sign another cb like a Logan Ryan

This is a weird comparison

Marcus Peters PFF grade - 84 (elite)

James Bradberry PFF grade - 59 (below average)

Marcus Peters has made multiple Pro Bowls, James Bradberry has never sniffed one or even been in consideration

Why are we comparing a corner who performs below average for NFL starters to a multiple time Pro Bowler?

Panther fans are delusional about no player more than James Bradberry;  we should be looking at the contracts of depth corners as a comparison, not elite ones.

 

things will progress in typical Hernia fashion...bruhs we know whats comin...
