Panthers Free Agent Signings Thread

For those wanting Neal, he signed with the Cowgirls.  Besides, we really need to sign a DT to keep our options open during the draft and safety is merely on the wish list.  If no FA DT is signed, we will have to spend a day 2 or early day 3 selection on DT.

To be fair reddick is a good player. 12.5 sacks last year. Even if it was a one off season that’s a good contract for it.

Reddick had the best game for a defender last year. He 5 sacks and 3 FF against the giants.(plus Tack etc) 

7.5 sacks and 2 FF for 15 games 

OR

12.5 and 5 FF for 16 games

Seems teams knew about this and didnt want to pay for the giants game. Plus hes a 6'1 230 OLB, only Von Miller has been able to put up big number close to that size. Still my favorite signing thus far even with the Temple deal.

Is it a fake account 

If you’re referring to the Charles Johnson tweet, I edited that out of my post after realizing it was from 2020. Still, knowing that Gurley wanted to be a Panther is a good sign he may sign a team-friendly deal. Especially coming off injury.

No somebody commented on bleacher report that it was fake. Is this dude legit?

So how would y'all feel about this?

This would be our fournette pickup.  To mirror what Tampa did last year.  Buy low on a really athletic guy who has a little wear and tear on him.  Gurley and McCaffrey would be a dream backfield.

Todd Gurley isn't very athletic for an NFL RB at this point his knees are held together by twine and duck tape.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
