Jadeveon Clowney visiting Panthers

[Krovvy]

Clowney had a good season last year. He's an up and down player, but a solid veteran.

I feel at this point he should be ring hunting, but if the Panthers offered a multi-year deal then it would be possible to sign him. Maybe around 10-12 million a year with incentives? Three year deal?

Yeah he might just be trying to get the Ravens to raise their offer, solid shot at making the playoffs again if he wants a ring

hes been around the league. I think he does want a chance to play in front of his home crew.  Be close to family etc.

It would be nice, but I think the Panthers will have to give him a multi-year deal. Which I'm all for as long as it has incentives in case he has another down year.

whats a fair offer for clowney?  2 years $15 million?  thats a slight bump up from the 1 year $6 million he had from baltimore last season

Yeah the hometown edge is the only thing we have going for us unless they want to overpay. Ravens are a little low in cap space as well

You'd think him and Wonnum(both USC alumni)have talked about possibly pairing up and coming back home...

He had a good season last year and as the worst team in the league the Panthers will definitely have to pay the 'bad team' tax. I expect more like 10-13 million a year. Unless he really wants to come home and has his mind made up.

I haven't a clue. It's really all about the guaranteed money anyway.  That's all both sides care about.

I think Spotrac had like 7.5-8 per year

Completely manageable. And that’s far more than his contract last season.

I think it will take something like 2 years 20 mill to get him here.

[MHS831]

He needs an incentive based contract.

Interesting angle. Hopefully it plays a role.
