Didn't see it posted anywhere, sorry if it is as it's rather "old" news (at least in internet terms)

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81ecced6/article/report-no-salary-cuts-during-lockout-for-panthers-employees?module=HP_headlines

"He told us the only one who had to worry about losing any money this year was him," one Panthers employee told the newspaper.

Richardson promised his employees that they'd be taken care of even if the labor stoppage extended for months, telling them he had planned on the contingency well before this offseason.

Interesting parts in bold.

But But But ESPN sed Richusenz was teh cheepz!!...

He knows that even if the lockout extends for months, it is bad business to lay off employees. The ones who can easily find jobs and are most valued are the ones who can go elsewhere and often do. The ones who are content to be laid off and collect employment and come back are often the ones who can be replaced and aren't always your strongest workers. So in the end you retain the ones you could very well lose, and lose the ones you most want to retain. So it only good business sense to keep everyone if you can knowing this will be resolved by late this summer if not sooner. Now if it were going to extend into next year, things might be different.

Sounds as if he truly cares about his employees which is a good thing.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.

      Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
