Charles Johnson Update...


Kurb

Recommended Posts

From @CarolinaGrowl Steve Reed, currently the best source of news we have.

Just spoke with DE Charles Johnson on the phone. Panthers GM Marty is in Miami trying to convince Johnson to re-sign with Carolina.

Johnson said Atlanta and Denver are also interested in signing him.

Charles Johnson said the Panthers have made him a very good offer, but he's weighing his options at this point and nothing is done.

DE Charles Johnson “(The Panthers) threw an offer out but I have to see what happens. We can’t do much until Friday.”

The fact that Marty Hurney flew to Miami to meet with Johnson gives you a pretty good idea that he's Carolina's top priority in free agency.

Pretty much what I thought.

It's between Panthers/Falcons/Donkeys

We are going to offer the most cash, Atlanta is going to talk like they are about to win the SuperBowl (they aren't). Fox is going to play the "I drafted you card" + $$

I would say we have as good a chance to keep him as to lose him.

No way, money still talks in the NFL, that is why it took so damn long to get a new CBA to begin with. If you throw enough money to CJ, then he will come back. Beside's, who wouldn't want to test the market, especially if it's the first time you have ever been considered a prestigious athlete in your life. Johnson will realize the Panthers are serious about winning right away after they lock up DeAngelo Williams, then CJ will follow suit.

    • Also, just for clarity, is this thread meant for general discussion of Bryce Young, or discussion of General Bryce Young?  
    • The word I feel most comfortable using as a descriptor is "inconsistent". Haven't really seen anyone disagree with that. Consistency being one of the things I value most in a player, that makes me lean toward moving on. But he does still have both time and opportunity to prove otherwise. Mind you, having a streaky quarterback isn't exactly a new thing in Charlotte (you could argue it's been the norm). Delhomme was notorious for starting slow but finishing strong. He could sadly also find hos way into ruts that were difficult to crawl out of. Newton, on the other hand, was often known to start hot but fade late (the vast majority of the 2015 season followed that pattern) though it could be argued that was a team pattern as much as it was Cam's.  There are definitely some fans for whom this is always going to be a bridge too far. (or too short) Realistically, it's not impossible that he could still have a good career even with those issues. It's a damn sight more difficult, though. And arguably, less likely.
    • Oh, I did, and they weren't based in emotions either. Granted, characterizing them that way gives you an easy out to avoid responding to them. Similar tactic to dismissing the other guy's points with "nah, you didn't really watch the games" which saves you having to debate what he said. Strikes me as a kinda lazy way to go, but hey both elements are still back there if you feel up to trying later.
