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.

    • Yeah. Probably will be close. I am not rooting for anyone don’t really care that much.   Same for the AFC game, don’t really care. Except it is Sean Payton, I always like it when he loses.  But it’s New England, I can’t root for them. It’s going to be 23 degrees at kickoff in Denver, wind will 12-15mph, dropping to 13 degrees by 7pm with snow predicted to start before halftime. 
    • Most people will agree with this in principle. But it's situational and also depends on the results you're getting. We were middle of the league in sacks given up. Had the 27th passing offense. And if a few instances that went our way turned out differently we very likely could have been staring at another 5 win season. For the highest salary cap percentage to the OL in the entire league. While we had basically nothing at linebacker and not much at all consistent pass rush to speak of as we were leaning on two rookies. And despite all that our defense which has been on a lopsided end of investment compared to the offense managed to go from league worst and giving up historic single season points in 2024 to middle of the league in 2025 which is quite impressive all things considered. So yes the investment in the OL versus the results certainly matters or at least to should to anyone that would like to continue to improve and also maybe finally win another playoff game.
    • Still think that if Carson Beck is there on Day 3 you have to take him. QB depth in drafts has been atrocious as of late but what he is good at translates very well to what the Panthers need a QB to do.
