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.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
