All Panther fans that say we overpaid...

Please just shut up already I'm reading these threads and you sound like morons. We HAD to pay that much, what is our defense without Charles Johnson who's tempted by his hometown 12-4 franchise? You HAD to give him a huge deal...Beason deserves that money if not more, and frankly I'm not satisfied with just Stewart and Goodson... and btw Thomas Davis was getting 10+ tackles a game before he was hurt. You would be the same people complaining about JR not spending anything If Johnson, and Williams walked, and your the same people that bitch when its hot out, hate the fall, and complain when it's cold...Name me another last place franchise that kept their most talented free agent's and have them motivated?

The fact is that Hurney has only once had a good Panther player leave in FA because he got overbid. That was the bitch Julius Peppers. Hurney overpays his guys. Always has, always will.

If I'm correct we offered Pepper's a hefty deal, but he left because he didn't want to play here anymore...And your right losing Moose didn't hurt us at all...

According to Peppers, and you can look this up if you don't believe me, Peppers would have stayed in Carolina for $6 million more than Marty offered him.

LOL like Julius is the "victim" in all of this.

I would have rather overpaid Charles Johnson than give it to the still unproven Cam Newton. CJ has the potential to be a top 10 or maybe top 5 DE. Other than a franchise QB, it's tough to overpay a guy like that. Especially one who just turned 25 and is also stout against the run.

Maybe the Panthers overpaid for CJ right now, but as people have noted, we had to in order to make sure he didn't sign with the Falcons. And also, that deal will look a lot better in a couple of years when the salary cap balloons to $140M and other DE's deals will dwarf what CJ got.

      Apparently CSW lost his starting job to Thornton last year. If he can stay healthy I bet Thornton keeps that NB position.

      I member him staying after practices with only to see he was wearing heavy weight vest, one of his trademarks. He also put in 10 years, right? People forget he was the ST stud that called the snap and made sure everyone lined up right. He was one of the "glue" guys that bought his "lunch pail" to work.... He was a willing solider, all teams need a couple of them. He blocked for sooo many panthers RBs- Davis, lane, Williams, foster, goings and when there was huge injuries he took over the starter duties and had a couple 100 yard games. If you followed hoover, he took the perfect RB path cause he was just a slow heavy one himself....

      Walker likely depends on a couple of things. What exactly did Dan promise him, to start with.  How much other interest he actually had for a starter job at high pay is another question. It isn’t outside the realm of possibility that he could stay on as a swing tackle waiting to take Moton’s spot when it opens.    I can’t get myself to consider Icky as a viable anything until we see him back on the field.     Hunt seems to be a team player and good guy but I don’t think he is worth what he is being paid. I have him tentatively earmarked for cap causality in the near future.
