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.

    • I was checking out Chris Brazzell II measureables, and I thought they looked suspiciously familiar. Turns out it was true, almost identical measureables to former Panthers DJ Chark circa 2023. I even checked Terrace Marshall Jr results, and honestly isn't that far behind them.   I know this isn't unique for just our team, but we seem to specifically have an obsession with trying to make this tall lanky speedsters work for us. I admittedly wasn't that high on Brazzell, and when I watched the tape I didn't really see that 4.3 speed, and a strong wind seems to tackle him.   I really liked most of the draft, including getting Hecht in the 5th when I graded him as a #1 Center in this draft. I'm rooting for the guy to work out, especially since our HC and OC made their bones as Wide Receiver coaches. But Brazzell is the only one I'm kinda meh on. I was hoping we'd trade up to get Big Citrus, or if we went WR I liked Ted Hurst much better. We'll see though. 3rd rounders seem to be coin-flips for us (see DJ Johnson/Matt Corral). But I'm rooting for the guy and for this experiment to finally pay off.   I haven't seen anyone else post something about this, so just thought it was interesting and passing it along.   #keeppounding   -------------------------------------------------------------- AI Overview   Chris Brazzell II and D.J. Chark both possess nearly identical elite deep-threat profiles, highlighted by their tall, lanky builds and blazing sub-4.40 speed. Chark was slightly faster, while Brazzell offers a marginally heavier frame and longer wingspan. [1, 2, 3, 4] The side-by-side physical and athletic testing results from their respective NFL Scouting Combines outline their comparable profiles: [1] Metric [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] D.J. Chark (2018) Chris Brazzell II (2026) Height 6'3" 6'4" Weight 199 lbs 198 lbs Wingspan 78.5" 80.1" 40-Yard Dash 4.34 seconds 4.37 seconds 10-Yard Split ~1.50s (est.) 1.52 seconds Vertical Jump 40.0" 40.0" (pre-draft) Hand Size 9.25" 9.0" Analytical Comparison Size & Build: Both receivers offer an excellent catch radius with lanky, outside-threat frames. Brazzell holds a slight edge in height and an even more significant advantage in wingspan, giving him a massive target radius. Speed Profile: Chark famously recorded the fastest 40-yard dash time at his combine, while Brazzell was a standout at his event. Both times are elite for their size, translating directly to the "field-stretching" and vertical playmaking abilities that define their games. Draft Status: Chark was selected by the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second round (61st overall) of the 2018 Draft. Brazzell was selected by the Carolina Panthers in the third round (83rd overall) of the 2026 NFL Draft.
    • I still reserve my right to bitch about how incompetent the Panthers are at running a football organization and point to the mountains of evidence in support.
