Panthers Free Agents 2012

stole this from walter football...

Carolina Panthers Free Agents:

Salary Cap: TBA.

Dan Connor, ILB, Panthers. Age: 26.

Don't expect Dan Connor to be back with the Panthers; otherwise, he'll have to play behind Jon Beason. Connor is talented and young, and could easily be a starter somewhere else.

Geoff Hangartner, G/C, Panthers. Age: 30.

The Bills jettisoned Geoff Hangartner, but he bounced back and actually performed pretty well for the Panthers at right guard.

Geoff Schwartz (RFA), OT/G, Panthers. Age: 26.

Geoff Schwartz played well in 2010 at both right tackle and right guard, but he missed all of 2011 with a hip injury.

Legedu Naanee, WR, Panthers. Age: 28.

Antwan Applewhite, DE, Panthers. Age: 26.

Mackenzy Bernadeau, G, Panthers. Age: 26.

Thomas Williams, OLB, Panthers. Age: 27.

Jeremy Shockey, TE, Panthers. Age: 32.

Omar Gaither, OLB, Panthers. Age: 28.

Jason Phillips (RFA), OLB, Panthers. Age: 26. -- Re-signed with Panthers (1 year)

Derek Anderson, QB, Panthers. Age: 29.

Cletis Gordon, CB, Panthers. Age: 29.

I'd keep Schwartz, Anderson and Shockey.

Add Applewhite to the list if the price is right. He is a role player, and should be paid accordingly.

The rest are disposable. And frankly, I will be disappointed if we bring Gaither back, as he showed nothing in his time on the field.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
