But, they were negotiating with him for almost a year before they used the 1st franchise tag and they offered him a contract that would have made him the highest paid defensive player in the NFL, but Peppers turned it down. So, my point was Hurney knew good and well Peppers didn't want to remain here. So, instead of waiting until you must franchise a player and then the team looses all the leverage, plan ahead, and trade that player, so at least you have something, instead of getting nothing.

It doesn't always work like that, the player can decline to sign longterm with the new team. Have NTC contract talk and most teams will get the information that a player doesn't want to play for a team anymore through agents and so forth. So they decide to wait it out and let the player hit FA instead of giving up draft picks plus major money.

Morons.

If the Panthers were not going to entertain offers, they would have said "We are not going to trade Stew." But, they said, "we are not going to make calls" which is Pasquerelli implied is "coach speak" for " what will you give us".

Panthers knew the signing of Tolbert and the parsing of words from Panthers front office should bring in offers, we will see.

I am very happy they dont have their head in the sand as in past seasons. It is about time this organization grew up. Most of you need to grow up and learn that the Panthers winning is more important than your man crush on any one player.

I have been saying Denver and Pittsburgh for a good while. I still think Denver is best and Fox could give us their second for him.

That way, Stew is not unhappy, Panthers get a good second rounder this year rather than a comp pick of 4th round a couple of years from now.

Highly unlikely, but a remote possiblility that Denver could trade for DWill. Doubt it. That, by the way is the only team possible I could see trading for him

I understand all that. Just saying if we trade this guy, its terrible for the team. I love DWill but he should have been the one to go. Stewart is younger and to me the better overall RB. Will be a sad day if Stewart gets traded.

We can debate the DWill contract all day long....and most will say that it was a mistake. However, that ship has sailed.

That being said, it is just going to be nearly impossible to retain Stewart and tie up that much Cap on the RB position. IF (and that is truly an IF) they don't think we can get him signed at the end of this season, we definitely should trade him for what we can get now.

How are they going to resign him? He's declined to talk about an extension with the Panther's and will want as much or more money then Williams got and the Panther's are going to be over the cap next season. (It's expected to remain flat for the most part up till the new ESPN deal kicks in for the 2014 season.)

The team can't cut Williams till 2014 at the earliest because of his signing bonus, there aren't a whole lot of cut possibilities either, Smith will need a new contract, so will Otah and a few defensive players as well.

Where is it that Stewart turned down extension talks? Can I get a link? That might change my whole opinion of the matter... I doubt it, but it might...

Of course they're going to listen to offers. In terms of any sort of finality a statement like that means nothing though.

Getting rid of Williams next season and drafting a scat back to complement Stewart seems to make far more sense at this juncture.

Don't kill the messenger.

you should know better than to say that "they are" doing something when it's just a reporter saying that they "might be"...or at least "moron reporter says: panthers listening to offers yada yada yada".

misleading title is misleading.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
