Panthers defensive tackle Dwan Edwards was one of the best bargains in the NFL last season, but the 31-year-old free agent is looking for more security this winter.

He might not find it in Carolina.

Edwards said Thursday he is weighing several contract offers, including a one-year offer from the cap-strapped Panthers. He indicated he was looking for a longer deal.

“It’s getting to the time in my career where you definitely start thinking about winning a Super Bowl,” Edwards said in a phone interview from Buffalo. “I wouldn’t say (the Panthers) were Super Bowl contenders. I think there’s an opportunity to make some noise in their division and get in the playoffs.

“If I’m not in their vision any longer than one year, it’s hard to think that (a Super Bowl run) is going to happen.”

Edwards would not identify his other suitors, but said one was a playoff team last season. He said he has been offered longer deals than the Panthers’, but would not discuss particulars.

Yeah, he's pretty much gone, with saying he wants to be with a contender and that the Panthers aren't that. lol. Yeah, he's out.

I'm not going to lie. Redundant thread is redundant.

That said, I sure hope we can work something out with him. He makes our line better. I really hate losing better guys. I can however, understand his need for a longer deal.

Give him his two year deal. Worry about cutting him next year if need be. I just want something done. All this waiting is giving me a headache.

"I think there's an oppurtunity to make some noise in their division and get in the playoffs"

Unless I'm interpreting it the wrong way.

He was referring to the Panthers with that quote. He's saying that the Panthers have potential, but aren't SB contenders, which is what he is looking for in a suitable team at this point in his career.

You are, as usual. Please work on your reading comprehension, for everyone's sake.

      Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?

      Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.

      Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
