Spotrac's Greg Hardy Contract Forecast(Bigger than CJ'S deal)


panther4life

Recommended Posts

They did some research and compared the production(before they signed)and  the contracts of Carlos Dunlap, CJ, Mario Williams, and Chris Long's deals to come up with this absurd prediction.
 
 
"Spotrac's Prediction: 6 years, $82,108,329
  •  Average annual salary: $13,684,721
  •  Guaranteed: $28,335,373 (34.5%)"

 

 

Here's a link to the article and research they did to come up with their figure http://www.spotrac.com/premium/research/nfl/contract-forecast-greg-hardy-370/

Whatever it takes to keep him here and not kill the cap is fine with me. A lot of players want the total contract value number to be big, but the cap hit is usually no where near that number.

 

He's becoming a premier edge rusher in a passing league, keeping him here has got to be a priority.

 

I am hoping signing him early gets us a discount.

the reason you sign him before this year is to avoid the crazy price tag he would get on the open market.

Still sticking with 5 years 30 million

He also only has produced one year....always the Albert Haynesworth risk. Assuming one year on books is what you get in the future. We already gambled with CJ....this is a double down and going right back with the same bet.

That is if those figures are what goes down

    • There are people on this forum that just want to see a lot of passing yards....number go up. That's all it is, really. They are thirsting for a 350-400 yard game. The idea that Jameis Winston is going to come in and play like a star and lead us to wins is ludacris. He's the 3rd fuging string for a 2-5 team and has played horrible for years now. Sure, passing numbers will go up but you'll also get a lot of dumb plays, pick 6's, and incompletions en route to a frustrating bad offensive performance, just in a different way. I think these people are yearning for another Delhomme situation, and the odds of that happening are very very slim. It's way more likely Howell or Jameis comes in and looks like Jack Plummer or Andy Dalton did in the preseason. There just isn't that much good quarterbacking in this league right now. And if we draft another QB in the first round, there is a good chance they bust. It's not a guaranteed carrot. The reality is, as mediocre as Bryce has been, the risk of bringing someone else in in-season and releasing Bryce becuase you aren't happy with his current performance is staggeringly high. Don't want to re-up his contract and search for a solution in the offseason? Sure, I'm on board. Bryce hasn't been good enough to warrant a second contract. But It is very. very unlikely that bringing someone else in midseason is going to give this team more wins.
    • I told somebody that today, the old QB adage. If you have two you don't have one. People forget when we had Double Trouble, there still was a clear edge of carry volume going to D-Lo until his departure. NFL is cut throat and if it takes us eventually bailing on Chuba to feature Rico, that decision may have to be made. 
    • Exactly zero people on the coaching staff or front office are hoping the Panthers get utterly destroyed. This is why people can't take the constant Bryce bashing seriously. Get a clue
