Some interesting info on Hakeem Nicks

[panthers55]

So you give him a 2 year deal which you can void after 1 year if he doesn't reach certain goals.  I would think that a deal averaging 4 or 5 million a year would get it done if he wants to be here.  If you do cut Smitty, his cap savings of 2 million this year and 6 million next year should just about fit the need.  You can structure the deal with lets say a 3 million signing bonus and 1 million the first year and 6 million the second year.  The cap is 3 million this year and 7 million next year. Truth is you could bring him in and keep Smitty for that matter.  Wait until after the draft and free agency to see if you want to keep Smitty or not.  Even with the 7 million cap we would have 4 left which could sign a good safety or corner.

funny after the giants game, smitty went to nicks and said" we sure could use you, if youre not wanted there"....... never mind thats more sad than funny.

 

Did he actually say that (or something along those lines) to him? We need Smitty to convince Nicks to come here for cheapish for a year or two and then work out a long term deal if he plays well.

when you're taking a cheap one year prove it deal in hopes of landing a huge contract in the future the actual $$$ is less important than finding a good situation with a good QB in place

 

Bingo.  He knows Cam will revive his career.....I mean, make him money in the future.  Can't say the same about Carson Palmer or whoever Oakland's qb will be.

A report could come out say nicks wants to sign only here and is willing to sign what ever he needs to play here and some would say they still don't want nicks.

Nicks has circulated letters to all 32 teams from the esteemed Dr. Robert Anderson and Dr. James Andrews, indicating that previous foot and knee surgeries should not inhibit the wide receiver's performance in 2014, reports ESPN's Chris Mortensen.

 

Isn't Dr. Robert Anderson one of our doctors?  Just curious.  Not reading into anymore that what is already out there.

I'll believe it when i see it...Nicks taking an effective pay cut and performing like a number 1, here or somewhere else.

he already did an interview saying he thought he would be a good fit here. I'm more worried about wether or not Gettleman would make him an offer, tbh

yeah all these "nicks to panthers" bs is pure speculation because of those comments.

[Jon Snow]

Sounds like he wants Steve Smith's money? Coincidence?

In Gettleman I trust...I keep repeating that to myself. 

[TheRumGone]

I have a feeling he's going to sign here.

I have a feeling he's going to sign here.

Kinda feels that way

Man, I was hoping this was about Nicks raising penguins or something.
