Hakeem Nicks Visiting Soon

[TheNewStandard]

I just figured, last season, we didn't have the cap allowance to offer Hakeem a fair deal. this year may be a different story. Hakeem is a definite upgrade over Cotchery and I would be thrilled to have him here if his asking orice has dropped considerably. he would be a steady #2 for us...honestly, he could be the guy considering KB, at this stage in his career, is actually more suited to being our #2 and primary possession receiver.

Corchery is an upgrade over Bersin (duh,) and could be our slot guy clearing out space for Olsen and KB. throw Ginn in as our downfield guy and I really like the lineup.

If Tolbert can remain healthy, we'd have a nice combo package for FB screens with some excellent blockers out front.

Regardless, Nicks would not be invisible in our play sets, regardless of what play set we are going with.

Both KB, Nicks and Cotchery are fine blockers upfield.

maybe it's a pipe dream hoping Nicks will be here when camp opens, but I know he's said he wants to bs with a gunslinger like Cam.

[MadHatter]

It ain't about schemes, it's about El cheapo

I see you are late to the party and completely wrong AGAIN.

Rumor is that we offered him MORE than the Cilts did.

Try and keep up and don't hurt yourself trying

[WOW!!]

I will be ecstatic if we get enough talent at WR to get Cotchery and Bersin off the roster. .

To be fair, one of those TDs in the highlight reel was against Richard Marshall. I dont know if that even counts. I would trust that any competent GM will factor that in as a discount.

I don't know about holding faith in rumors. I remember reading that his enteurage might cause him some bad distractions here in Charlotte and that this might not be the best atmosphere for him to work his profession.

seeing how the Hardy deal went down, I think he has a better appreciation about how strict the Panther FO is with shenanigans...so maybe being away helped him get his head on right and separate himself from bad influences?

if he's healthy, focused and has his head on straight...I have faith he could have a really good thing going here for the remainder of his career.

[Growl]

i just hope we do something interesting during the night so i dont wake up to extreme disappointment and the same dumb threads.

[RealBitsOfPanther]

I'd have to imagine that if he took 3.5 in Indy and was meh, that his price tag wouldn't be too high. This could work.

[Montsta]

Signing Nicks now would be like hooking up with Lindsay Lohan now instead of when she was a mean girl.

Who even cares, anymore? Might do you more harm than good, anyway.

I'm agreeing with ThinkAboutIt, which means worlds are colliding and we need to stay away from this player.

[top dawg]

The Nicks thing is probably more about the money than the scheme. Nicks miscalculated last year, and now he has to pay the price. He gambled on the one year prove-it deal with the wrong club and lost millions. If he is smart, he will sign a modest contract for a few years and prove his worth, then sign another one in a few years commensurate with his production. Or, he can try another prove-it deal at markedly less money, try it again, and risk taking even more of a financial hit. I don't think that Gettleman is interested in playing around with Nicks on a prove-it deal. Nicks' play was arguably decent, but his overall production was sub par for whatever reasons. He needs to face reality that he isn't the best receiver in the NFL, but far from it. He needs to accept the fact that the market just isn't there for him right now, and that depending on the situation, he could do more harm than good to his market, just like last year. If he gets three mil per year with a few mil guaranteed on a three to four year contract to play at home, he might should consider himself blessed. If not, he can always go gambling in Cleveland.

I'm not that big a Hakeem fan either.

But if we signed him to a reasonable deal (i.e. in the range of half or so of what he made last year) I wouldn't scream.

[WOW!!]

Who is the source on this??

[top dawg]

If G-man signs him, I am going to trust that he knows what he is doing. In fact, I chose Nicks to be the first free agent signed this year in that other thread.

[Mr. Scot]

Who is the source on this??

Me.

It's my opinion.

[WOW!!]

Me.

No ..

Who is the source on Nicks visiting the Panthers? ?
