CJ BACK! Charles Johnson Signs A Two Year Deal; $9.5 Million - Turned Down More Money Elsewhere Again

Nearly a year to the day when the defensive end signed a one-year, $3-million contract to spend his 10th season in Carolina, the two sides agreed on a two-year deal Tuesday afternoon.

We pretty much shored all our important FAs already. Love it.

Pretty nice to see CJ loving Charlotte. Good for him, as he's an important Vet for our team. Whether you like it or not, he pretty much played like a Jared Allen 2.0 on our team, with slightly better production. Although injuries obviously hampered him, he has been pretty solid last year, and would've been paid big bucks on the market.

This pretty much shores up all our offseason concerns, so we can enter free agency without worrying about filling a hole one of our guys leave.

Not really a great deal. Hope we are not just going to resign all the players from a 6-10 team and roll with it. Had money to upgrade and still do. Let the process play out.

It's only 6 hours into legal tampering period, and CJ has been one of our most productive DEs this season. I believe it's likely a cap-friendly deal.

This allows us to go into free agency aiming for the big boys. Barry Church is a likely first target.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
