So.......Kawaan Short

[Kevin Greene]

The Free Agent flurry the last 24 hours has been nothing short of extraordinary.

But what of Kawaan Short and his 14 million dollar Franchise Tag still pending?

Florio promised us Short would be locked up in a few days.

Last year, Panthers cornerback Josh Norman didn’t sign the franchise tender — and the team eventually rescinded it. This year, Panthers defensive tackle Kawann Short appears to be prepared to avoid a similar outcome.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Short likely will be signing the franchise tender in the next few days.

It's been a few days.

Julius Peppers coming back reminds one of the danger of carrying a FT tagged player unsigned through FA and the Draft.

Is Vernon Butler Gettleman's ace in the hole and Short is shown the door if he won't sign in a timely manner freeing up an additional 14 mil?

Butler is most definitely a bargaining chip. As will end Jonathan Allen if he's there. Short is in a bad negotiating position.
