We just got away with Theft!

Holy fug. Never seen a contract so low for such a big name before.

[Donald LaFell]

Glad for it, waiting to see if he responds well to game minutes but love the numbers! Feels like the Greg Olsen trade, can’t believe nobody else took this deal. 

[jfra78]

Makes sense why it was a 1 year deal.  He wants to prove he's still has what it takes then will be free to get a better deal.  Smart on both sides.

[Mr. Scot]

Looks good.

Game bonuses are a good way to save money in case a player gets injured.

A big name that wasn't getting many calls.  He had us right where we wanted him. 

And if it works out, maybe we give him a bigger contract next year.

Also remember that Reid has been out of football since January, he isn’t going to be in game shape in 2 weeks. We may not even begin to see him near 100% till week 8-9. He player no preseason, no training camp. No OTA’s. 

Dont expect pro bowl safety play next weekend.

Let him show his stuff. Even though last year should've been enough to prove he needs a solid contract, looks like he'll have to use this year to show that he still has it.

And, best of all, Panthers get to showcase their stuff to him. Hopefully he enjoys playing for us and we get to sign him back on a multi-year deal on a contract he deserves.

Been saying it all along how cheap he would be. Reid understands the severity of what happened & the whole being black balled. He also knows the Panthers defense needs him & he can excel in this defense & get paid either from us or someone else next year after this Lombardi trophy we about to hoist lol

That’s a bit of a stretch. It’s not like he hasn’t been playing for years. How much do vets really play in preseason nowadays? If he truly was staying in good shape and not coming off injury then I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. 

I make true statement about a player that has done 0 offseason and doesn’t know our play book. 

And get this reply.

huddle gonna huddle. Lol
