Why wouldn't I be mad?  We just overpayed for someone who isn't that good.  

LOL, WE didn't overpay for anything. WE don't own the Panthers. You're big mad and WE find it hilarious.

Well, PFF says we signed an average to below average safety (#55) to the 10th most expensive safety contract.

Hurney gonna Hurney.

pff sucks, but then again, who would be available for 7.5? Also, don't say We ShOuLd DrAfT a SaFeTy. Didn't work out too well last year did it?

Thought he played OK last season, not terrible, not awesome.

I'll wait to see how this deal is structured before saying if it's a good, average, or bad signing.

I really do wish that Marty Hurney would learn to let players test FA before signing big deals though.

 

[Shocker]

Fine with this...if a tad expensive.  Now go get another safety...we ain’t done yet.

lol, using him incorrectly?  Like asking him to play coverage?

wow you are really butthurt about this. he played like a top half safety and was paid like a top half safety and we filled a position of need. cry elsewhere

A lot of the anti-Reid comments are consistent with the anti-Harper comments a few years ago. Don't make this about something it isn't.

well to that argument, Harper ended up being garbage

Wait, only 10 million is guaranteed.

 

What are y'all crying about?

Just wait for the classic Hurney "restructure"...

I'm still trying to figure out why he touched Matt Kalil's contract last year. I still haven't figured out how that did anything for us other than out us on tbe hook for more guaranteed money which is just going to cause us to take a bigger hit when we make him a post June 1st cut.

I mean, did we not just commit 1/3 of our offseason budget to an average safety with major holes on both lines?

[Byrdman4real]

Great signing 

[panthers55]

First of all an averaged amount doesn't tell you what he counts this year. I bet his cap this year is around 5 million. Which makes him a bargain. Second the 10 is guaranteed not all 22 which means we won't have a ton of dead money going forward. Third the safety market was an anomaly last year and wasn't going to be cheap going forward. Lastly he is more than just average particularly as a strong safety. Honestly he was playing out of position as a free safety. His much better position is strong safety.

You're big dumb and I find it hilarious.

Now get Rapp in the draft and we're set for the next three years. 

[Dunn]

I'm happy that this signing might possibly open up some PSL's for the 'good ole boys' that are furious we signed a kneeler.  Maybe me and my buddy can get them for cheap 

[Lemory]

Just need to draft a rangy FS in the draft and our secondary could be really nice next year.
