McCoy has always had a tremendous amount of respect for Cam. Let's see if that plays into his decision.

Sorry but this is not going to happen. If we won't even spend money to bring in a FS, what makes u think we would sign another DT for more than 11 mil

[Proudiddy]

Also worth pointing out, that the report about the 11M offers was "per year," which I can only assume means he usn't gonna be taking a 1-year deal either.  But, I'd be happy with giving him a front-heavy two-year deal.

We have a better chance than more than half the league l in my view. Depends on what the guy savors. Maybe we are the flavor. Ciao

Did he visit and leave Cleveland with no deal?

Patriots are the only guaranteed year in year out contender

Well they are also pretty cap strapped, currently.

Make it happen Hurndog

  Sign him for 3/33M with an 11M salary each year. No signing bonus. Make the last two years club options so if you move on after one year there is no dead cap hit and when MCCoy signs with another team, we get the comp Pick. 

 And it would give us a fallback plan if KK doesn’t bounce back.

Sounds good, but there's zero chance he'd agree to that. Why would he?

Team friendly deal dude!

We are the Panthers,  after all.

 It’s just a one year/ 11M deal. Which is probably all he will get anyhow. Make the option years higher at 15M so if he balls out you could possibly use the option as an alternative to KK. 

  Sure it’s “pie in the sky wishful thinking” but when people ask why the Pats and Eagles have so many comp picks, this is why. Contracts like Torrey Smiths. Only we aren’t smart enough to actually take advantage of them.

We need to start thinking in a win now(or at least in the next 2/3 years) mentality! Im not saying we should go back to Hurney 1.0 or cap hell but we have future hall of famers in in their peak years or heading their its best we take advantage of that! Whether its 3-4 or 4-3 McCoy would help a Dline that looked close to dead in the water.
