Everything about this is hilariously petty by Payton.

I'm pretty sure most of us know or have met that one guy who's generally just a dick to everybody for no reason, even to his friends.

It's not hard to imagine Payton having that kind of persona.

Payton's been on the rules committee for years.  He's trying to play our younger staff.

Please, every team has deals worked out before the draft ends. That's why half the big time udfas are signed 1 minute after the draft. This is a laughable story.

Agreed.  My best friend’s niece is the girlfriend of the CB from Montreal Canada that signed as an udfa with Green Bsy.  My friend texted me during the 6th round that a desl was done to sign with them unless a team drafted him in the 7th.  Signing Bonus was already negotiated.

Florio or Payton?

Yes

It's always a bad call that trips up Payton. Most times it's pass interference, this time it was a phone call.

Dickery, thy name is Payton.

“We didn’t have a deal in place with the player,” Panthers spokesman Steve Drummond told PFT via text message. “We had conversations like every other team.” No days off for our friend Steve.

I have no idea what the hell happened behind the scenes, but I couldn’t think of a more fitting year for the Carolina Panthers to somehow get thrown into the “fined/forfeit a pick” gauntlet over a pillowfight for the right to employ THEEEE Tommy Stevens. Yep. Sounds right.

We need more of these petty bickerings to turn up the temperature among all NFC South teams.  It makes for better rivalries.  Hopefully the Panthers will use their new “physicality” Identity to piss off the rest of the division.

How embarrassing (and rightfully so) for Sean Payton, he should never had opened his damn mouth.

I do not like him at all, but no need for this.

Payton opened his mouth intentionally. All he did was use a draft pick for a player. He accused us of breaking the rules and reported it. This was a dumb move on his part but an intentional effort to hurt us
