Did Bradberry not want to be here or did he not want to be here for what we were offering? Honest question, not baiting. I don't know.

Not sure.

Nonsense, paying Shaq didn't stop us from paying Bradberry. Ask the Saints how hard it would be to make that math work. We weren't that cash strapped and you can easily work the numbers to push the cap hit to the future even if you are. He wanted more than we thought he was worth, right or wrong. He's doing well in New York but our pass defense is also doing pretty good considering who we have and the injuries we have. I think it worked out ok for everyone.

Who said bradberry even wanted to be here? Do people not understand outside of a franchise tag a team can't control to much what a free agent player does. More than that what team who is rebuilding gonna dish heavy bucks like that? Bradberry wanted to be one of the highest paid.

They wanted to pay Shaq instead 

don't tell some on this board that, they believe those decisions have NOTHING to do with one another 

 

Even though ...we decided to pay one and ...not pay the other...

I couldn't even tell that Shaq was activated today.

That’s been the case just about every Sunday since he became a Panther

Idk I think he's regressed somehow, I remember when Luke was out circa ~2015 he took over MLB duties and actually did really good

Paying Shaq was the right move.

People are complaining about how bad Whitehead is and that he’s the weakest link on the entire team. Imagine having another Whitehead level linebacker playing next to him. 
 

Our corners have been solid and if Bradberry was here we never would’ve grabbed Douglas. 

If Whitehead wasn’t so damn bad our defense as a whole would be solid

Whitehead is the worst. What a disaster

I expected him to be solid against the run but he’s not even that.

He’s slow to react and diagnose plays and more often than not actually just gets in the way. Chinn is getting so many tackles because he’s cleaning up Whiteheads mess a lot of times. 

I’m hoping Rhule can bring Reddick in this offseason and kick Shaq to MLB
