Panthers reworking Shaq's Deal

[Proudiddy]

I like Shaq, but he's been fairly underwhelming for his career.  Glad he's staying as he is a solid guy though...

That being said, when this offseason started, I never expected that 2023 roster would include Shaq, but not DJ.

[Smithers]

Shaq had 135 tackles last year, ranked 12th in the nfl in solo tackles, and had a pff grade of 72.  He’s a good player.  
 

those same people on here claiming Shaq isn’t good are the same ones claiming Perryman is all pro

They didn’t watch games. Shaq and Luvu along with horn, Burns, Chinn, and Brown are a potentially great core with the right coordinator which we definitely have. This allows us to gain cap and keep stability in an area we need it. This allows us to focus more on offensive playmakers in free agency and the draft. Smart move.

We may actually get some cap room for this off-season yet. Things are looking up boys and girls. Looking up.

Not a great comparison.  Wasn't Bradford a #1 overall QB? Totally different from a LB selected in the late first 

[Wolfcop]

He needs to give up that #7, though. Our rookie QB needs it. j/k

[Mr. Scot]

Guessing he'll be one of the inside backers.

Now let's get Bozeman.

You're right, Bradford wasn't even mediocre through most of his career.

At least Shaq has been above average at times.

All joking aside, Sam Bradford is the 24th highest earning NFL player of all time. He made more money in 9 years than Tony Romo did in 14 and Mike Vick did in 13.

Bradford is the definition of overpaid for mediocre results.

Love to see it.

He makes tons of tackles 5 yards beyond the LOS.
