Fowler reports that teams believe Johnson will become available if Carolina continues to lose games and calls his $7 million salary “fairly reasonable” for his production and age.

I hope we aren't in a situation where it's a good idea.

I hope he is signed before the trade deadline

[Jon Snow]

He gone.

We really need to talk with his agent and find out what he is expecting on his contract. If we are willing to pay that then keep him, but if its out of our range trade him to the highest bidder.

“Teams believe” so it isn’t set in stone then? I hope we don’t trade him, it’s nice to have a legit number 1 

[OldhamA]

Fine if it's a second round pick. Not worth discussing if not. 

[CamWhoaaCam]

Sign this dude please. This franchise finds talent then just let them walk out the door.

 

Why on earth did we trade for him to begin with?

 

Make it make sense Dan Morgan. Sign him you idiot!

[Jackie Lee]

If we don’t pay him we’ll have to pay someone else

Exactly. Best case scenario is a trade and we get something for him before he leaves via free agency.

Let's face it giving Diontae a $100 million dollar contact for a rebuilding team would be unwise.

I hope we don’t trade him, I hope we sign him to an extension

It would be insane to sign him long-term.
