JOE PERSON SPECIAL: Panthers will attempt to bring back the following players……

[TheSpecialJuan]

Ø Person notes the team would like to re-sign LB Sam Franklin, TE Tommy Tremble, and WR David Moore on short-term deals.

 

Ø Meanwhile, CB Mike Jackson, S Xavier Woods, P Johnny Hekker, and OL Brady Christensen will likely hit free agency.

 

Ø The team has already re-signed QB Andy Dalton and LS J.J. Jansen, however, they are letting LB Shaq Thompson hit free agency and Person believes they could do the same with TE Ian Thomas and K Eddy Pineiro.

Mike Jackson is the lone surprise.  I’d rather see him stay but I’m guessing it’s a numbers game.  Just don’t have the funds to sign him and extend Horn.

Same thought.  I think they probably want to keep Jackson but the numbers may end up being prohibitive. 
 

I like him but don’t want to pay too much.

Yup just Jackson. Also why isn't Thomas on the deffinatly walking list? Like there shouldn't be any doubt if they are going to try and retain Tremble.
