DeAngelo Free Agency Thread

http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/07/26/deangelo-williams-to-meet-with-panthers-tuesday-wants-to-re-sign/

The two best parts of this article:

“I honestly and truly want to stay a Carolina Panther and they’re doing their part of keep me a Carolina Panther,” Williams said Monday need via Steve Reed of the Gaston Gazette. “So I’m very excited about that. Carolina gets the first stab at me.”

and

“[Offensive coordinator Rob] Chudzinski said he has a big role for me and Jonathan to play this year and I’m pretty excited about that,” Williams said. “They even have packages where they will put me and Jonathan in at the same time, so it’s going to be pretty cool.”

The thing about them both being on the field at the same time has been something I've been hoping to see for a couple years now...

Just now on SC, was asked where he thought DLo will end up, and I thought he was gonna give the "Panthers want him back, and he wants to be back..." response...

Instead, he says there will be a full court press on DLo as soon as the negotiation period starts by Denver and Miami. Made no mention of us.

I really hope he just Schefted, uhhhh, I mean shafted us and wanted to sensationalize the negotiating opening up... If not, then I am not going to be happy. This b*tch better not know what he's talking about.

I hope this is more accurate. Sounds like from the beginning that the coaching staff was told DLo would be a part of things by the way Riv and Chud have talked about him. I really hope we hold onto all of these guys, then add Jospeh and maybe Weddle, Heap, Amobi, and a possibly a WR.

That would be a dream scenario for me.

Well...considering Deangelo is meeting with our staff as reported by PFT and he has said on multiple occassions he wants to be back and JSTEW has said on multiple occassions he wants him back...I think we work out a deal.

Normally I wouldn't be on the bandwagon to resign a running back to a second deal when we already have a guy the caliber of Jonathan Stewart but having a solid running game is going to be critical to Newton's development.

Actually He said the same thing last night on his Facebook feed... So actually PFT has it right... Read the threads b4 making yourselves look silly.

It makes sense for him to stay here, he has had and will have even more success. Him carrying the load with JS offsetting is only going to greatly extend his career.

It's DeAngelo's words quoted by Steve Reed...not conjecture by Floridiot. Therein lies the difference.

don't click on pft. don't link to pft. don't quote pft.

Just go to rotoworld and do this

Free agent DeAngelo Williams has told friends that he would be interested in playing for the Giants if they don't retain free agent Ahmad Bradshaw.

Williams is going to give the Panthers the first crack at re-signing him, but he'll have plenty of suitors. Bradshaw recently said there's a 75 percent chance he'll be back with the Giants, but other reports have that closer to 50-50. Williams' landing spot -- which we should know withing a few days -- is the most significant fantasy story of the free agency period.

is that so hard?

Best news this morning so far. I want to keep my Madden team in tact, lol. Now let's keep our core together lol.

In all seriousness though I hope we're able to keep the studs we have in place, I want us to have as many offensive and defensive options available as reasonably possible.

I'd love to get Joseph and Amobi, and I'd be happy to get Weddle. Not Heap though. He's too old and his production has dropped a little in recent years. Shockey's a year younger, with roughly the same amount of games missed and productivity.

    • According to multiple players and staffers in the locker room, some players were asking why Eberflus didn’t call a timeout. Other players got going, too. “Guys were furious,” a staff member said. “It was an accumulation of this season.” “The locker room was ugly,” another staffer said. “There was a lot of yelling.” Said the first player: “We felt as players it’s been too many instances where we fought our way back into games to lose because of bad time management and decision-making.” Multiple sources added that the emotions were so high between the players and their head coach that Eberflus left the locker room immediately after his speech and the exchange with players. There was nothing left to say. It was a moment for this Bears team that would inevitably force chairman George McCaskey into something the franchise had never done before. By Friday morning, Eberflus was out — but not before the team decided to have him address the media over Zoom just after 9 a.m. Two hours later, he was gone. The Bears made it official by sharing statements from general manager Ryan Poles and president/CEO Kevin Warren.
    • You take all this stuff too personally.  Learn to detach. Lol or don't. It's up to you. People don't have the same appreciation or longing for him you seem to have. For me, I just don't understand it. Basically a footnote in Panthers history. Go ahead if you feel he needs it or you need it, but most apparently just don't know why it's such a big deal. Comparing him to guys like kuechly or cam is kind of weak. Those guys made a huge impact on the franchise. Wilks was just a guy we had as a DC a couple times and got him to be an interim. Mildly interesting, but not much more than that as time goes on.
    • @adamjahns   In Detroit, Bears players finally had enough. The locker room was an ugly scene. Players yelled back at their head coach — and he left. The inside story on the final days of Matt Eberflus and where he lost his team.  https://x.com/adamjahns/status/1862848299981541516
