Charles Johnson Update...


Kurb

Recommended Posts

From @CarolinaGrowl Steve Reed, currently the best source of news we have.

Just spoke with DE Charles Johnson on the phone. Panthers GM Marty is in Miami trying to convince Johnson to re-sign with Carolina.

Johnson said Atlanta and Denver are also interested in signing him.

Charles Johnson said the Panthers have made him a very good offer, but he's weighing his options at this point and nothing is done.

DE Charles Johnson “(The Panthers) threw an offer out but I have to see what happens. We can’t do much until Friday.”

The fact that Marty Hurney flew to Miami to meet with Johnson gives you a pretty good idea that he's Carolina's top priority in free agency.

Pretty much what I thought.

It's between Panthers/Falcons/Donkeys

We are going to offer the most cash, Atlanta is going to talk like they are about to win the SuperBowl (they aren't). Fox is going to play the "I drafted you card" + $$

I would say we have as good a chance to keep him as to lose him.

No way, money still talks in the NFL, that is why it took so damn long to get a new CBA to begin with. If you throw enough money to CJ, then he will come back. Beside's, who wouldn't want to test the market, especially if it's the first time you have ever been considered a prestigious athlete in your life. Johnson will realize the Panthers are serious about winning right away after they lock up DeAngelo Williams, then CJ will follow suit.

    • I always get lectured every year when we inevitably win some meaningless late season games to tank our draft position that we're building culture and you always have to try to win no matter what. This is why that's bullshit. Once you're out of contention it's to your competitive advantage to LOSE. 
    • You’re tripping I hear what you’re saying but you’re not thinking of the benefits that trade gives us. We can then move around in the second round or late in the first to grab a specific player we covet like M Starks late in the 1st. Let me clarify if we’re at 21 we grab W Nolen or K Grant then trade up late in the 1 or early in the second giving up next years second for M Starks or T Amos there so much that can happen with that additional ammo.  Allowing us still so much leverage in next years draft as well with two first rounders we’d be dam crazy not to take a trade like that it’s not the big haul or heavy amount of picks we’re hoping for but it’s gets us multiple players especially ones we’ve seemed to taken a liking to like Nolen etc along with the safety from SC. or even a Luther B or James P early in the second. This nice influx in talent would help way more than a player like Jalon W. because of his high bust rate or probability  to bust….you know what I mean.  We need players we all know that those extra picks allow us to give up something this year to add key pieces from the 29-40 range that we may really like and have a need for (T Amos) and it not hurt as much because we’re stacked in round one of 26. Which could also be a pick one trade one scenario next year giving us more ammo to manipulate the draft to a winning situation for us long term. Al that to say we desperately need to be actively seeking a trade because we could add real talent in multiple spots this year and next with that current trade your opposing.
    • According to their list, the top guy hasn't put out a mock yet and the 2nd guy has us trading to 4 for Carter.
