Charles Johnson Update...

He can't sign til friday, that's what he means.

There is no reason for him to rush, if there is no deadline for him to accept.

I was under the impression that teams can only sign their own players.. but can't sign other players until Friday. Am I wrong about that?

He could lose out if Atlanta decides they cannot compete with the Panthers. Atlanta could go after another DE instead. The fact that he mentioned Denver is a reach, if you ask me. They want DW and need a RB. They are at the cap. This is pretty much a 2 horse race, and we have more $$ than Atlanta. THe Falcons are not going to break up a winning team to create cap room for what could be a one-hit wonder.

Profootballtalk.com reports the Panthers have agreed to terms with DE Charles Johnson on a six-year, $76 million contract, including a whopping $30 million signing bonus.

The deal has $32 million in guarantees. Re-signing the top pass rusher on the market was enough of a priority that GM Marty Hurney flew to Miami Tuesday to meet directly with Johnson. The Gaston Gazette confirms Johnson was contacted by the Falcons -- as expected. The Broncos also came calling, perhaps confirmation that coach John Fox will aggressively court his former players. The total money is nearly as strong as Julius Peppers' Bears contract, effectively keeping Johnson from waiting until Friday to see how many suitors would line up. Jul 26, 5:41 PM
