Panthers release Lucas

[panthers55]

We were not going to be able to trade Lucas unless he was willing to rework his contract. No one in their right mind would give us any kind of draft pick and pick up his 9 million salary. I suspect he wouldn't renegotiate his contract, wouldn't take less to stay and ultimately felt that if he was taking less money as least this way he can negotiate with anyone of his choice.

The CBs overall took some unneeded shots due to having to cover up mistakes by a rookie FS. Hopefully that'll be lessened with a year of experience under his belt.

Whoever we put at the #2 spot better learn how to be a shut down corner real quick as long as Godfrey's providing "safety help".

Edit: I did not read the post above me prior to posting this. You're right my man.

i'd bet you the patriots are kicking themselves in the ass right now for signing bodden...

lol!

[Mr. Scot]

A thought from Yasinskas that I'd have to say I don;t like...

Lucas could fit with other NFC South teams

[CarolinaHustla]

on one hand.....

thanks for the years of service ken lucas. you've been steadily downhill since 2005, but you were never worse than average. by all accounts you were insufferable in the locker room, but now you have the chance to make yourself some money and pick a city with an appropriately accommodating gay night life.

on the other....

eat a dick. you're going to get less money now because you didn't want to play in detroit. no one is going to give you what you think you're worth because no one shares the opinion of your skills your inflated ego has left you with. i hope wherever you go the panthers get to play you and you end up on steve smith so he could burn you all day like he does in practice.

Couldn't have said it any better!:iagree:

[Kettle]

could lucas become the next hall if he lands in our division? having smith own him consistently?

If you were an opposing coach, would you put Lucas on Smith?

as most every coach has, I would double smith.

As long as we replace him with a CB that's not Marshall I'm fine...Richard Marshall is garbage people.

who do you think gets the job..richard marshall will at least get a shot to start next year.and since this year CB class is not that deep he will start
