Jason Babin released?!?

[Mr. Scot]

Normally I'd say no, but with Ron Edwards out...

[Boltergeist]

A waiver claim requires $1.62M in cap room this year. Do you guys even have $1.62 left?

[Rocky]

he would be a good fit somewhere with the space to sign him purely for passing downs..

patriots?

[SgtJoo]

His contract is too big, he's over the hill and he's not producing.

No, no, no.

[Argus Plexus]

DO want

[Johnny Rockets]

Can't afford

[Ken]

His contract is manageable if we really want him.

@JasonLaCanfora

I would expect no shortage of suitors for Jason Babin, and with his salary manageable ($4.325 in 2013) waiver claims a distinct possibility

@AlbertBreer

Jason Babin's base salary for this year is $5.575 million. Any team claiming him on waivers would pick up the $1.64 million in salary left.

[carolina-chuck]

I want. Heck, do what the Giants do and start Johnson, Hardy, and Babin. That would be a formidable pass rush.

Hell yea imagine CJ, Hardy, Dwan, and Babin on third down putting on the pass rush.

[iamcline]

He wants to play for a winner, not a team others eat for dinner.

[KSpan]

Overrated.

[Way Truth Life]

We don't have a GM......there is no chance we pick him up

[stirs]

What the heck are you guys talking about? Just sign anyone, someone, get someone in here quick. We have the Chiefs this weekend. Spend a load more cash and all for what? The chance to pick 12th rather than 10th?

I cannot believe the threads around here.

Reid is on his way out, but doing the right thing by looking ahead to next season. Most teams in our shape recognize that you might as well let your backups see live bullets. Could greatly effect what you do the in draft in April. But not here. We want to bring in other teams castoffs to strive for that elusive 5th win.

Man, it is hard to pull for this organization.

[Panthers Nation]

lol why would we take on this washed up bum,when we have nothing to play for?I can see if we were trying to make the playoffs.

*Oh and he would never come to Carolina anyway.

[Anybodyhome]

Hugh Douglas and Troy Vincent (both former Eagles under Ray Rhodes and Andy Reid) said Babin laid down once the Eagles started losing games. Andy Reid is gone, so the team is looking to see what young guys are going to keep playing hard to earn a spot on next year's rebuild.
