A league source said the team is preparing to use its franchise tag on defensive end Greg Hardy. The fourth-year player tied a team single-season record with 15 sacks in 2013. He would be one of the league’s most sought-after free agents if Carolina lets him hit the open market. The deadline for teams to tag one of their players is Monday at 4 p.m. ET.

Even though the Panthers have at least a couple dozen decisions to make – including finding a replacement for longtime left tackle Jordan Gross, who retired Wednesday – they need to make a final call on Hardy in the next few days.

During two media appearances – after the playoff loss to the 49ers and at the NFL Combine – general manager Dave Gettleman stressed the Panthers remain “cap challenged.” He was also non-committal about Hardy, who would command too much money for a long-term deal.

The estimated cost of a franchise tag for defensive ends in 2014 is between $12-$13 million. If the Panthers do tag Hardy, they will lose a big chunk of their cap space, but the organization believes he is too important to just let walk.

Owner Jerry Richardson has charged Gettleman to build a team that will post a winning record in back-to-back seasons for the first time in franchise history, and keeping Hardy for 2014 would be a key piece to that plan.

      Let's hope Tulsky did due diligence on this, lots of things are said in negotiations and a lot of it is just posturing. I fully expect him to sign with the Canes or it will be the blunder of all time.
