Thursday Evening FA Open Thread

It's been a rather quiet day on the free agent front for Panthers fans, but we do have word from several sources that the front office is working diligently to sign all the draft picks today. Once we know contract details we will pass along that information as always.

At any rate, let's keep the conversations flowing Panthers fans!

News and notes from the past few days:

DeAngelo Williams is back! 5 years, $43M ($21M guaranteed). Read about it here.

- The Panthers have signed former Jets TE Ben Hartsock to a 2 year deal. More information here.

- In probably the biggest WTF moment of the offseason thus far, the Panthers have signed K Olindo Mare to a 4 year, $12M contract. More information on this signing here.

- In one fell swoop, James Anderson and Thomas Davis were re-signed to 5-year contracts. The Panthers have also added two more DB's to the roster: CB Cletis Gordon and S De'Von Hall. Details of their deals can be found here.

- In what can only be described as an emotional move, it appears that K John Kasay will be released today.Apparently the front office told him they were going to go in another direction, thus explaining the signing of Olindo Mare on Wednesday.

- The Panthers have released their official training camp schedule. You can find it here.

- Second year DE Greg Hardy was involved in a motorcycle accident last week in Tennessee. While he's not seriously injured, he will have to miss the first two weeks of training camp. You can read the Charlotte Observer's account of the story here.

- The Panthers have decided not to trade WR Steve Smith, and Smitty has said that he wants "to remain a Panther for life". I for one couldn't be happier! Details about this can be found here.

- The Panthers have agreed to a 1-year contract with former Eagles and Jaguars S Sean Considine. Read more about it here.

As always, stay tuned to CSR for any breaking stories throughout the evening.

Let's hear what you've got to say Panthers fans! This is now an open thread!

We know we have a great team. We know history shows that the 4th team in the NFC South usually wins the division. And we know we have Cam Newton.

Why can’t we bounce back? Why can’t we be champions this year?

Just a little food for thought.

Such a perfect signing!

I know we just brought in Shockey but Shockey, Olsen, Williams, Stewart, Smith sounds like a damn good set of weapons for Cam in his rookie season.

Gone are the days of the defense focusing on just one guys!

by MindMachine on Jul 28, 2011 6:20 PM EDT reply actions  

Shockey was foresight to bring some strength to a position of weakness.

When Olson became available, the FO saw it as the opportunity to really strengthen the position for the future.

I think keeping them both for the time being is great idea

We can eat up some clock with running and passes to TEs all day long now.

Keep them both around to make Cam’s job easier for a year or two!

by MindMachine on Jul 28, 2011 6:22 PM EDT up reply actions  

shockey can teach Olsen

When Shockey is playing, he’s one of the best. He could instill some blocking and a mean streak in Olsen. Then Olsen starts going to pro bowls with Cam, Smitty, Beason, D-Will, CJ, Stew and Kalil

by usana_gaines on Jul 28, 2011 6:30 PM EDT up reply actions  

Exactly my point...

Keep Shockey around for a couple years both as a weapon and while we further develop Olsen!

Gettis is a future pro bowler

and will be the Panthers leading receiver over the next 10 years…unless it’s Olsen, or LaFell, or Pilares…and in the short term, it could also be Smitty, or Shockey…my mind is blowing up.

If we gave up Gettis I wouldn't mind.

We’re talking about a player we grabbed in the 6th round. Trading him for a star TE seems like a fair shake. As long as the draft pick isn’t a 1st or 2nd.

Reports are that the Panthers have already extended olsen’s contract so this thing has been in the works all day – that explains the signing of a safety earlier in the day – The F.O. knew they were loosing one, thats why they filled the wqhole created by the trade

Then you know we are going after a WR.And there are a couple good ones out there.

We better.

Gettis is a serious deep threat. We better get a big-bodied, super-fast WR with good hands to replace him. That is, if Gettis is indeed the player.

I have to admit....

that if gaining Olson means losing a good/above average player(Gamble or up and comer Gettis) and a high draft pick(2nd or 3rd), I’m not so excited about the deal.

by Derek Leazer on Jul 28, 2011 7:28 PM EDT reply actions  

Let's look at this from a different side folks...

If it is Gettis…

Hurney just traded a 2nd year 6th round WR and another pick for a 1st Round should be All-Pro 26 year old TE. It’s not a terrible deal, even if it is Gettis.

I disagree

It doesn’t matter where Gettis was picked in the NFL draft. I mean Tom Brady was a sixth round draft pick and I don’t think that’s hindered his draft value any.

The fact is Gettis is going to be a #1 receiver. He has top end speed and made a big impact on a terrible offensive team as a rookie with no QB. I truly believe he will end up being more valuable than Olsen ever will.

Okay my take:

If it’s Gettis (which is the worst case scenario) then this team is still immediately better, by a large margin.

I liked him too, but LaFell and Gettis were very close last year talent wise, and one of them has to be resigned to playing the 3rd WR spot.

If we’re going after a new WR then I bet all signs point to Braylon Edwards over Malcolm Floyd

We just got better. A LOT better. We traded a promising but unproven WR whom we got in the 6th round, for a star TE.

this written by Aaron Schatz (take with a grain of WHO DAT?)

As for what Olsen will do in Carolina: He has never had a DVOA (a measure of efficiency per play) above 0 percent since he entered the NFL. Only once has he had a catch rate above 60 percent; the average for tight ends is about 65 percent. He has a rookie quarterback too.

In other words, don’t expect a big year.

Disagree.

Win-win. We didn’t need Connor, but they still got a great player.

I'd be content with Connor and a 3rd.

Happy with Connor and a 4th

sounds fair to me

i agree olsen is a top 10 TE, but considering his stat line last year, connor and a 5th sounds about right to me. good job marty for not overpaying, if its true
