Fish: Under Consideration, Negotiation, Greg Hardy To be in Valley Ranch soon *Mega merged*

[Risen Star]

64 million dollar question right now. Not even real NFL GM's have that figured out yet.
Don't be surprised at any number when he does sign with whoever.
It could be crazy low with tons of incentives, it could be astronomical. I am extremely interested in seeing how this plays out.

Jerry: ~cupping phone~ He wants to know our best offer. What we're willing to pay him.

Stephen: That's the 64 million dollar question.

Jerry: ~back on phone~ We'll do 64 million.

64m what are you crazy? that would cripple us for decades....oh wait, I see what you did there.....KCCO

Awesome. Big smile from that one.

How much would Hardy command?

Normally he would probably be somewhere in this area. But he probably doesn't have the suitors for that now.

JPP signed a 1 yr deal for 14.8
Robert Quinn averages 14.2
Charles Johnson averages 12.7 (Free agent 2017)
Chris Long averages 12.0 (Free agent 2017)
DeMarcus Ware averages 10.0 (Free agent 2017)
Jerry Hughes signed 5 yr that averages at 9.0

I've been at work since 1, what's going on now?

 

[Arkyvarminter]

Ok, I don't know a lot about Hardy. Someone compare him to another player or who he reminds you of. Is he in same class as JPP???

Ahh, the old "according to sources" rears it's ugly head.

I'd put him above JPP

Nada nada nada, nada dang thing.
What's Duke Ellington without that swing?

 

[Corso]

I'd put him above JPP

Better than JPP's best year, honestly.

 

[Dave_in-NC]

Your probably correct.

 

[Arkyvarminter]

WOW...

 

[Corso]

WOW...

Wow what?

 

[Szczepanik]

I'd expect an incentive based deal based on suspensions. You can get X amount of money if 4 games, Y amount for 6 games, etc.

 

[Dave_in-NC]

WOW...

As said in this thread. He would not only be an upgrade at DE, he would elevate the players on defense. That doesn't come along all that often.
He's really the only Panther I like.

From those highlights, Carolina definitely had a better pass rush than us. .. Wonder how well hardy would perform without as much help?

I know he would strengthen the unit, and that's a positive... Just curious if he's as elite as his #s

Now that is a great question. This line boasts... Crawford and hopefully a developing Lawrence. The rest are guys, no more, no less.
He is a top end talent- no doubt and he would improve not only the entire line, but the entire defense, but how much? Especially when it will be him eating all the double-teams.

Did he take on consistent double teams in Carolina? I'd like to know that...
