Regular Season Transactions
Panthers send QB Dexter Dudley to Texans for 2012 5th, we just thought that Dexter deserved the opportunity to battle for a starting position, once we decided to go with rookie QB Tristan Riley. Former 1st round pick Tallon Tolliver is picked up to be QB3 behind Riley and Steven Dudley.
FS Rory Green lost his job to rookie SS Cashmere Lawrence and was traded to the Cardinals for a 2nd rounder in 2012
CB Richard Marshall fell to CB5 on the depth chart and demanded a trade...he was sent to the Giants for a 2nd and 6th in 2013
One Time MVP Carl Stewart was sent to the Ravens for 3rd and 7th in 2013, the Ravens would later cut him.
DB Ken Lucas sent to the Saints for a 7th in 2012 and 2nd in 2013. Lucas had lost his staring job first at CB then at FS and wanted out.
Panthers resign FB Dan Krieder to another 1yr extension, for $790k yr.
The Panthers used the Franchise Tag on WR Roy Williams, but weren't able to trade him, so they cut him and resigned him after no one picked him up. They were still unable to resign him all season...so it remains to be seen if Coach Joslin says enough is enough and lets the diva go.
Undrafted Rookie Free Agent WR Braxton Wooden (79/92) was given a 6yr deal worth $15.8M with a $5.5M bonus...possibly spelling the end to Williams time in Carolina.
