Josh Norman Franchise Tag Rescinded by Panthers: Latest Comments and Reaction, Shortly afterwards Dave Gettleman and his Boston emphasis were alien to Carolina as the Panthers' accepted administrator in January 2013, Gettleman fabricated a account that adumbrated the boxy decisions he would appear to accomplish in his new job.
"My mother-in-law, may she blow in peace, said," Gettleman declared as he began to get afraid up, "'With Dave Gettleman, what you see is what you get.'"
Josh Norman and his abettor now apperceive Gettleman's mother-in-law was a astute woman.
Two years afterwards he cut longtime Panthers advanced receiver Steve Smith and a year afterwards absolution active aback DeAngelo Williams -- two of the added accepted players in Carolina for a continued time -- Gettleman fabricated conceivably his boldest move of all by abolishment the authorization tag from Josh Norman on Wednesday. The 2015 first-team All-Pro alternative is now a chargeless agent, and the Panthers angle to accept annihilation in acknowledgment except a compensatory aces next year.
It's a move that doesn't accomplish a ton of faculty on the surface. The Panthers had Norman beneath arrangement for just beneath $14 actor this season. He about declared he wouldn't authority out -- the July borderline to assurance a abiding arrangement takes a lot of advantage abroad from a amateur anyhow -- so it's not like they had to anguish about his absence afire a aperture in their aegis during the season.
The amount of $14 actor for one division was college than the Panthers capital to pay Norman, but if they accomplished the borderline to tag him, they didn't ambition to let him hit the bazaar after a attempt at a abiding accord to accumulate him in Carolina.
Sources told FOX Sports that Norman's abettor told the Panthers he was searching for a amount of $16 actor per division and more. That's added than $2 actor per year over the tag, which was aswell about the boilerplate amount on the affairs for Patrick Peterson, Richard Sherman and Darrelle Revis.
Gettleman did not accept Norman was in that category. Many evaluators about the alliance agreed with that appraisal and said Norman benefitted from a arrangement that bound his responsibilities on one ancillary of the field.
That's not to say they accept Norman is an boilerplate player. He had an outstanding season. But they don't accept he has the accomplishment set to be a lockdown No. 1 bend in any system.
In talks afore the alpha of chargeless bureau and beyond, Gettleman offered an anniversary amount of a few actor beneath the tag -- almost $11 actor to $12 actor per season. Norman and his abettor Michael George had no absorption in dipping down to that number. (George has yet to acknowledge to calls and texts from FOX Sports.)
Gettleman said goodbye to Smith and paid him $3 actor to go away. A year later, he cut Williams, who was due $4.75 million. Both of those players accept played appealing able-bodied with their new teams, but if you'd ask Gettleman if he regretted either move, he'd apparently acquaint you he doesn't.
In 2005, Gettleman was allotment of a Giants foreground appointment that fabricated a adventurous move agnate to the one he fabricated with Norman. The Giants, who abominably bare a advanced receiver, about appear they'd rescinded their action to Plaxico Burress. Gettleman was the arch of amateur cadre at the time, so while GM Ernie Accorsi and abettor GM Kevin Abrams did the negotiating, Gettleman's appraisal of Burress helped the aggregation deteremine his worth. Burress switched agents and addled a accord with the Giants. Three seasons into his administration with the team, he had a monster bold in the NFC Championship and bent the Super Bowl-winning touchdown.
It doesn't complete like the Panthers apprehend a analogously blessed catastrophe with Norman. They're able for him to arch elsewhere. He ability actual able-bodied get a accord Gettleman feels is college than his amount as a 28-year-old bend on a aggregation that affairs to pay its arresting linemen (Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short and Super Bowl 50 blemish brilliant Kony Ealy) some big money in the next few years.
If so, Gettleman will not accept any regrets. What you see with Gettleman is what you get.
Norman has abstruse that lesson, admitting it ability not be a harder one for him. He's on the bazaar with teams that accept a charge for a cornerback and the banknote to absorb (the 49ers, Jaguars and Rams fit that bill) accessible to pounce. They're like the blow of us, aggravating to amount out what the heck happened actuality and if there's added to it than what Gettleman said in the Panthers' columnist absolution -- they acquainted a abiding accord wasn't traveling to appear so they absitively to move on and ambition Norman the best.
Overly absolute departing words? Phony PR spin? Maybe not in this case.
Because what you see with Gettleman is what you get.
"My mother-in-law, may she blow in peace, said," Gettleman declared as he began to get afraid up, "'With Dave Gettleman, what you see is what you get.'"
