Re: Report: Hackett Agrees to Terms with Panthers

According to Hacketts agent and ESPN, he chose Carolina over Seattle, Washington and Tampa Bay and that Hackett recieved only a "minimum salary offer from the Redskins."

ESPN - Panthers agree to two-year deal with WR Hackett - NFL

I'm not sure what promises other teams made to him, but I believe the Redskins made it pretty clear to him he wasn't going to be brought in here to be the main guy. Not even necessarily #2 either.

I'm sure that is a factor...they couldn't say he'd be #2 because they'd have to pay him more than Randel El...who makes like 4 mil a year.

He was probably looking for a #2 opportunity.
I think he has that in Carolina...with Muhammed being 35 and all.

But that kind of money is pretty cheap...offering even less than 1.75/yr....he may have been insulted and said BUH-BYE.

Its not like the Skins didn't have the cap room to make a decent offer.
Same with Tampa....something must be wrong with him other than injury that the Skins and Tampa and Seattle didn't like. I am truly suprised at the low ball offer considering he was our only FA target....I'd think most here who wanted him would have been elated at a 2 mil/yr deal

They better be prepared to bring in a stellar draft class.
