Panther fans were finally woken from their grumbling slumber to learn that the Carolina Panthers signed free agent running back LaBrandon Toefield and linebacker Landon Johnson. Johnson, who has lead the Cincinnati Bengals in tackles for the past several seasons, has signed a contract worth $10 million for three years. Toefield, who has langiushed behind Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew in Jacksonville, signed a one year contract worth $750,000. The Panthers hope that Toefield can help in third down situations. Johnson will compete with N'aill Diggs for a starting outside linebacker position. These signing come as the initial wave of free agent signings slow down. Many experts feel that the Panthers are filling key support positions in preparation for this year's upcoming draft.
