Per Rap:

The #Panthers agreed to terms with former #Saints CB Eli Apple, who appeared to be headed to the #Raiders in free agency only to have it fall apart.

Definitely won’t mind facing him twice a year

Brees will look forward to free burnt toast twice next year.

No. It needed to happen a month or more back. I forget the date.

That'll help Teddy gain more confidence in practice.

Nope. Same reason we waited on the Winston signing.

He'll get abused by Brees and co. who knows all of his weaknesses without a doubt! His nickname will of course be "toast" this season.

Love our boys wish him the best against everyone but us.

Love Teddy too I appreciate what he did for us. Wish him the worst he got his bag already.

I love all the men who represented our colors and they loved being here as well.

Everyone hates on Apple, but he was the piece our defense needed in 2018. It was him coming to the team that solidified our secondary and turned that D around. Saints fans surely are a fickle bunch

Anyone know how much he got?
I'm guessing right around 3.5 or 4 mil

Reminds me of that Simpsons scene with Willie:

Brothers and sisters are natural enemies.
Like Falcons and Saints.
Or Panthers and Saints.
Or Bucs and Saints.
Or Saints and other Saints.

Damn Saints fans! They ruined the Saints!

You Saints fans sure are a contentious bunch.

You just made and enemy for life!

I feel the same way. I think he was a good player for us that was prone to mistakes. His overall game was solid, but he lacked consistency. Drew will take advantage of him, but I can see him winning the majority of battles with whomever he is covering.

@RapSheet
The #Panthers signed veteran CB Eli Apple for a 1-year deal worth $3M, source said. That includes a $750K signing bonus. All things considered, a nice payday this late in the game for Apple, who appeared to have a deal with the #Raiders before it fell through during free agency.
Would have been a nice signing for depth at that price.
