Captain Morgan

One of general manager Dan Morgan‘s top priorities this offseason is an extension for cornerback Jaycee Horn, per ESPN’s David Newton. Carolina selected Horn with the eighth overall pick in 2021 hoping he could lock down one side of their passing defense. Injuries limited him to just 22 games across his first three years, followed by his first career Pro Bowl selection this season. His negotiations won’t be as simple as fellow 2021 top-10 pick Patrick Surtain, who reset the cornerback market with a four-year, $96MM extension in September. Surtain has played in all but two of the Broncos’ game since he was drafted with three Pro Bowls in the last three years. Horn, however, has not been consistently available, and despite his Pro Bowl recognition this year, he allowed career-highs in touchdowns (6) and passer rating when targeted (92.7). Guaranteed money will be a key factor in negotiations; the Panthers may prefer a rolling guarantee structure that kicks in after Horn proves he can stay healthy for another year or two. https://www.profootballrumors.com/2025/01/panthers-will-work-to-extend-jaycee-horn

believe the announcer said he played QB in high school

Raiders have second most cap space next year, they can afford him

long term ilb is a must....really want to get one in the first in a year or two, but next year hope to get one in the second. I think our first next year is the time to go after our long term WR1 in the first

I remember some one asking Coach about using 2 te's and his face lit up, said my offense is built around that concept

2 edges? I'm not against it. Our DTs will be better with the return of Derrick and yes to Fannin. We have a ton of picks, let tremble go and draft someone better cheaper.

I was seeing and thinking the same thing, but if he is considering it PAY THE MAN. Call him and let's devote our draft to defense

Rams lost....waiting on tankathon to update

Rams are losing with 25 secs left....our 2nd rnd pick might improve

looks like our second rd pick from the Rams will be in the 42 or 43 range...about the 23rd or 24th pick. Was much higher earlier but they won a bunch of games in the 2nds half of the season

https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/year/2025/team/car/sort/contract_value Corbett is gone...we need a center better than Mays. As Bear Hands pointed out 3 months ago, Brady is going to get paid and not by us. I'd love to keep him at center but we can't afford to put that much in our Oline with Ickey about to get paid. I want CB Jackson back, even if we find someone better to come in. Tremble? Shaq is a FA but he's almost 31 and injured all the time. We drastically need to improve at linebacker. Would love a DT Edge combo in the first two rounds and to find a stud LB in FA. Moore won't get a lot of attention from other teams and I'd love to keep him as depth. Thielen has one more year on his contract. We gotta hope XL will eat more raccoons and improve. What do you want to do with backup QB? I have no problem bringing Dalton back, he's been a good teammate, but I read this week that the Dallas backup is coming to Charlotte

and we have a lot to be optimistic about. But before the draft, a big free agency season begins. I'll add some quotes in a moment "The #Panthers won their thrilling season-finale in overtime to finish 5-12. Now GM Dan Morgan’s work begins again. Carolina has 21 unrestricted free agents and five restricted free agents to sort through this offseason. Commentary & predictions on all;" Morgan, in particular, will have a lot of work to do this offseason. The defense needs substantial upgrades, and the offense shouldn’t be a finished product, either. Plus, all three specialists are set to hit free agency in March. With an eye toward the future, the Panthers need to consider who they want to bring back for the next chapter of the Canales era. Given the number of one-year deals signed last year, there will be several tough decisions to make in the coming weeks and months. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article297418518.html

Tankathon's new mock, probably done by bots, still has us getting Carter at 8

tankathon's site down...been an active day

wow!!!! suck it Failcons

damn Coke good catch!

Bucs just scored, they will win the south

Bears also won today

Patriots just beat the Bills and join the 4 win clubs

Bryce QB rating right now is 135

Patriots up by 4 with the ball with 3 mins to play....Bills must be resting starters. If NE wins, that'll be their 4th. and it looks like they'll win

what's worse, the food at Burger King or those stupid singing commercials?

Mike Kaye @mike_e_kaye · 1m Miles Sanders has eclipsed 100 all-purpose yards for the first time as a #Panthers player (52 rush, 50 rec). He also has his first-ever receiving TD with Carolina (his first since his rookie season in Philly, btw)

lol Falcons board must be fun right now
