Moton is the only one that is hard for me on your list because he would have dead cap while also getting rid of a good player. I'm just not sure about an extension either due to his age but then having to replace him. Just let him play next year and focus on that next year. It's hard for me to take 'fixing' the D seriously at this point with Evero still here. Putting money into guys who helped allow the most points ever is also a hard pass for me. They need to try different people and dump a few under contract if theybare seriousnabout improving. This is my lowest point. I don't belive in this build and all I hope for is that this crew doesn't do the quality of work you described Hurney doing.

Just depends on price IMO. Like I said they need a starter on a rookie deal with Ickey looking at his next contract soon. If he takes backup money then cool but if not then next please.

Look at their PFFs for who was more effective. It's close with BC having the edge. It's imperfect but it's what's out there. Second part? No idea. BC has been getting passed over the entire time here, regardless of if he should have or not. Maybe there is something we can't see from the bleachers? Just giving Mays a shot to take the spot because BC is a backup in their minds too? Strengths falling to weaknesses can happen fast in the NFL. One devastating injury away from having less talent and a now bad contract to deal with. Brining in rookies helps balance that a little because their contracts are all easaly eatable after the first round and they give balance to the giant cost of good vet contracts who are also getting older and more vulnerable to injury.

I just see Mays as a slightly less effective BC. He isn't good enough to be the starter IMO and brining in a 2nd round OC, like we should have for years now, will balance the youth the the age that the free agent signings last year made lopsided IMO. Draft a good OC so that unit stays good when an OG goes down, which will happen again in at least spots. No to BC anyways, the contracts last year suggest they need a new and good rookie to be that guy. It would be interesting to see what BC and Mays would take but if it's not backup money then no thank you. Honestly if OC was the only offensive player drafted this year that wouldn't be bad IMO...a day 3 rb or TE being the exception. Keep Z unless someone offered a day 2 pick in my scenario. Tremble is in the category of can you do better? It really shouldn't be hard to improve a smidge at least by looking elsewhere but if not then it also shouldn't be too difficult to bring him back. He is an example of where they should try to improve but not burn bridges at the same time.

Mike Jackson The rest are in the hell no to they better do better range. BC would have to be overpaid and they need to draft a starter at OC which shouldn’t be him, he just isn'tgood enough. Dalton should retire, WTF is the point of a backup if he can't play more than one game before falling apart? If you're doing this list then you should also look at the next category which is dead weight but still under contract in 2025 that should be dumped.

Because this team still stinks and going nowhere. Not one team in the division is actually good yet the hope of turning it around is still hovering near zero. Poor drafting, poor team building, still overpaying the wrong guys and still hiring poorly equals the Panthers. The reality is that Panthers fans that still belive anything is changing for the better are essentially Jets fans now. Bryce is the future is no different then Roger's will get us a SB. If you like that then feast on it but I'm going to continue to laugh at it.

Lol a rookie with a few games gave him a run. Toilet bowl highlights are his highs and yall slurp it up. How's that dookie taste. Maybe next year they will get 6 wins...keep twisting it to make yourself feel better that the Panthers are a loser team going nowhere

Hilarious cope in Pantherland. Bryce gets beat down by a Bucs team with terrible pass defense that couldn't even win 1 game in the wild card round and then bearly wins agaisnt the Falcons in a lame divisional game which somehow solidifies Young as the future. What a sad circlejerk Panther's fandom has evolved into. It's all so embarrassing but at least it's entertaining.

They are both limited physically and can perform when carried by the talent around them but won't be carrying much on their own as a QB. They are more similar than different. Their supporting casts are different for sure. Brock has a better arm & size and Bryce is a better runner, pretty much a wash IMO because neither are good enough to really make a difference in that comparison.

It literally says it pulled away from the pack so yeah it was a stand out compared to the usual level. Same as in SC. Plenty of corporate welfare in America but Tepper has shown his has those issue when he is involved. I have no idea how it looks from the outside but businesses like Walmart and Amazon all do it a little different. The NFL does stadiums and taxes but even their deals are unique from each other. Tepper is now known for bad public deals at this point with the last one not as bad as SC but it certainly wasn't good.

Is high cost, lack of transparency, poor returns and questionable economic justifications the Tepper Sports & Entertainment's mission statement core?

That's part of why I said I would like to see him with a better DC. I haven't been impressed with Evero or his scheme since he came here.

Play him next year to prove he can stay healthy before an extension. Either he is worth franchise money or he isn't, if he can stay healthy 1 more year than this year wasn't the fluke from a health perspective. I'd also love to see him with a better DC. Curious what a Saleh could do with him.

He is worth the 5th year option regardless. He is a good run blocker and an ok pass protector. Depending on what he is looking for in a contact should determine if they keep or trade him. Once they pick up the 5th year option the conversations should begin about a new contract and it's on the front office to come up with a gameplan once they see the other side's demands. The oline has a lot of money tied up in it but it also still has needs. Moton isn't getting younger or cheaper and OC is a position that should be upgraded with a rookie ASAP.

Should be a latter pick and they need to be healthy. Brooks isn't anything until he can prove he is which won't be soon, he should be basically non-existent as far as planning goes. If it's an early pick then these people should get fired.

This build isn't going anywhere anyways. If they can't bring in talent without overpaying then it won't change.

Neither are very good overall so it's not that surprising DC likes him. Both have poor taste in players this year and both underwhelmed in their coaching duties. There really is nothing impressive about this team from top to bottom. None of those people have excuses large enough to hide behind, Evero and Morgan have been here 2 years doing poorly. Canales is such a wet noodle of a hire. All pompoms and no sack. Backing a 2nd year DC that leads the 32/32 D is not surprising at this point.

Who wouldn't I take over Bryce at this point if you are talking just based on upside?

People keep waiting on the hope that Bryce will turn into a franchise QB but the QBs with bright futures, not all of it but the ones that should have a bright career even with NFL sized hurtles, don't take 3 years to show something truly great. Stroud did it last year and Daniels is doing it this year as rookies. Young's best requires the other team to be having a terrible day and it's still meh that seems to amaze some desperate Panther fans. Same with the HC and GM. Meh. Morgan would have been a cool success story but that doesn't look that much different than the last guy.

Vastly overrated and when he was given choices of players he chose poorly. Meh D coordinator. Could take over a great D and do OK but I don't belive he could build a top D.

Updating this site to needing to protect fragile opinions that keep the site going somehow. Peak huddle in the dark ages of Panther football.

The only culture they have built is to further cement the losing culture they already had. Bryce is perfect to keep that legacy going. It's actually a perfect marriage.

Bryce isn't it but neither will the next mistake be it. Same with coaching and team management. The entire package is trash, not just the bad QB with so little upside. Love replaced DC after all that fluff and it looks like an easy upgrade for them. One game left and they still have 80 more points than last year on O. The oline improved but there is still so little talent they brought in elsewhere. A freaking UDFA was their best rookie where meh is an achievement apparently.

Another terrible year knowing next year will also be terrible. That's all Tepper has given this team. The knowledge it's not going to be getting better. That's ruin. He is a bottom of the barrel owner who owns and runs a bottom dweller team. Just change the mascot to a toilet with a giant turd clogging it and make '2 states who don't want to claim this team' as the logo.

Young has his best game and it still required the other team shooting themselves in the foot to barely get a win. Some of you must love to be disappointed. The only thing Young has done is raise his value when they inevitably trade him because, checks stats, he is still a loser in the NFL.
