Will Josh Norman command a big contract next offseason?

[CRA]

Stewart, Norwell and Turner were clearly most important in that but Tolbert was too. When we did have a lead blocker it was Tolbert and he was wayyyy more successful there than Dickson/Williams were while Tolbert was hurt.

Still used TEs at the end. They removed Tolbert from that. Tolbert pretty much blocked for Cam on direct shotgun runs...that was about it

You don't pay guys big and sweet deals who only have 7 games of legit play to their name....with lots of bad prior.

Yes, hopefully it just took him awhile to "get it". You still don't throw cash at a guy like that. A a nice R easonable deal should be offered....nothing more.

Where did I say throw cash or sweet deal? I said solid deal which would be similiar to reasonable deal.

What we both know is that if he goes through 2015 without a deal. While you might be OK with losing him. I am not. The guy has finally got what his role is. How to be premier. So what if it was 7 games. The fact that he shut down pretty much every receiver he was assigned to indicates to me he is too valuable to let him go. He will be worth a nice salary.

Is anyone else not quite as worried about TD's age given the circumstances of his career? I'm not saying that we should treat 33 year old Davis like 30 year old Davis, but part of me wonders of he's not still peaking, in part due to the fact that he sat out almost 3 full years. He certainly doesn't look like he's slowing down.

Since linebacker play has been so great in our defense I couldn't help but wonder what would happen when Davis gets injured or retires. This has me wishing we would draft a top OLB this year or next for insurance on Davis.

Big contract, lol. 2 INTs and decent DB play in Carolina makes this fanbase go crazy.

[Panthers Fanatic]

Let's extend him on the cheap(er) this offseason!

This will be Gettleman's 2nd priority after signing Cam to a long term deal.

Cam and Luke....Luke will only get more expensive

Too soon for Luke.

[neverlosethefeeling]

Too soon for Luke.

 

Huh? There's a basic consensus that he's the best MLB in the game.

 

[blackcat]

He's gonna play for free. Like Hardy.........

[t96]

Luke, Josh, TD, Cam, Greg, Greg all playing for free.... Gettlemagic.

Can't extend till season 4, for first round picks under new rookie rules.

When the new league year begins it will be his 4th season. At the very least we're picking up his 5th year option this off season, Much like we did with Cam last year.
