Good grief

I was never a fan regardless of his projected role.  He struggled with drops since college and that didn't change here.  He was lazy, his route running was lackluster, and far too often seemed to lack situational and positional awareness.  Maybe a change of scenery and playing for an offensive-minded, innovative coach will turn all that around, but I'm skeptical.

I wasn't either, and certainly not at that price. But he will be in an easier spot to succeed in now.

Doesn't mean that he will of course, but it does better his chances.

2019:

Devin Funchess:
$13 Million

D.J. Moore + Curtis Samuel + Jarius Wright + Torrey Smith:
$11,765,690

No way Funchess should be making that kind of money. That's insanity.

Edit: Good for him though. He's gettin' paiddd. And should get plenty of targets in Indy. So even if he drops half of 'em, he should still have a ton of yards. Good career move on his part.

Somebody want to let me in on how comp picks work?  Is it salary for the next year or is the total deal taken into account?  

What round comp will we get for 13mil?

He was the softest wide out in the league mentally and physically. So happy to be rid of him. 

Just to piggyback off this, He also had the most "cramps" in the history of the Panthers.

$13 mill for a dude with the ceiling of Brandon Lafell. Funchess’ agent deserves MVP.

 

Way to get paid young man.

I still believe in Funchess. Things went sideways down the stretch in 2018, but he had his moments in 2017. Turns 25 in May, which is rare for a second contract player.

It will turn out to be $10 million, plus $3 mill incentives.

On the plus side, this bodes well for the #Panthers compensatory pick formula.

Happy for Funchess, seems like a good dude.  At times he looked like a young Brandon Marshall but could never put it all together. 

[Camp Fodder]

Odd it’s only one year though

[w280sax]

Can someone smarter than me explain how much compensatory pick that might get.
