I have a feeling Hurney chooses Okung over Moton. I saw PFF claim we will likely resign Okung instead of Moton. Its in their FA article. I guess they are trying to think like Hurney

We have Paradis,Daley and Little under contract for next season that's it.... Lmfao Moton is the biggest priority especially for those wanting a first round QB.

His stats look good this year but do see him as a shut down type corner worth the huge contract he got? I'm totally wishing we still had him but the contract makes me wonder if we could have even afforded him.

He's the 7th highest paid cornerback.

His average salary per year is $14.5M over the term of the contract.

Big contract?  Yes.

Huge contract?  Not as salaries go for very good, established cover corners.

33. T RUSSELL OKUNG

The former No. 6 overall pick of the Seattle Seahawks has more than lived up to the billing. Now in his eleventh season and on his fourth team, Okung hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down when healthy. Over the last three years, Okung ranks as a slightly above-average pass-blocker and an above-average run-blocker, and he remains a valuable player at an important position.

Okung was traded from the Los Angeles Chargers to the Carolina Panthers before the 2020 season and has filled in seamlessly when he’s been available.

The veteran has earned a pass-blocking grade above 70.0 — with five grades above 75.0 — in each of the six games he has started in 2020. Coincidentally, he’s also recorded a pass-blocking grade of 71.0 or higher — with five grades above 75.0 — over his last six seasons.

Okung is now 33 but appears to be one of the many recent stalwart pass-protecting tackles who age very well and play long into their 30s if desired. He was one of the original players in recent years to negotiate his own contract (with help from advisors), so a perhaps unorthodox structure wouldn’t be surprising as his career winds down.

Prediction: Panthers sign Okung for three-years, $50 million. ($16.67M APY): $32.5M total guaranteed, $22.5M fully guaranteed at signing.
