Wouldn't it make sense then to sign Samuel to a slot WR contract and find a rookie outside guy in the draft, economically speaking?  As far as production, Robbie in a new system allowed him to have some nice game early in the season, but it seemed once teams got tape on how he was being used here in Carolina, his production fell off.

Depends on his market value. I think someone will likely overpay. We never really got to see what Robbie might be capable of in Brady's system because his strength is going deep and Teddy's deep ball is trash.

After reports of Panthers offering Bridgewater in the trade package to Detroit for Stafford, it would be weird and awkward to include him in that picture. It's pretty obvious that he's not part of 2021's plans, which is a breath of fresh air having a coaching staff that is willing to admit that they made a mistake.

Robbie started hot out of the gate, but faltered as the season went on.  Call me partial, but I would rather re-sign Samuel now and let Anderson walk in FA after next season.

Anderson didn't falter, Bridgewater's inability to play to Robbie's strengths was what slowed Robbie down. I saw it too many times! Romo even mentioned it one game: Teddy threw the ball to Robbie too late in the route! If he could have timed his throws better, Robbie would have been open for more scores and more YAC.

Robbie's early season stats say Teddy and him were on the same page.  He didn't produce another 100 yard game after week 5 and had essentially 4 of them through those 5 games (99 in week 4).

The problem is that someone is likely to offer Samuel a contract more befitting of a solid #2/borderline #1 than a slot/gadget guy that he is and we don't need to be getting in a bidding war at that rate. McCaffrey also needs some slot reps. Hell, I'd rather dumpster dive for my WR3, get a solid 2nd rb and play more 2 RB sets with McCaffrey as a receiver.

This. A lot of those gadget plays we drew up for Samuel will likely be going to CMC next year. We just didn't have CMC and Samuel was the best fill in we had.

I believe Curtis can actually play on the outside and he will be much cheaper than Robbie will be when he hits FA.  Heck, he's due $12M this coming season and he's our #2.   Lost in this conversation is DJ Moore who also has a contract soon to expire.

I don't think so. His production took a big jump once we signed a legit outside WR so that he could primarily operate out of the slot. He never looked comfortable on the outside IMO.

      Verge, why do you like Mykel Williams?

      No, but considering that over a third (~35%) of their schedule are the other three teams in the NFC South and all three have strong starting (and back-up) RBs that the offense leans heavily on to open up the pass game. ATL: Bijan has this season and next season before the Falcons have to make a decision on his fifth-year option, Tyler Allgeier is a proven back-up RB that could start for some teams, and 2024 sixth-round selection Jase McClellan returns from a knee injury that sidelined him for the remainder of the season starting in early September. Combine that with their QB situation, and that's a team that is going to lean heavily on the run just like they did last season when they were 8th in the league in rushing attempts, 10th in rushing yards, 8th in rushing TDs, 9th in rushing attempts on 1st down, . NO: Similar situation as ATL, but for different reasons. Derek Carr is in the second to last year of his deal and the QBs behind him are Spencer Rattler, Jake Haener, and Ben DiNucci. However, they also have Alvin Kamara. One thing that we know about Kellen Moore from his stints as an OC is that he likes to lean heavily on a versatile RB1 while bringing in an arguably equally versatile RB2 to keep their foot on opposing defenses. When Moore had Zeke in Dallas, Zeke was 4th in the league in touches during those four years but Pollard still averaged 10 touches and nearly 60yds a game. Look for the Saints to shore up their RB room in the draft with Kendre Miller, CEH, Jordan Mims, and Xazavian Valladay all competing for touches behind Kamara. TB: Bucky Irving exploded onto the scene last season, but we can't forget more than capable (now-)RB2 Rachaad White. White is on the last year of his rookie deal, but Irving is under contract until 2028. Last season, the Bucs were 10th in rushing attempts, 4th in rushing yards, 3rd in YPC, 7th in carries of 20+, 8th in carries of 40+, and 7th in first down rushing attempts and that helped Baker Mayfield be one of the most efficient passers in the league with a 71.4% completion percentage (good enough for 2nd in the league).
