Lol this extension will have no impact on DJ's negotiations.  It's laughable that you think his agent is gonna use Robby's middle-of-the-road contract as a baseline for negotiations...he was always gonna use the Hopkins/Julio/Keenan Allen/Tyreek Hill type contracts as the starting point.  You think his agent is gonna be like "Well....Robby got $12.5 million/year and we both know DJ Moore is at least 75% better than Robby, so we want $22 million/year".  Modest contracts don't set the market for players like DJ Moore.

To think it doesn’t is madness. He we could have gotten that down to 18-20 with a full guarantee. Now 22 is the low end.

Reddick will be 27 next month.  He is on a one-year contract.  If he and Burns play well, he will want a contract and we will want to keep him.  Put your money on the edge rusher in his prime; he is very versatile, nice fit for what Snow is doing.

DJ, on the other hand, has year 4 (this year) and year 5 (2022).  He has solid depth behind him (Marshall, ShiSmith) and Anderson across from him.  No rush to sign DJ.  We could get  by without him, but to lose an edge rusher in his prime to fill the WR cup to the brim does not make much sense.

I like DJ, but you have to step back from your emotions.   Reddick is the answer.

And Jackson?  No.  He is good, but Taylor is the next CB across from Horn.  And not many people are saying so, but the light seemed to come on for Stantly Thomas Oliver III.  Throw in Harsfield, Bouye, and Pride, we are OK at CB.  Let him go.  I like the person and his sense of humor, but its business.

It's just basic fan speculation with no actual roots in reality.

there are decades of players and agents discussing the scenario in great detail.   And Robbie and his team being sane and wanting a deal for Robby before the season starts….is common sense being applied to the situation.       

and Robby got his deal.  Before the season started.   You would be a horrible agent if you didn’t think that timing mattered.  Robby’s agent did a good thing for Robby.  Now he has real insurance for the season.

is it speculation? Sure.  Rooted in the reality that is the NFL.     

and Robby got his deal.  Before the season started.  

It was supposedly also "common sense" that he was pissed about us trading for Darnold and wanted to get away from him.

Except...

Goofball fan theories aren't common sense at all, and the narratives put forth on here definitely were anything but.

It was dumb speculation. Hell, a lot of folks recognized that even back before this news broke.

15M a year for Robby? This is absolute trash. He’s worth 6-8M a year at the best. Welcome Hurney 2.0. Ffs.

I’d rather you just stick to this conversation where you to tell me some more about why it doesn’t really matter to Robby and his agent when a deal gets done.   Preseason or week 8…..it’s all the same per Mr Scott.   That blown ACL wouldn’t impact anything.  Carolina would just offer him the same deal as if it never happened.

Reddick over DJ? He hasn't played a down for Carolina yet. DJ is only 24 years old and wide receiver is a very coveted position in a pass happy league. Way too early for any of this. It hinges more on the development of our rookie receivers this year and is also dependent on one of them stepping into a starting spot when Anderson moves on. This is a dilemma I'd rather not consider rn. Let's hope Darnold is as advertised around here.

It's always amazes me when ppl would rather stay stuck in stupidity arguing a losing point.. Instead of just admitting a bad take when facts and actual numbers are place in front of them...

After seeing reality, facts, and real numbers.. The plan is clear.. 2 year deal with DJ deal and the Development  of TMJ and Shi fitting nicely in that timeline... Add in a rising cap and there is no doubt Fitt has Atleast a plan that is functional.

I don’t get it. We finally have two solid starting wrs and some are complaining that we are extending one of them.  Some quickly has forgotten how we use to try our best to get someone opposite of Steve when Moose had left. Keyshawn, Hackett, Colbert, jarrett just to name a few. They will extend DJ when his time comes or if we have a suitable replacement . TMJ and Smith are looking promising but we have yet to see them in full action throughout a NFL season. I’m excited to see how this season goes he Darnold and turn things around and the o line can keep him upright

I'd rather you stick to posts that actually make sense, but that doesn't seem to be happening.

The reality is Anderson never held out. He didn't miss any mandatory time and only missed OTAs for family/personal reasons.

But the Chicken Littles always have to freak out about something.

I don’t know what did or didn’t happen.  I can only speculate.   Which is what people do here.

but Robby and his agent wanting that deal before the season started….is common sense.   To claim otherwise to that part, is throwing common sense out the window.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Yeah and he succeeded at an even higher level in LA with an even better surrounding cast. Goff is a guy that isn't really able to dramatically elevate players around him but he can make a good situation even better. He is capable of that. Some QB's aren't. I am not sure Dak is able to do that and he is in a similar "class" as Goff, IMO.

      Snow in the high country

      By rayzor · Posted

      i think i could handle that for a year. beyond that....i don't know.  back where we lived, when we had a few inches of snow, it might have been a couple feet because we weren't getting out and doing anything. i remember times where power would go out for days on end. we had propane and electric heat, depending on the floor. basement (had a couple bedrooms and a living room and kitchen down there) and main floor had gas logs. main floor gas logs was enough to take care of the upstairs, so we could stay warm and cook on the grill when we needed. we had a well so that was always an issue when the power went out. had to make sure tubs were filled with water for the toilets and we had gallons of water for drinking and cooking available. always had to make sure we were ready. that wasn't always the case. we had a couple moments where we were going through propane quickly and because we were dealing with the worst propane company in the world (amerigas) they wouldn't get out to put gas in our 900 gallon tank. made for some nerve racking moments.  i know y'all were probably a lot more able to handle that kind of thing, but after the little bit (comparatively) that we got here i just have no desire to get trapped again. maybe for a day or two a year get snowed in and i'm good.

      We finally get to see Brooks this week

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I think he is just drawing a DC to them line and that's about as far as his thought process went. It makes almost no sense outside of that. Also, it doesn't make sense for Pittsburgh or Seattle at this juncture either.  I think our "veteran" pool is basically gonna be the Dalton/Flacco tier or the "pick your poison" options of young busts(Jones/Z. Wilson) or wild, TO prone gunslingers(Darnold/Winston/etc). We have the option to pursue I genuinely believe(depending on the way the rest of this season goes), we either draft a QB in the top 10 or resign Dalton. Outlier third option on taking one of the wild gunslingers that Dave feels like he can work with.
