This gos against one of rules about telling people how to live and such, but god help the panther fans that think hardcore about off-season during a entertainment playoff push..

I can enjoy the present and yet still save money and invest in my future. They aren’t mutually exclusive. It’s a Tuesday…not like we are worrying about this stuff mid game.

Yea I normally avoid this, again Im big on freedom as much as possible... Plus Ive been pissy the last few weeks(moving??). I just wanted to the board happy(lololloldreamlollloll) and talking current playoff (hope) panthers and worry about off-season in the off-season. Carry on and keep pounding.

Players currently under contract through ‘22 season:

QB- Darnold (yuck)
RB- CMC, Hubbard
FB- obsolete?
WR- DJ Moore, Anderson, Marshall, Smith, D. Moore
TE- Tremble
OT- Moton, Erving, Christensen
OG- Daley, Brown, Moore
C- Elflein
 
DT- Brown, Roy, Nixon, Hoskins
DE- Burns, Fox, YGM
MLB- ????
OLB- Shaq, ???
DB- Horn, Henderson, Bouye, Pride, Taylor, Thomas-Oliver
S- Chinn, Franklin, Hartsfield
 
Special teams: Fletcher, Charlton
 
Free Agents [potential replacement]:
Cam (QB) [?]
Reddick (OLB) [?]
Paradis (C) [Elflein?]
Burris (SS) [Hartsfield]
D Jax & Gilmore (CB). [Bouye, Henderson]
John Miller (RG). [Christensen/Brown]
Ian Thomas (TE). [Tremble]
J Carter (LB) [?]

 

The OL is it’s own animal, but in a dream scenario Daley can hold down LT and Elflein is serviceable at C. (Big assumptions, sure). I’ve been of the opinion that interior play has been worse than the tackles. 
 

In that case, biggest remaining issues:

- Glaring hole at QB1, perhaps that problem magically goes away if Cam plays well and takes a home team discount to extend

- CB is loaded, not sure we can afford both D Jax and Reddick. If can only keep one, I’d prefer to keep Reddick. Good news is losing Jax could net a 3rd rounder in a ‘23 comp pick. 

- how much does it cost to keep Carter and/or upgrade MLB?

I’d argue our cap is in pretty good shape. Yes, “only” $35 mil in ‘22, but over $100 mil in ‘23 and beyond. We can do some trickery with extensions of good, young players to make it through next year. 

Are you on drugs?

Miller or Daley should never, ever, step on any football field again.
