Which i still don't understand.  If we considered him a franchise QB, I don't understand why we wouldn't fully guarantee those years.  But thats above my pay grade.

I think fully guaranteeing his previous contract would have made sense but the browns tacked on nearly 80m more AND fully guaranteed all of it.  I can get the reluctance.  However it wouldn't have shocked me if we had done that.

How does he mentor him? Mathieu and Woods would start, so where is Chinn going to play or are we again signing big deals for backups? This one doesn’t make sense to me unless Chinn is bulking up to be a LB and then Mathieu isn’t a mentor either. 

Id assume Chinn will play the monster back role in the defense. 2 linebackers with Chinn

He definitely didn't want to come here.

Remember when we heard Fitts wanted to talk to Cam before free agency? How does him knowing Watson come in? Does Cam want to come back to the Panthers to win the weakened NFCS? Remember what Cam said about standards last year. Aside from QB it seems Fitts has put things together in free agency for that last piece. QB1 we won't be without for long and if you ask me I'd rather have a FA QB that has played in the Superbowl, won Championships. The odds of that person doing it again is greater than anybody's next great QB.

Maybe he knew Cam may not be able to turn down an offer from the Panthers and his decision was not to step on big bro's toes.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
