I'm not your typical negative Nancy n wonder if Duce n Frank pitched this. I actually thinks Fitts maybe our best ever Hope I'm wrong about Sanders. Just thought we could get better reps for 3 million less. I hope I'm as wrong as this sub does, but you know them, Marvin Mcnutt is gold you hater!

I think we have to wait until we see him behind our OL and our scheme. I personally don’t think RB is that big of a need when you can draft one in any round this year and come out with a good one but as far as Sanders’ contract goes I don’t mind it.

I’d probably have gone cheap and just signed someone like Jeff Wilson but I’m not going to hate on the Sanders deal because I think his contract is very fair.

Below is the AAV’s for NFL running back’s, if Sanders is overpaid, it’s by a measly $350K a year.

As for Foreman, I think he showed that he is one dimensional last year. Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Tampa all shut him down last year down the stretch and unfortunately we ended up losing those games. When he isn’t breaking tackles, he doesn’t provide a whole lot.

 

You just begged my point. No shade at Sanders but why? Think you agree with me without joining this shitshows venom.

We have money to spend, might as well spend it. It would be one thing if we could get elite talent at the WR position but unfortunately the free agent WR group is trash.

Running back and tight end are the next best options to address for a young QB and the Panthers addressed both.

Hope I didn't spew at you, was tired of getting accosted. Your points were great. Fear the huddle reading them. The staff has been perfect up to and including 2 firsts for Sean Gilbert. Never disagree with them! Blame everyone and your friends later!

Sanders is probably 6x better than Hubbard. Hubbard had a few nice runs last year but he’s still butt cheeks. The new system probably needs a RB with hands, that ain’t Chuba 

This. To ME, Hubbard is cut worthy and we could draft someone in the 6th round that’s better. He has terrible hands in terms of ball security AND receiving. It’s not like he’s got game breaking speed. He was opportune, as many other backs in this system were. Much rather have Sanders/ Kendre Miller.

If we’re off by $2M for a WR that has barely cracked the 1K mark and has never played a full season then he wanted too much money anyway in my opinion.

He’s really the only young WR left so we’ll probably have to overpay a bit but it is what it is I guess, shout-out John Fox.

But yeah, in reality, that deal needs to get done. There’s nothing else out there at the WR position.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
