If the panthers signed a FA one trick pony edge rusher who admitted to dogging all of last season quitting on his team, can’t play the run for s*** and whose potential has yet to materialize in 4 years for 25 million a year… the huddle would completely melt down and other teams would clown us. 

That would actually be a win of sorts. We offered 5 years and $27 mil, supposedly.

Of course the same guy that offered that also turned down an offer for two firsts for burns and ended up getting fired.

Burns is not a dawg. Hill I am willing to die on. Now let's see if Morgan was for real about how he wanted to build this team.

I said before that this is pretty much the Dan Morgan is legit test.

What he does with burns says a lot about what to expect going forward.

I'm just hoping that the teppers didn't make burns untouchable.

It probably won't matter in a couple of years except to a few hard core fanatics here.  If he gets traded or cut and plays well for another team, the hard core will claim its another DJ Moore, CMC situation and blame Morgan.  If we sign him for 30 a year, a different group of hard core fans will complain about that.

In the end though, Morgan will likely be judged on wins and what he does at QB if Young doesn't work out.

I just don't care if Burns is on the team or not.  In fact I associate him with losing.  I say take that money and let us build our offense up.  Let's become monsters on the offensive line and bring in some weapons.  I think it's easier to fix a defense then an offense now.  In fact the best defense is a good offense.  If we can control the ball and chew clock by sustaining drives it would be the best thing we could do for our defense with or without Burns.

I agree with all except want to pump the brakes on Burns. Am I correct that he wants 30 million and turned down 27 million? If so is he truly worth that much? If we were talking the top guy in the league or next to top guy in the league I understand but is Burns truly worth what he is wanting?

30 million no he isn't since he didn't play at full speed last year. Give him a 2 or 3 year with an option to talk after year two. Brown is coming up next year is he not.

Straight up let them go.. unless we can get them to sign on a good price.. Allowing us to  add to our team additional players who will help turn things around.
They are not what  a “franchise” player is. I always have assumed a franchise player is a guy who can by them-self make play after play that effects the game..

Luvu is close , Brown is as well, but Burns, He is not the guy that can just take the game into his hands and effect the out come of a game.

      We have to figure out our future core team

      By bythenbrs · Posted

      If we somehow magically learn to draft well [I know, don’t laugh], it will take at least 3 more drafts to produce a roster that can go 9-7 or 10-6 consistently.  Doing it in 2 would mean that we have miraculously ‘caught lightning in a bottle’, landing the future Luke, Cam, Smitty, Peppers in back to back drafts.  Those are some long odds.

      The Carolina Panthers should go back to Bryce Young

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      So, Bryce solves the problem of: Hubbard running for -2 to 1 yard on 2nd down and Miles Sanders getting lost on a 3rd & long screen play? Johnson dropping a short 1st down pass and refs allowing PI? Johnson giving up on his route against physical DBs and OL going down field on a pass play? Nijman giving up a sack in 2 seconds on 3rd and 4? Hubbard & M.Sanders failing on 2nd & short, 3rd & short, and 4th and short back to back to back? Hubbard with runs of -2 yards and 0 yards to set up 3rd & 12? Ekwonu on skates getting bull rushed into the QB on 3rd & 4 in 2 seconds? Those were how the 7 drives ended before Dalton led a TD drive anchored by a 30 yard pass with pressure in his face again. You think Bryce solves any of that? Then there's the issue of the RBs and TEs consistently struggling to win in the flats. That's 90% of Bryce's game. Will Bryce solve the defense giving up 30 points by half time? The Panthers offense only had 2 drives before Young came in the game late 4Q. Is no one else noticing the Panthers only get 1 complete drive in 3Q of games after trailing by 2 to 3 scores? The defense can't get off the field and Evero's high school blitzes can be seen pre-snap by anyone watching. Is Bryce going to fix that? QB is not the issue for this team. Dalton, Johnson, Thielen and Coker are the strength of the team followed by a hot (run) and cold (pass) OL. Adding an inconsistent QB in Bryce to inconsistent RBs, inconsistent TEs, and an inconsistent OL is going to do what? Does anyone trust Bryce to read the defense from the pocket after the snap? His receivers and Canales have made it known they don't. What Bryce had success on in HS and college doesn't work in this league. Brian Robinson Jr, Jahmyr Gibbs and Jameson Williams aren't here to bail Bryce out with the huge windows coupled with slower and smaller defenders in college. They're winning with Detroit and Washington making other 1st round QBs look good. Alabama players from the 2022 and 2023 teams are winning with their teams. The media wanted you to believe Bryce, the tiny unicorn Heisman QB, made that Alabama team better when he was the one being carried with his limited game. The media doesn't want to be wrong on Bryce.

      Keep developing this draft class (XL, Coker, JT, Brooks, Wallace should get plenty of snaps as starters).  Build around DB on defense, make a decision on Horn.  Hunt, Icky, and Lewis are good for the next couple years.  Sell off anyone else that can get you decent value and keep drafting.
