we had to do this. 

No we didn't.

Fair play to his agent, he's done exactly what I said people would do "beat everyone else's offer by 20% and I'll entertain my client playing for your dumpster fire franchise".

Got a B grade from WalterFootball, higher than I thought we'd get because of the money:

Panthers Panthers sign G Robert Hunt (5 years, $100 million): B Grade
Bryce Young was terrible during his rookie year, but his offensive line was a disaster. Young didn’t exactly get a fair shake in his rookie year, but it looks like the Panthers will be providing one for him in his second season, at least based on this move.

This is more money than I thought Robert Hunt would receive, but I get it. Hunt is a very good blocker when it comes to both pass protection and the running game. He’s a massive upgrade in the interior. The Panthers still have lots of work to do, but this was a nice first step.

so is morgan already backloading deals? how much did the von bell release free up? these were neck and neck on announcement. If he's legit, plug him in at left guard unless they're going to make him the center, but man, draft a center at 33, put this guy on the left, brady on the right, this can help a lot.

He's a rg

5 years, 63M guaranteed with 26 in a signing bonus means the contract is a lot more cap friendly than it initially appears. plenty of flexibility. the splashy 100M number is good for his agent to show to prospective clients. the cap number for the Panthers should be a lot easier to swallow.

The $63m guaranteed is the splashy number he can show to his prospective clients - that's more than Mayfield got.

People need to stop complaining about the money. We have to pay to play.

People act like the salary cap isn't 250 mill. Iit increases every year, and literally only 3 people on this team are worth being paid above average salaries. We'll be fine.

I don't think there is a fanbase in existence more concerned with the cap than ours.  So weird.  I swear this group would be upset if we "overpaid" Patrick Mahomes or Tom Brady.

Facts. I think a lot of these guys are aged under the Patriots run and still want to try and recreate that here without Tim Brady in a more competitive league.

      They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
