I am happy we didn't fork over that kind of cash. definatly not worth it. All these teams going crazy this offseason are going to be seriously hurting when the cap is reinstated.

Also, all these people freaking out over us not resigning our young core talent..... We will once the NFL gets its poo together with the players union and what not. Have a little faith people. The panthers are a great organization.

cool story bro... lol

Depends on how the contract is structured. The signing bonus won't count against the cap since there isn't a cap. Remember that only the guaranteed money counts right now which is 24 million. The rest only counts if he is on the team. Paying what they did for a franchise wide receiver isn't out of the ball park. The only way they get hurt is if he has some off-field incidents or get suspended by the league which could be a possibility. Right now the franchise tag for receivers was around 8 million last year for an average of the top 5. He will get 10 million a year on average which is just about the going price these days. And he definitely is a top 5 receiver talent wise.

      Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.

      Dream big: Imagine this future and tell me how you feel

      I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.

      Forget about Bryce, Dave Canales is who we should be talking about.

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
