Is it too early to lock up Horn to a long term deal?

[WarPanthers89]

The answer is NO. Pay the man and pray he stays healthy. We have all seen what happens when you let proven talent walk in FA or by trade. Lock him into a long term deal, and try to find a decent pair to go along with him. He sets the tone for the defense and is hands down a top tier talent in the league. We cannot afford to miss out on his talent in the future, pull out the fat check and move on with life.

Give Horn the long term contract he deserves. The Panthers can ill afford to mess around lose a talent him.

[rayzor]

lock him up.

Didn't Kaye or person say they were already in talks?

[Memphis]

Not so sure.

For me he is too grabby and a bit hit and miss in his coverage. Also scared of the injury bug surrounding him. We still have the 5th year option...

I don't think it's too early to negotiate an extension but I would be taking a hard look at how the NFL refs are calling the PI and holding calls on CBs for the rest of the season and any rumors of off season rule changes. As was mentioned earlier, Horn is a bit handsy and if they're calling that type of play with more frequency overall, it may be something that factors in to whether it's a good idea to keep him at a higher tier contract price tag.

I'm personally not making a physical corner a cornerstone of my defense in today's NFL.

SMH. Don't think too hard about this. Buddy has played up to his 1st round billing and has stayed healthy. Pay the man. SIMPLE.

I searched and I cannot find it anywhere but pretty sure he said it on mac and bone or maybe his podcast after the chubba deal

thanks man, thats it

We aren't concerned about his ability to stay on the field?

You have to extend him, but hopefully there are some snap count considerations. He's had a rough time being on the field to get what he's probably looking for.
