How can you give a guy a 72 million dollar contract and pay him 34 million the first year. Looks like they would learn something

from the Redskins and Hainsworth deal. That's paying him half the money the first year don't make sense!

Oh wwell hope JR understands I sure don't!!!!

When you're the worst team in the league, you tend to overpay the talent you still have. CJ was willing to goto ATL but the money kept him here. He was the top FA Dlineman that year. ATL ended up with Ray "Can't rush the passer" Edwards to a similar lucrative contract with less performance.

A little comparison:

.

The Arizona Cardinals have signed defensive end Calais Campbell to a five-year contract through 2016, the team's website reported Thursday. According to NFL Network's Jason La Canfora, Campbell will make $55 million, with $36 million due the first three years of the deal.

The 2008 second-round pick out of the University of Miami started 46 of his last 48 games and has 159 tackles, 18 passes defended and 21 sacks in his career, including eight in 2011.

CJ:

7/29/2011: Signed a six-year, $76 million contract. The deal contains $32 million guaranteed, including a $30 million signing bonus. 2012: $4.75 million, 2013: $6.75 million, 2014: $8.75 million, 2015: $9.75 million, 2016: $10.75 million, 2017: Free Agent

CJ's contract isn't frontloaded, it's actually the opposite. His cap hit gets larger and larger year after year.

Personally I'd like to see some of the Panther players making news for being the best production wise like Jared Allen or JPP rather than only making news for being the highest paid.

CJ plays the run better than JPP, and its true Allen is better but he also makes more.

jared allen's deal with minnesota was the biggest contract for a defensive player ever at the time.

i've seen some people throw his deal around as an argument against charles johnson's contract because the total value of allen's was actually a little less than johnson's. the context is pretty different for the two. allen's cap hit is also going to be over $14 million this year. while it's true that CJ's contract is backloaded i can't see him making it to the end of his current deal without a restructure.

    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either, QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
