A bust? Barner a bust? A 6th rounder a bust? Wtf?!

Barner And gaffney are your two backs that compliment each other, who are going to replace the aweful contracts of double trouble. Stew and Williams are first out.

Gaffney and Barner could easily replace the production of double trouble. We should rid these contracts as soon as feasible because of that.

How can you call barner a bust when he had no chance to see the field?

If you're forced to pay guys millions more than they are worth, you should at least play them. I'm glad they sat barner. Gave him time to prepare mentally and physically for the NFL

well the 8 times Barner seen the field as a RB he looked like a child among men, Barner has no size to him and he showed why he was drafted in the 6th..

 

I had high hopes when we drafted Barner but he has shown nothing that says he is a NFL RB, I hope to eat crow on this. I thought he could be like Sproles but the only thing he has on him is 3 inches. Stewart was out for most of the year and Barner couldn't take that from him. 

 

Barner is gone or IR.

Williams has been our most consistent running back so far, though admittedly that isn't necessarily saying much considering the circumstances. Stewart hasn't proven he can even stay healthy yet, Barner has looked lost and can't hold onto the football, and Gaffney hasn't even taken a snap in the NFL yet. Unless Stewart/Barner/Gaffney go off and show out big in the preseason, Williams is not going anywhere. Plain and simple. I think some people are still sour about comments Deangelo has made, but that doesn't change the facts of the current situation with our roster.

    • I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.  
    • Thank god BigKat can't buy it because I'd be gone immediately 
    • Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
