The Carolina Panthers have  offered cornerback Alan Ball a one-year, $2 million contract, according to a league source.

Ball hasn’t agreed to terms yet, though, and is weighing the Panthers’ offer and his options with other NFL teams.

Ball would get a $1 million signing bonus and a $950,000 base salary with a $50,000 workout bonus.

Ball has up to $500,000 in playtime incentives.

    • I mentioned this in another thread but i'll restate it here. Keeping a wait and watch approach and passing on the 5th year option kinda makes sense like obliquely, but in practice neither the team or the player wants it. The player doesn't want to risk injury when he could have at least another year locked up, and the team doesn't want to risk the player blowing up in their fourth year and holding the team over the barrel. If you're the QB and you're playing that well you obviously test the free agent market, and you'd probably be bitter about it as well.  modern first round qb contracts are essentially 3 year deals with the option of an additional 2 to put downward pressure on contract extensions. You either pick up the 5th year, extend with a new contract, or move on.  just sitting tight on the fourth year isn't a practical choice for any of the parties. 
    • The point was Miles Sanders wasn't just a guy in Philly. He was at least as good as Chuba has been in Carolina. 
    • I have not been impressed with our pass blocking since at least 2022. Still remember watching Darnold live against the Seahawks when we were dominating them in the run game and we still allowed far too much pressure on him regardless. It has not gotten much better since. In fairness to this year's unit, they have been hit by injuries. Oftentimes, even a mediocre overall unit is better than a stacked one if the former stays healthy throughout the entire season. Constant shuffling only means a much greater likelihood someone will blow their assignment and that's all it takes for a sack or worse.
