Bucky Brooks talks up Josh Norman


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Kinda sucks that he's gonna have a career year and get paid and the Panthers won't be able to be the ones writing the check.

 

We have more than enough cap space next year to retain him if we want to. But yeah, i'd much prefer to see us extend him to a reasonable deal this off-season.

Luke, TD, and Cam all need new deals too.

 

The reason that Gman will never spend big in FA is so that he can keep all or most of the young talent that we acquire through the draft. If he is just planning to let all of our top young talent leave through free agency, there would be no reason to shop at the dollar store in free agency

Talks with Davis are going on already. Davis himself recently described them as 'ongoing'.

Expect him to get his deal this offseason.

Ongoing talks are great of course, but mean little as far as the dollar amount will go.

Hopefully we can lock up all of them, but if not, I think it's pretty clear that Norman would be the odd man out.

CJ and Kalil are only going to get cheaper against the cap in the next couple of years as well. In G-Man you should trust.

    • Totally.  They had a guy starred on their boards that made it in trade worthy range. The risk was totally worth it.  Our case was the classic of a franchise not having a QB, do what you can to get one.  That often results being thrust into a bad situation, putting crazy pressure on 1 guy, and it becomes even worse when he's not that great.  But if we find ourselves just a few spots behind a guy we really like, I don't see a problem.   We just have to see how the season shakes out and enjoy this roller coaster.  It's not pretty at times but we somehow are 5-4 haha. If Bryce turns a page and cranks out some truly QB driven wins, then maybe we do consider just rolling with him and a Dalton replacement in 2026.  Someone like a Jarrett Stidham/Tanner McKee.   However, if he stays mostly the same (whether we fall apart or he struggles on/off but we still win some), I think you have to leave to door open for a QB in the draft.  Scout and meet with the top ones, see if any really fit what D&D want.  Maybe that guy could be Mateer.  Who knows
    • I lived in that area for a minute, and 2 decades of BB and Brady made them delusional.  They think everyone is the 2nd coming of Brady and they're just on a short coffee break til the next dynasty.
    • Bryce Young hasn't cleared 200 passing yards in a single game in that window.  Meanwhile, Rico Dowdle has put together the greatest 5 game stretch of rushing production in Panthers history.   And RBs have sort of been our thing, so there is ample competition.  This team hasn't been lead by Bryce Young in that stretch. Those wins are simplistically 3 things.  Schedule, Rico, and defense.
