Do you think Josh Norman will be here next season?

So in listening to DG's presser, he said he doesn't like to negotiate deals during the season because it's a distraction. Josh Norman is an UFA agent next season. Greg got extended early in the season, Dickson and now Cam. Do you get the feeling the coaching staff think that our CB situation is a plug and play due to the front seven and are willing to let Josh Norman walk ala Captain Munnerlyn?

I think he'll sign an extension within the next few weeks to be honest. He wants to be here more than anything in the world, and I'm sure DG sees the value in signing him now and locking up a shutdown corner before he has a true breakout season. Just needed to get Cam done first and now TD and Josh and CJ will all fall into place.

Might not be until after the season that we re-sign him. He's had 1 good season and 2 bad ones so far. Consistency isn't on Josh's side. Gettleman may want another good year from Josh so he knows what we're renting. Josh's agent may want another good year to push the $$$ higher.

Better odds on TD and CJ getting extensions imo, but I'll be happy if it does happen

I think if he doesn't cost us a game with penalties and he continues this progress then he will be a Panther for years to come

My lord... I wish people would let that go.

 

How many games did he cost us last year with penalties??  0 

Time to move on bro.

 

I hope Norman retires a Panther.

I think after TD is extended, I'm not sure CJ will be extended, we will sign Norman to a decent deal.  We can use a lot of the cap space we have now and then with a TD extension to pay Norman more this year and lower amounts the next 2-3 years.  I see maybe giving him 3 years MAYBE 4, close to 4-6 million a year, so lets say 4 years 18 million.  He's had one good year, 1 middle of the road year and 1 what was he thinking half the time year.  So we sign him early and get our shutdown corner on the cheap, well cheaper.  KEEP POUNDING!!

I would think that Gettleman has touched base with all the agents for players coming up on free agency. If Norman wants to be here and has another solid year  he will get paid well. But if he wants Richard Marshall "Pay me like the best" type money he will have to go elsewhere. I like him so I hope he does well and stays.

I think the smart move is to sign Norman now but I'm not sure how the numbers work. With Cam's contract I don't know how much wiggle room we have for this season. I would love to sign Norman before the season starts. But it would be the 3rd biggest offseason deal. Cam and Olsen take 1 and 2.

I think it's 50/50.  If they re-sign him now, they get him for a better rate.  He's primed for a career year.  But he probably knows that, and might want to see what he can get elsewhere.  I hope he stays in Carolina because he's a talented player and finally seems to have his head on straight, but it's definitely not a sure thing.

      Dave Canales says Jalen Coker is our tentative #2 next season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      It will be really interesting to see how both sides handle this. I'm sure the team would love to get him signed to a 4 year deal based on his output so far and some potential factored in, i.e. something like a 4 year $30 million contract.  But I could see his agent telling him the best path is to take the one year offer, put up a big year next year and then really cash in. The team also has to keep in mind T-Mac's 2nd contract, which likely will happen after the 2027 season assuming he keeps improving as expected.  Even if we could get him on a budget 4 year deal for what he could become, the problem then becomes when he wants to re-negotiate in 2 years during the same summer we will extend T-Mac, and you don't want to spend that much on WRs in one offseason, just see the Bengals this last year. Taking everything into consideration, I'm thinking the 1 year deal and then getting him to sign a 4-5 year deal after hopefully say a 800ish yard season next year might be best for our cap situation and separate his and T-Mac's negotiation periods.

      And yet jax made it no further than we did, and its very possible the Pats don't either. I think it speaks more to the overall down year for the nfl as far as having great/dominant teams, every team this year has fatal flaws that can be exploited
