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.

    • Think the "official time" put out was 4.48, but there were a lot of scouts there who of course all had difference times as it's all handed timed by them.  Think I saw it as low as 4.43 and as high as 4.62 or something, but in the end it's all basically the same speed because 40 yard dash is so pointless. Anyone who complains about his speed is just someone who wants a Chase/Jefferson/Nabers style #1 as opposed to an Evans style #1 who isn't going to beat you because of his speed but his other abilities. In the end, he's fast enough for a player his size and surprisingly quicker and more agile than people give him credit for too. The real problem is that Panthers fans can't get our past big WR failures out of their head, they hear "big WR" and automatically see a plodding KB or Jarrett in their minds and assume that's also T-Mac.
    • If you are buying Silver Club, 300 level, try and the buy ones that have the Lot 1 parking pass.  it is steps to the stadium Also, buy on the shade side my PSls used to be section 342, under the overhang.  I didnt care about sun or rain plenty of sites have interactive  maps that can show you   Just know, if they are opposite side of 342, the sun will beat on your head…endzones too.   if, you know for sure that you are going, and you need a hotel room, do it now  you can always cancel … remember, even if the panthers suck,  the national press follows them as do their fans.  Hotel rooms go fast for that game 
    • didn't he run like a 4.52?
