One thing that doesnt make sense to me is keeping more DBs for this Buffalo package. Yes, we like to run nickel, but shaq thompson gives us a lot of flexibility and more options, as rivera has said. I would think we would meed less DBs for this reason

​Colin Jones has looked outstanding in practices in addtion to being a special teams demon. We don't know how quickly Shaq will pick up the position.

So Trusnik does not make the team?  I thought he was a perfect fit to beef up special teams and depth at LB with starting experience.  From Rivera in March,

.....Panthers coach Ron Rivera says Trusnik is ''an experienced player who adds more competition to the linebacker position and has also been a special teams ace. I expect him to come in and be a leader.''

​Rivera has glowing remarks for every player when asked. I would't read much into it. 

Which LB would you release to keep Trusnik?

​I wouldn't off that list.  Would look at another position.   And I haven't seen Trusnik like you have, just found it curious.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
