The Panthers national reach has now extended to the WSJ....

Too bad that this could be his last season here unless we franchise him.  CBs make more than LBs and I can't see paying him more than Luke.

why not?  Cornerbacks make more than LB's. DE's make more than LB's.  Luke is the highest paid MLB in the league, that has nothing to do with Norman's money.

One of the few times the franchise tag is a bargain.

This helps explain so much.. Should have been figured out by our local writers

i was always confused about some of the things Norman would say in an interview. Him channeling a character helps understand what the crap he was saying. 

I still think he is borderline crazy but using a character to get mentally focused for a challenge is great..

No different than Hardy's "Kraken" persona. Well those two are different but the CONCEPT is the same. Honestly I think that that is Hardy's problem in Dallas. He needed the strong locker room to keep him in line and help separate the two. Now his head is just all over the place and he isn't focused.

Everyone talks about Gettleman not wanting to pay DBs, but this is the first DB he's had that has come up for a new deal and actually deserved big money.  There's no history of Gettleman letting highly valued DBs just walk away.  The Steelers laid Mitchell way too much money and that's been proven both by his performance in Pittsburgh and Coleman's performance replacing him.  Gettleman knew he wasn't worth that $$$.  Finding a plug and play safety to fill in behind our front seven is a little different than finding a legit shutdown CB.  Kinda like truly elite QBs, there's only a handful of true shutdown CBs in the NFL and Norman is one of them.

      You're saying the same thing as I said.  Until Jordan becomes an active part of recruiting and funding, this school will continue to fall way behind.  But to say Michael Jordan or the Jordan brand doesn't matter anymore, which is what you said, is flat out wrong.

      Tony Pauline: Panthers will strongly consider Kenyon Sadiq if he’s there @19

      By Basbear · Posted

      I have not learnt my lesson and will always want Uber athletic profiles. Sorry, Im a whore about it.... Im not the right guy to defend Kenyon, I just have a understanding with this years draft, numbers, and panthers roster. He is more of "upside/project" and we are talking 19th pick here too.  I know about the years of all the mock drafts with TEs in them and I did want Pitts too.... Look I love the current TEs on the roster too, just this guy should be better than any of them at their best.  Right now I feel OT is the correct target, but panthers as a org are trying to win in 2026 than 2027. So tea leaves and all, Kenyon would help this year. You can even say flex him to slot for most of the snaps and think of tmac on smoke routes with Kenyon blocking for him. I just hate BY is the shooter..... warren, I would say he's the better prospect even without his rookie year, *but he was late bloomer like XL if Im right, plus age was 25ish?? Bears picked love above him, mainly cause of recs.  You can make a case that Kenyon is not a TE, but a moving weapon for offense that can be in the backfield, on the LOS, slot, and even X.... imean he's got XLs combine on some numbers.... He would be better to a offense mad scientist type...is that Dave? or is that bevell?? I think the Panthers should have him as a 19 pick, with others...

      That's one of the best power play games I've seen us have in a while.
