Trai Turner hires new representation...

Given that Turner is the ONLY current starter on our Oline under contract for 2017, keeping him is really important.  We already have enough possible moving pieces on our Oline to worry about after this season (Kalil, Oher, Remmers eligible for UFA, Norwell eligible for RFA)...

Can't see any realistic scenario in which we wouldn't keep Turner.  The man has earned his pay, balling out on a very cheap rookie contract.

Hopefully some of these extensions get done this offseason...

Its not only that but he played at  a very high level, he is only 22, run 1st team, Cam struggles with pressure from inside,,etc !

    • Yep, the Panthers powers that be seem desperate to convince themselves he can clear the bare minimum bar of demanding a legit franchise QB contract. Canales seems to be laying the groundwork here of building the case that all of Bryce's shortcomings are still there and even more glaring than you may have thought while his strengths aren't nearly as strong as you had hoped and aren't near enough to make up for the lack of pure physical tools. When you have historically anomalous lack of measurables you need historically anomalous positive intangibles to make up for it. That was always issue with Bryce as a prospect. Like Parcells said when evaluating him, "he better walk on water". 
    • I'm honestly not sure how much "west coast" plays into it. There's a huge difference between Tucson, AZ and Spokane, WA where he spent the previous two decades of his career. Chapel Hill is significantly different than Spokane but way more similar to it than Tucson. You're talking about a pretty significant plane ride to get back home either way. He and his family would be flying private and direct so we're talking about a 3ish hour flight vs. a 5ish hour flight. That's basically a wash. It's not like he went from Gonzaga to another PNW program. Tucson is a dramatic departure from Washington state. Honestly a far bigger departure climatically and scenery wise than Chapel Hill would be.
