I really want us to re-sign Short- if it doesn't happen I trust Gettleman, but you gotta believe that part of the reason we let Josh ride off was to save money for Short + Trai + Norwell 

This is what originally eased my fears about letting Josh walk too.

With Big Vern in the mix, he will be entering his 3rd season which is typically when they really bloom.  If Short is here for an average of 7.5mil over the next 2 years (assuming we tag) your scenario, while cold, could be closer to reality than most would care to admit.

If Vern develops into a top quality DT, and KK continues to play a Pro Bowl level, then the writing is on the wall. The hope is that KK might accept a bit less than his sky high market value, but I doubt it.

I am 99.999999999% positive that there will be no deal done this year.  Gman will ride KK for 19 more games and then decide what to do.  Point is, expect him to play this out.

What you did there...I see it.

Overpaying now is stupid. The point of extending early is to get a reasonable contract. If he wants the type of money that a player gets on the free market he has to replicate and take the risk and wait  That's not speaking bad of Short just the fact of the matter.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
