Let's Talk About Mario Addison

What are everyone's thoughts on him? He didn't start a game until the end of the year, but still led the team with 9.5 sacks. He will be 30 to start next season, but his last contract was 2 years, roughly $2.5MM two years ago. He isn't going to get a huge contract, but likely will be looking for enough years and money to retire with, maybe 3 years/$20MM? Maybe way more? NFL contracts for guys like him are hard to guess on. 

What would you guys feel is fair, and what would be a deal you were comfortable with for a guy that had a stellar year but was basically a situational pass rusher?

He may get somewhere around the $4-7mil a year, possibly more. I'm sure the Panthers will do anything feasible to keep him here. He's an important piece of this defense.

His snap count has also increased significantly - so Panthers are looking at him right now as more than just a pass specialist.

I'd assume they'll make sure he stays.

I absolutely love what we were seeing from Addison to close out the year.  It is like something finally clicked.  Rivera also spoke very highly of him.  Hopefully he signs for a 3/4 year deal worth about 4/5 mil per season.  I think he has earned it.

I'd be good with that. I hope there isn't some team that jacks the price up to like $7MM+

Emergence of Mario Addison also makes need of a DE less likely with Ealy on the opposite side we just need a VET like JPP to pair with CJ

I feel the same way about him as I did Ealy last offseason.  JAG.

If he will play for JAG money, give him JAG money.  If he wants money for being more than that, say buh-bye.  This is of course under the assumption a GM would then go replace the JAG with an equally talented JAG and not look on his practice squad and continue downgrading.

So apparently all but 15 or so DE/OLBs in the entire league are JAGs in your eyes?

so because I think Addison is a JAG that somehow means there are only 15 legit pass rushers in the NFL above JAG status?  How do you make that leap.

Addison/Ealy are the James Anderon's of DEs.

So what tier is Addison suddenly?  What is Ealy?

There were only 16 players in the league with more sacks than Addison, and I'm assuming most if not all played more snaps than Addison. So I'm not sure what that makes all the guys behind him in sack totals if not JAGs. You seem to think guys that can flirt with double digit sacks as a part time player just grow on trees apparently.

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      By strato · Posted

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
