All contracts have been inflated this offseason. Look at what Mike Glennon is getting. You guys are needlessly freaking out.

Yeah, now that's a crazy contract

We had 3 straight division titles and a SB appearance recently. That unraveled in part because our LT got injured for the year early on and our line went to poo. 

That LT was picked up from another team after being labeled a bust when he was supposed to be a franchise LT and then shined on our squad.

We all literally just watched this scenario unfold in front of us the last couple of years and people are still freaking out?

Get a grip people.

Whitworth is 8 years older. Kalil turns 28 this season and Whitworth will be 36 this season. If Kalil plays out all 5 years, he will end up being 2 years younger than Whitworth is today.

You're valuing age over talent. Just like the age gap with the two there's a huge talent gap as well. 

At the end of the day I want the better player regardless of age in this situation. Whitworth would've given us 2 solid years where as Kalil is a complete unknown but his last 4 seasons don't give us much hope. 

Whitworth would've bought us 2 more years to find someone. 2 years from now is a long time. At some point you need to focus on the present especially while we have Cam.

Even if it's structured to cut bait after 2 years that's still 2 more years of Cam getting killed. He'll be 30 by then. This franchise will never learn. We get blessed with a generational talent and flush it down the drain.

"You bitch when he spends and bitch when he doesn't" posters dont realize how trash Kalil is. He's worse than Remmers plus he's injury-prone

Posters don't realize how trash Oher is. He's worse than Bell plus he's injury-prone.

-Literally half the Huddle a few years back and Oher did great for us.

Its actually refreshing to see Gettleman spend money. Kinda like dating a hot chick out of your league for a few months after dating 6-7s your whole life, but eventually getting dumped. At least you see its possible. lol

I love it how the same people panic year after year, move after move.

Pretty much.

Yesterday: "Why won't we spend money?!"

Today: "OMG! Why are we spending so much money?!

[CarolinaSamurai]

I love this. I don't care how many are freaking out. This is a good deal in today's NFL with a lot of upside. 

[outlaw4]

Really, Gettleman? This might work out in the end but man, my gut feeling is telling me this is a mistake.

[AndrewLaskoski]

My guess is the first 3 years are fully guaranteed. So $25 million over 3 years is $8.33 million a year and in the market today that is as good of a gamble as we're going get with the Panthers management.

Great signing Gettleman. Thanks for spending money and addressing a big need. (this isn't sarcasm)

That is all.
