Who's next in line for a contract extension?

[t96]

Since Norwell started his first game in '14, he's by far been our most reliable player. He should be a huge priority, over Turner in my opinion. We really need to lock up both though.

[AU-panther]

Kalil + Kalil + new contract for Norwell + new contract for Turner might = the highest paid offensive line in the league.

Top three olines for this year : $48m, $44m, $42m

Not sure if we end up allocated that much to one group. I could see one of our guards going elsewhere.

I actually thought we might end up drafting a guard.....maybe we did indirectly.

Turner and Norwell. Gotta keep that OL intact. If Butler keeps progressing Star is expendable.

Moton is a versatile oL who can play guard and tackle.

resigning TD is the least of my concerns since he has publicly stated that he will retire a Panther and not play for anyone else.

and i would say Star is on the top of Daves priority list to resign right now.because for starters if you have to replace Star with a nose tackle of his caliber in the draft then it would take more than likely at least a first round pick.on the other hand you can find quality guards in the second and third rounds of the draft.

so unfortunately it seems that Norwell is the odd man out here because i would keep Turner if i had to choose one or the other

i don't know though maybe Butler steps up this season and balls out making Star expenable.but i would still keep Star anyway in order to let my LB wreak havoc

Trai and Star are musts. I'm prepared to lose Norwell, but would be happy if we were able to keep him. Not worried about TD. I feel more than likely he'll be resigned, and I don't think his contract will be crippling.

Pretty much this. Trai is better and more versatile than Norwell, so he takes higher priority. Of course it would be great if both cam back at reasonable deals.

We need to get Shaq Thompson on the field

Bleeding Black and Blue is fine... Again, TD has grown to be my favorite Panther but the Carolina Panthers are in the profession to win an NFL Championship. He has to demonstrate that at his age he can still be a viable part of the 53 and that his contract is in line with his present and future production, nothing more than that. Straight business my man. There's a guy up in Massachusetts that runs his organizations like a business and has a lot of hardware to show for it

Yes, we know how much you love that hardware in your mouth.

Richardson paid TD to stand on the sidelines and hold crutches. When TD said it might be over, Richardson showed that he still believed in him. Thomas Davis will never wear another uniform. Unlike yourself.

Trai is going to cost a lot more than Norwell, while the performance gap between the two is small.

[BigCat]

Norwell will be gone (wishing he could stay), TD 2-year deal, Stah and Trai will be next with long term deals.

I like both of our guards, but there's really no point in extending both.  Finding solid guards isn't too difficult

Both Moton and Darryl Williams could play guard

[ncsfinest21]

TD will most likely get a 1 to 2 year deal done. Trai or Norwell will get franchised tagged. Star will be the odd man out with Butler there.

Quite interesting to read all the differing opinions on whether Trai or Norwell is better and also whether Butler and Star are interchangeable.  Huddle is all over the place on this one and I'm not even sure where I stand.
