He has one more year on his contract after this season ? Or is it 2 more with 5yr option ?

His third year, so we should (and will) use his fifth.

Thing is, TD wants an extension and to play longer and use up valuable snaps Shaq could use. That's the issue, and likely why we could be letting Shaq go if we don't ever figure out a way to use him full-time.

No way we let him walk. I would pay td very little for the next couple years if we extend him.  TD is a panther legend and still pretty good but shaq still has upside and I think he is already better. I think it depends more on the norwell and star contract situation. Kelvin better ball out this year or we should let him walk

Top 3....er maybe 5....well maybe 10 dumbest poo this franchise will do if that happens barring some great trade where we get something in return.

I love TD as a football player but sweet jesus how fuging dumb to spend #1 draft pick and find a good to great replacement only to sign his aging ass to en extension. Tis' the Hurney way though, I'd be more surprised if Hurney found the balls to let TD go,  no that it matters, luckily our meddling owner will not let it happen. We will have to just wait and see how that plays out and hope for the best.

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
