Pretty fair prediction for the Panthers. Not buying the Browns hype at all. Smells like the 2011 Eagles. Bengals and Lions will not be 3-13 by a long shot. Worst team I think will be the Broncos who are on the verge of an entire organizational collapse.

Otherwise nothing too outrageous.

I want to angry about this, I really do.

But, not to sound like a broken record here, Cam's shoulder - is it healthy? The O-line, will it gel? New defensive scheme and a youthful injection of pass rushers learning how to fit in.

A lot of ifs to hang your hat on. Seems like a lot of writers are unsure and hedging their bets with mid-level predictions.

Personally, I think we'll struggle at first and then catch fire and finish 10-6. (But hoping for another 15-1 season!)

Ah, yes. 

That might be the most generic piece of garbage I’ve ever seen. Actually that’s not true, it mirrors about 90% of what I see these days.

EDITOR: “F IT, copy and Paste the 5-11 BUCS graphic from the last 11 years.” There’s the science that goes into that. 

No insight. Just a bunch a random guesses. Good times.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
