We need to extend Allen.

He can’t even be a restricted free agent until 2022. We own his exclusive rights for the next 3 seasons and do so at the rookie minimum. Absolutely zero reason to extend him and waste cap space. For free agency purposes, he is basically a rookie.

He can’t be unrestricted until 2023, but we would definitely need to extend him before he becomes an RFA if he keeps it up. All we can do is put a 1st round tender on him and if he is a franchise QB some would happily give him a huge deal and give up the 1st to us. We could match obviously but then you are letting another team dictate the terms of the deal and it could be designed to make it prohibitive for us to match it.

If he turns out to be the real deal, we could have quite the sudden salary cap boon on our hands.  We could really build one hell of a team to surround Allen with if we were able to spend 30 million a year elsewhere for the next 2 or 3 seasons.

I was looking for this and had saw it yesterday. We basically have him through 2022 of ya consider one year of a franchise tag of needed.

Wait wait wait. Weinke had a fantastic game?

Given the state of the rest of the team at the time I would count his one win the only candidate as his "best" game as a pro.  Fantastic compared to everyone else that game.  Shiniest turd sort of way.

Such a pendulum shift on Allen in just a few weeks.

We go from "Allen is so bad, Hurney should be fired for not trading for a back up QB, and Rivera should be fired for saying he is fine with our back up situation"

To after one game "Allen is the future of the Panthers, get rid of Cam".  I feel like at this point there is still more bad tape on Allen than good.  Lets calm down and see what happens these next few weeks.

I'm saying it right now. No matter what happens with the Texans he needs to be here 3 more years. I love Cam but I love this team more and paying a now injury prone QB doesn't make sense. We could actually save money and use it to sure up our Oline. Letting Allen walk into FA would be a huge mistake for us. 

The only thing that's going to be extended is Cam's large penis during insertion tonight with his GF

Every game he plays well makes his price go up

This is what I’m saying. Not saying throw a lot of money at him but if you can get him on a cheap deal now might as well. He’s at least a serviceable backup.

      A look at the team after the draft and udfa signings...

      By KillerKat · Posted

      My projection. I think at WR its time to go with youth. This means Moore should be the odd man out. Horn can return both punts and kicks and Tremayne is a better WR than Moore. XL gets one more year to prove himself, although I could see a trade in the future which would mean Moore could stay. For OL, I would like us to bring back Brady if we can. The RBs, Trevor can return both punts and kicks too. With the uncertainty of Brooks and Dillon, its hard to choose either one. I think the team would like for Brooks to have a breakout season to clear any uncertainty that he deserves a spot. For now, I have them both even and on the team. DL looks solid as well as OLB. Watch out for the UDFA of Aaron Hall and Isaiah Smith at OLB. They look promising and could knock someone off the team. ILB is still the biggest weakness on the team. We need to upgrade that any means necessary. CB is strong and Im praying to all the Gods that Wheatley beats out Scott at FS.  OFFENSE: WR: Tetairoa McMillan - *Chris Brazzell II* - Brycen Tremayne TE: Tommy Tremble - James Mitchell LT: #Rasheed Walker# - *Monroe Freeling* LG: Damien Lewis C- #Luke Fortner# - *Sam Hecht* RG: Robert Hunt - #Saahdiq Charles# RT: Taylor Moton - #Stone Forsythe# TE: Ja`Tavion Sanders - Mitchell Evans WR: Xavier Legette - Jalen Coker - Jimmy Horn Jr. QB: Bryce Young - #Kenny Pickett# RB: Chuba Hubbard - Trevor Etienne - #AJ Dillon# - Jonathon Brooks DEFENSE: LE: Tershawn Wharton - Bobby Brown III  NT: *Lee Hunter* - Cam Jackson RE: Derrick Brown - LaBryan Ray LOLB: Nic Scourton - Patrick Jones II  LILB: Trevin Wallace - Bam Martin-Scott - *Jackson Kuwatch* RILB: #Devin Lloyd# - Claudin Cherrelus  ROLB: #Jaelen Phillips# - Princely Umanmielen LCB: Jaycee Horn - Akayleb Evans RCB: Mike Jackson - *Will Lee III* - Chau Smith-Wade SS: Tre`von Moehrig - Lathan Ransom FS:  Nick Scott - *Zakee Wheatley* - Demani Richardson  SPECIAL TEAMS: K/KO: Ryan Fitzgerald P/H: Sam Martin KR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. PR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. LS: J.J.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      His contract is guaranteed.  Legette is just not where he needs to be mentally.  Not fully invested, it seems.

      Literally like Hill. He's not QB1 material (now or ever), but if we can turn him into a H-back and use him like  Swiss army knife, that's his ticket to make the roster.  H-back/emergency QB.  I wonder how good his hands are?  If they are at least above average by NFL standards then we can line him up in the backfield, in the slot, split out wide and of course, in the Wildcat.
