Should we cut Shaq next year.

No, but sometimes people don't look their best when others are playing poorly like Whitehead.  I think we need to draft Kuechly's replacement. 

Shaq has played with great players and still looked mediocre

I’d like to, but no it would not be smart. You don’t replace someone you don’t have an answer for. We’ve done that over and over in the past, whether by cutting, not signing, or letting them walk and it doesn’t work out. Successful teams usually have a next man up before these kinds of moves but then again this concept might be beyond Hurney.

He may make it to next year, but he's 100% gone after that because of that cap number.  Wouldn't hurt my feelings if he's gone after this season though. I mean honestly, he's made...1 play this year? I don't remember hearing his name much at all.  He's maybe the 4th or 5th best player on THIS defense and will be making 14-16 million a year soon? Lol

    • So we cut him if we don't give him the option?  I'm pretty sure there are players who didn't get the 5th-year option that played year four of their rookie contracts with their draft team.
    • I didn't say do nothing if we don't draft one in the 1st and I"m not counting on a FA to magically become a franchise QB. But signing a FA to be our starter for the year and then re-address the next offseason would be FAR better than reaching on the wrong QB in the 1st this offseason. Feeling we HAVE to find our long term solution just because we need a new QB is how we got into this mess.  We thought Two Gloves would be at worst an average level QB for a few years, that didn't happen, so we went out and traded for Darnold.  That didn't work so we went out and traded for Baker, that didn't work so we went out and traded up to get Bryce. Our last 4 QB moves were all trying to force a solution, none of them worked out, and we're still trying to find Cam's replacement all these years later.  We'd just have been better off spending a year or two building up the rest of the team and going year to year on FA QB's while doing so.  I get it, it will be frustrating to deal with, but then when you find that actual long term solution, they plug right into an already built out roster and you're ready to contend immediately.
    • Great win, should be 3-0 but I'll take 2-1. LaMelo is an MVP caliber player, period.   This is looking like an incredible draft so far. Sion James looking like the exact type of role player that all contending teams need to have, absolute steal in the 2nd. Kalk is a work in progress and I question how much upside he has but he's already been a considerable upgrade at C for us compared to the last several years (outside of healthy Mark which of course was rare).   Really seems like new ownership/front office has change the culture here significantly. Every guy looks bought in now.
