Fact is another team will pay him more. Would rather see if there is trade value than pay. We have much bigger holes. The draft is chalk full of WR talent all over the place.

Can't trade him now. And I don't see any other teams offering a lot. What has he shown that screams "big deal in FA?"

Didn’t say anyone would offer a lot. And I didn’t say anything about a big deal. All I said was another team would pay him more. 1. Because there are plenty of teams more desperate than the Panthers at WR and 2. The panthers have offensive weapons that already have what Samuel does, he is a commodity on this team. That is, granted, in if they plan to keep what they have if Moore/CMC/Anderson.

If no team offers a lot, we'll just keep him. We have the cap space and clearly see his value in this offense. No other player on the team right now can fill in Samuel's role. Sure, DJ or McC have similar abilities, but we're not going to use superstar players in a swiss army knife role. They are WR1 and RB1. Nobody else on the roster could do what Samuel does.

Regardless of what we think he’d have to be ok with a 3rd string wr salary, and see that no other team offers him more than that. Both in playing time and salary. But I believe a team will offer him more than that.

I would be all about resigning him but as I said I would not be about outbidding another team for him given our current holes and needs.

WR1? Ahem!

Here the thing. I have always believed samuel is a lot better than what we have him reduced to. A lot of people have him limited to a number 3.. but I think its possible he's better than Moore. He gets open more consistently and has been under utilized by bad coaching(Shula and ron) and limited offensive creativity. Not to mention qb play that hasn't been able to hit him in stride at what he does best. The deep ball.

      Dan Morgan interviews this week

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Another thread where the Huddle melts down over a Bryce comment.  "Conversations" and "Bryce Young has been signed to a new long-term contract" are still far away from being the gospel.  For a fanbase that has watched two top-3 drafted QBs come here, and us move on, only to see them elevate their play elsewhere, I find it comical. Bryce is flawed but this org is damned if you do and damned if you don't with BY9.  Why would our GM and HC say anything other than supportive about their QB1. Yes, he's extended, but I truly do not think if he goes out and has a repeat of the previous seasons, that he is here beyond 2027. They're giving him every opportunity and surrounding him with a ridiculous amount of assets on both sides of the ball. If he continues to pitch 110 yd/ game and cough up the ball while everyone else is busting their ass, no way Dan keeps him beyond the extension.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      Ooof, I was not a Proctor fan. I agree w/ a lot of smarter folks than me that he's more of a guard and think his weight fluctuation is going to be something to navigate. I liked Lomu a lot, but figured there would be more talented guys there at 19. I also wasn't big on bringing in a TE via the draft. If it's not a vet (Njoku) or a trade for Mayer or Kmet, I'd just as soon see what the youngsters have. No need cluttering the room with more of the same.

      Sam Darnold & Bryce Young are two very different Qbs ..just saying the last 25 years approximately 2/3 of ALL  first round Qb's  in the NFL were or are bust.so for everyone who makes it like a Sam Darnold you have two that don't make it or are a bust
