samuel had a good season in this offense but for the amount of money he will be requesting is not worth the investment . samuel is a # 3 receiver and its not worth to pay him and lose dj moore the next season . The wr position is one of the easiest positions to find a solid play maker , just take a look at the steelers if you notice a trend they draft a receiver almost every year in rounds 3 to 6 and one always ends up being solid . 

let samuel walk , draft a receiver in the 3-6 round well be fine letting another team over spend on him , its just not worth spending the capital when we can focus that money on the defense or offensive line .

Have you followed the panthers before DJ Moore and Samuel?  We had nobodies filling WR rolls basically since 03.  Steve Smith was the anchor until 2013, after that its been years and years of JAGS

And yet we went to the Super Bowl with these nobodies.

Samuel gets the cheers and creates highlights we clearly see on TV,  but Moton is rock solid--we just do not see it.  Having said that, we are going to have to cut some players to keep both. However, with the reduced cap, there will be less money to spend in free agency and more players released to get below the new cap figure--I assume that is still the case.  So I am not sure the market will permit Samuel, a #3 WR to make too many demands as he may have been able to make last year. 

Let's see how this plays out.

Exactly...I like Curtis but Moton has to be the priority. I also think that folks are discounting the fact a lot of those passes/touches that went to Curtis normally go to McCaffery. If we can keep him great but not scared to let him walk and take the comp pick

      Defensive Tackle: The Need that Shall Not be Named

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Great post! Now that I think on it, I think D line might be our biggest need. We are one player away from having a potential disastrous defensive line. Brown and Wharton struggled last year and Wharton has really only been a rotational player that specializes in one thing. Can we count on him being a full time starter? Jackson is unproven. Do you want a starting defensive line of Wharton, Brown and Jackson? I don’t want to risk it.   I honestly don’t think linebacker is that big of a need. If Rozeboom ends up coming back then why get a LB?   games are won in the trenches and I would honestly prefer us drafting an offensive or defensive linemen over any other position in the first. The prospect you mentioned seems like a good prospect who has had some good production as well. Only problem is defensive line is a position that can take time for a player to develop. Will whoever we draft be ready this season ?

      Have they though? I'll give you KC with Kelce, but c'mon, they weren't winning those SB's because they had a great TE, it was a combination of Mahomes and some great defenses.  Will also give you the 49ers and Ravens with Kittle and Andrews, but even then, both have missed time with injuries the last few years. After those 3 teams, the best teams of the last 2-3 years have not had elite TEs The Eagles had Goedert, he's good, not great. The Bills have also had good but not great TE's The Rams have had average TEs and still consistently run 2 and 3 TE sets with them and still win. The Bucs have been winning the South without a great TE The Lions' Laporta is more a name than a highly productive TE. The Texans have had a serviceable TE in Shultz, but nothing too amazing. Some of the best TE's in the league the last few years have been on some of the worst teams.  McBride, Bowers, Warren, Njoku, even Pitts this past year. A true elite TE is absolutely a weapon in today's game, but I think the best teams use that money elsewhere and find serviceable TE play, usually through a committee where each TE brings something else to the table.
