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

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By CRA · Posted

      I mean, poster also said Young or Mahomes, it would have made no difference.  If there was way to actually test that hypothetical, I would sell every belonging I have and wager that Mahomes would indeed yield different results.  Mahomes automatically changes the D coverages.  He automatically changes the threats.  He attacks and threatens a field different vastly different.   We have seen good QBs and great QBs play behind horrific OLs in a single season....and they don't default into being the worst team in the NFL.  Frank Reich was old, stubborn and not creative enough to deal with an anomaly QB like Bryce.  The best QB in the NFL wouldn't be handicapping Frank, they would be enhancing Frank.  Starting week 1, Frank didn't even trust Bryce with basics....Frank gave him I what I feel comfortable with you being able to do offense.  Which took throws and plays off the table because Bryce couldn't do early on what a bad vet in Dalton could.  Mahomes would not yield the same results.

      All I have to say to this really, is it sounds nice and downgrades Stroud to make Young look better is more like what this take does. Look at the WR numbers the year before and then the year with Stroud. He made them better, not the other way around. That’s my opinion. I appreciate you designating that it was yours. Many state these things as facts.

      but what if.....and here me out....the pro Bryce Young stuff was coming from people under Fitterer.  You know, the people who are employed to feed him that input.  And they happen to all still be employed here.  when Rhule was fired I desperately wanted Fitterer fired.  It set things up for Fitterer to be the sacrificial lamb the next time things went poorly....every time we move on from a disaster, we are retaining a heavy % of the folks who helped bring the disaster we are "moving on from".  Everyone argued Fitterer probably could be great and it was all Rhule.  We are just repeating the same stuff to a degree IMO.   Panthers needed a clean slate post Rhule era.  Needed another post Frank era.  Things were just too bad or too dysfunctional IMO to be salvaging so much.   We keep failing to do that.
