With Brown & Chinn going into their second years, I can see why.

Bridgewater isn't long for these parts and those dudes are the team leaders.

Who's surprisingly not in there is Shaq Thompson.  He should have assumed the role of the leader of our defense last season and clearly did not.

Are you the least bit surprises?  I'm not.  Shaq was never going to be Luke or TD's heir apparent no matter how much Hurney wished it.

I'm not but it's as much shade, maybe even more than the TB.  The writing is on the wall for Bridgewater for the world to see, he is done here.  Buuuut Shaq was given the clear chance to step up and given a nice fat contract after years of production.  He's actually quite a solid player but just not a leader for this team.

He should be getting a decent offer from us, anything less is stupid. I really don't put as much stock in Robby Anderson as everyone else is, he's a 50% completion rate WR up until he was shortened in the passing game with check down teddy. If Moore was to go down who do we really have left at WR so far? Anderson, Zylstra and Cooper?

Heck, DJ is losing out in the Anderson conversation too, remember he still needs to be re-signed.  It's like Robbie is a lock to get a new deal (for some odd reason) and Curtis...to a lesser extent Moore, are expendable.

His contract money isn't for a 'wallflower leader' and just 'good' production.

To be fair, you can't level that criticism at Robby and not do the same with Curtis.  Because pre-TB5, they both had about the same catch %.  Both of them jumped up in catch % this year.  Someone is going to see that and overpay Curtis.

Personally, I'd rather have a 6' 3" true outside receiver than a 5' 11" slot guy.  I love Curtis and what he brings to the offense, but slot guys are not that hard to find.  Our problem historically is that all we seem to find is slot guys.  Then we try to push them outside and they fail.  Rinse repeat.

    • Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though. 
    • 13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • Because this DL is completely reliant on Brown being available and being a stud. Without him we were the worst D in history. The Wharton signing last year reeked of desperation. He just isn't a great fit for us schematically and I think we panicked a little bit when we missed out on Milton Williams who would have been a great fit.
