Nah. We need to draft a guy still. Roy is a backup, Kerr is a journeyman that will need to get replaced eventually. Still are gonna need 2-3 DT's in the next two offseasons.

To me Roy is a young version of Kerr. Its close to only one should stay.

WTF is wrong with you? KK was meh in 2018 and missed most of the last two years. He looked like poo in the time he played this year. He got easily moved out of the way.

We cannot get rid of his $11M in dead cap. Do not pull a Marty and make it worse like he did with the restructuring. He did that and decided to keep Short and look what happened.

Listen, there’s a 10x bigger chance he’s lost for the season yet again than he regains his stellar play at 32 after two missed seasons due to his shoulder.

I just don’t get this line of thinking. The D got better after he got hurt. Kerr played better than Short yet here we have another terrible thought to keep pushing money down the drain. Take the $11M cap hit we can’t change because it’s money already paid to Short. Stop giving him new money that will now be added to the cap for play not better than minimum salary guys. We already lost $13M more in 2020, don’t compound it giving him another $20M more.

Take your hat off and I’ll put the baseball bat to the side of your head. Kerr was paid $1.5M and will get $1.5M this year and you honestly think Short should get 10x that spread over 4 years? GD it, you deserve the bat to your head. Hey, guys let’s spend $20M on Short so we can’t afford to resign Chinn and Brown. MF.

If Short is on this team in 2021, I’ll become a Jags fan just to root on Lawrence.

Nice throat punch. Its more spit balling and putting it on the forum. I knew theres a huge push back on keeping KK. Its just a way to keep KK a panther at a fair rate, especially if it was important to him. 6 million is nothing for a starting DT with his resume. I already stated 0% chance, firing up the forum folks. Without any dead cap, I think 6 million is a good deal for all. Smart move is post june cut......but he could even lower base some and still do a deal like I stated....heeeehe )

Well they are both relatively cheap. Obviously the rookie deal is better.

Thats me, its a toss of the same coin. One is better currently, but the is other is younger and more years. Before Kerr got convid, he was looking like a legit starter/top-rotation player. Hes a great locker guy, hes popular among his peers. Plus I like to have a few of those types- happy, hard-working, earned everything types on the roster. 

I like Roy, hes on the same path as kerr imo. Its a tad redundant with two that play the same spot. I still want a legit starting DT next to brown. Who knows Roy could show up to camp ready for that role and force the panthers to start him. Roy plays hurt, Rhule and me love that trait.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
