Jeremy Fowler: still a chance Panthers are able to re-sign Curtis Samuel

yeah I agree some team is going to give him a huge deal in the next few days. 

IDK. So hard to know what the market is going to look like. If it is anything like the normal free agency period, if he doesn't get signed in the first week or so, he probably isn't going to get a big deal.

Samuel is going to get paid period. Also he's not our star player either so that's why you get a good GM who can draft another guy to replace him. CMC, Moore, and Anderson is still a pretty formidable group to say the least and I for one would love to keep Moore and Anderson. Hopefully we get a TE to add an extra layer to that group of great WRs.

We're hearing most of the top receivers -- Kenny Golladay, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Corey Davis -- will test free agency, but a few have a chance to re-sign with their respective teams: Nelson Agholor with Las Vegas and Curtis Samuel with Carolina.

With DJ Moore and Robby Anderson hitting free agency in 2022, the Panthers could look to secure more receiver help now. (If they don't keep Samuel, look out for Jacksonville, where new coach Urban Meyer knows him from their Ohio State days.)

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
