I read some more about James. I didn’t realize he rolled over his $10M guaranteed salary with his opt out in 2020. So not only did he not make any money last year, he may have forfeited that $10M guarantee. He’s also got a $5M guarantee in 2022 now but only for injury so that’s likely gone too. Damn, shouldn’t have opted out.

Yeah, that sucks.

Unique situation and all, but damn.

No one will cry for him with $17M paid out for 3 games in 2 years, but losing out on $15M guaranteed because he opted out is tough. The $5M guaranteed money for 2022 was originally guaranteed as of 3/21 of this year.

No idea what the Broncos will do but it wouldn’t shock me if they cut him and save $15M. Since he was a surprise opt out, he may not get much sympathy especially since he’s been a huge bust for them so far.

I remember him being a guy a lot of us wanted the year he was drafted.

I know quite a Few people don’t believe he will be on the roster this year.

 

I’ve been the biggest critic since he even came out.  I hated the pick,  didn’t even think he was worth a 2nd rd pick.

but I’m not writing him of just yet.

IF he can get healthy, it may be interesting.  One of his biggest knocks even at Ole Miss was he just was flat out lazy.  The dude has all the talent,  but has always just had the keys handed to him. He was the top kid coming out of Hs and immediately was just handed the starting spot.  He was still a high draft pick and came to a team with literally no LT, and yet again pretty much just handed the keys.

he has never had to fight for anything.

now this dude is on the verge of being cut.  This is going to show who he really is.  He comes out looking terrible and gets cut.  He may not get another shot in this league.

let’s see how he does with the fire under his azz before we automatically assume he’s as good as gone.

In training camp, he was getting straight up run over by Burns. Beat straight up. HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Hopefully Christiansen doesn't suffer the same fate, or Cam Erving, who will be the starter.

I feel pretty comfortable saying that Christensen will get run over by Brian Burns, several times.

We're talking about a rookie facing an establish, dominant NFL player. Of course that's going to happen.

You know who else that happened to some years back though?

A kid named Jordan Gross when he was facing a fellow named Julius Peppers.

Gross turned out okay.

Other than going to a Utah based college, I am confused why people keep comparing Christensen to Gross. Jordan had an outstanding college career, became a top 10 pick and was the consensus top OL in the 2003 draft.

Christensen has some decent potential but we shouldn't be confusing him for arguably the best offensive lineman to ever play for this franchise.

If he is half of what Gross was, that was still a good pick.

To be clear, I wasn't necessarily comparing Christensen to Gross.

Just mentioning that even as great as Jordan was, Julius Peppers ate his lunch when he was just starting.

That'll happen with Christensen and Burns too, but it shouldn't cause anyone concern.

The best part of the draft this past weekend for me is that fact that Hurndog got totally exposed for being a shitty GM. 

 

I remember a few folks on here still defending him until the bitter end.

Was anyone actually happy when he got brought back? I don’t remember being happy, but just being relieved Gettleman was gone.

    • Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.
    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
    • You do know the biggest military base in the US is located just an hour from Raleigh in Fort Bragg right? Military families are family oriented. A hour drive to games is nothing compared to traveling 3 hours to Charlotte.   Cmon man there is nothing happening in Western Carolina other than Charlotte. I only go west for outdoor activities and some nature/mountain views.
