Seeing rumors on Twitter that we are going to trade or release Robby Anderson for some strange reason.  I see no benefit in a move like that, unless they trade him for something somewhat valuable.  We have Robby and Moore and then a lot of unproven young guys....would be dumb to get rid of him now.

If I understood the One Panther Place podcast discussion of this sources aren't confirming that speculation.

Why else would Robby want out? Why else would we want him out? He performed great relative to his contract last year.

To be clear, I don't buy the rumors. But IF they're true, that's the most likely reason.

Robby called Bridgewater the "icing on the cake" for coming to the Panthers...and some of his tweets/quotes were interpreted by some to throw some shade on Darnold, even though they look like they were on the jets.

He is up for the second year of a 2 year deal, had a career year last year and really gave us a discount because what Rhule did for him in college:

"...if it wasn’t for Coach Rhule making things happen, I wouldn’t be in the position that I’m in today....There wasn’t much he had to sell me on… I wanted to be a Panther.”

I can see a possible trade of Robby, he has good value as a 1000 yard reciever on the last year of his contract, if we have no intent on resigning him, and we can use his current value plus cheap last year of contract to levy into some serious value for us, then it makes sense.  That said, i dont believe we are going to move him, he'll be here this next season.

I think they saw the possibility of this coming which is why we are so stacked at WR with  David Moore, Marshal and Shi coming in.

I really really hope its just speculation.

We also have David Moore who had decent production in limited action last season.  I COULD see them wanting to roll with a youth movement on offense, by beginning the season starting both Moore's outside and giving Terrace time to mature before installing him at WR2 and moving D.Moore or Shi Smith into the slot.  IDK....but I sure as hell would not move Robby this year if I was running the team.

Its funny with 2 Moores... I was actually referring to David and realized it and edited it in time.   He just doesn't have Robby's speed.   Robby is tall and fast.... I really hope we keep him.

      Another Bryce breakdown

      By rayzor · Posted

      then we're stuck.  tbh, at this point i would settle for just making it interesting. forget winning a superbowl for now. just get a team that can win games consistently and hope that it's enough to get to the big dance.  we want superman. we aren't getting superman. we had him and we blew our chance with him.  find a way make it work and hope that we can with this little guy and quit wishing our lives away for the second coming of superman. it just ain't happening.

      Gonna have to strongly disagree with you here. Here are the last 20 Super Bowls - only two of them IMO had QB that didn't play like Superman to get them there/win the game/both, and that was Peyton in 2015 and Ben in 2005. Even then they both had that ability, Peyton was just old and Ben young. That said, there were flashes in the pan like Foles in 2017 and (to a lesser degree) Flacco in 2012. But even counting that, it's 4/20. 20% odds aren't good enough and Bryce was absolutely drafted at #1 to be a guy that elevates an entire team and plays like Superman. If he can't do that then it's a failed pick, full stop. Being a poor man's Teddy doesn't cut it for a #1 overall and that's true for any team, not just Carolina.

      the problem is if we're waiting for Cam v2, we're going to be waiting decades longer.  our best hope is that bryce is better than we all think he is and that canales is able to work some serious magic with him and the scheme to help him live up anywhere close to the potential we thought he had. he's a smart kid. we just have to be able to have a situation that allows him to use his smarts.  the truth with cam was that een he had to have a system tailored for his skillset coming into the league. the difference between him and luck (which was the debate in '09 when we thought luck was an option) was that with luck, he could be placed in any offense and it would work...hence the higher floor he had  than cam. cam, though, needed an offense that was built around him to reach his potential. he could have done alright in a more pro-style offense, but to reach his ceiling (which was seen by a lot of people as being higher than luck). i don't think having to have an offense tailored around what you can and can't do well is a problem for people who can develop around them...after they've truly identified what those can and can't items are. we didn't have that last year. i think we have that this year. we want a guy who can carry a team on his back, but those kind of guys are very rare. we don't need to spend our time trying  find that guy, because even when you have them there's no guarantee that they will be enough.  championships are won, quite often, by teams who learn to compensate for less than the greatest QB play. you have a great defense and can protect the ball while wearing out the other defense and you've got a chance.  we don't need Bryce to be superman (despite where we drafted him and what we paid to get him). we just need him to be able to run (manage) a good offense.
