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.

Might be on to something. Kind of crowded here. He'll be the 3rd or 4th option now.

Yep. The combo of a QB who has not been good and a lot of other weapons to spread the ball around probably makes it unlikely for him to out up career year type numbers.

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.

    • Yea, I've never had high expectations since we drafted Bryce, so it's not like I'm just upset about not meeting them. I went into the season wanting to see player improvement and Canales' play design/calling improvement. I'm now to the point where I 99% only care about seeing individual player improvement.  The 1% is that I unfortunately have to still hope to see Canales play calling improvement, because that is kinda critical for the improvement of all our young offensive players. Offense is different from defense, you need good play designs and calls to show out.  On defense, everything can be a mess, but a great young player can still stand out and look great.  Our defense can be a mess but still have Horn locking down his guys on the outside, Scourton or Princely winning their pass rushing and pressuring the QB, DB swallowing up multiple blockers. But it's very hard for any QB, RB, WR, or TE to individually shine when the play design and calling is poo.
    • He actually said the Panthers are hanging on like a cat on a screen door lol
    • Oh, I'm not 100% expecting/demanding anything for next season. All that I want to see out of this season is progress, but I also understand that progress is not linear. I also understand that we've got a young team and coaching staff that are both developing. Expecting a winning record isn't reasonable at all, but I'll cheer for one all the same. I think that this is where some of the more angsty fans keep themselves in a perpetual cycle of misery: high expectations leads to low resiliency. Folks can have high standards, and the Panthers + Bryce have not met those standards, but some of those standards are completely realistic (like Bryce has to be built like Cam in order to be successful).
