REPORT: No movement in Panthers’ talks w/ Taylor Moton

Absolutely nobody "thinks" that Taylor "wants to sign three separate tags".

Even two is a stretch. He would have to have an agent advising him worse than whoever was representing Josh Norman in 2016. If Carolina can't get him to play left and they are keen on publicly questioning his value in comparison to his peers they are only hurting themselves in this process.

He was tagged twice but bolted in free agency to the Vikings where he got a big 3 year deal. 

Thought they reached the end for tagging. He completely played the system/game the right way, hot super rich as a result too. Funny I always thought was in the Teddy group far as QB talent, but I seen he was 5th in TDs since joining the viking.....waaay higher than I thought.

What are the odds that maybe Coach Rhule and Scott Fitterer don’t think Moton is worth the money he’s asking for and Brady Christensen is the long term plan at RT? I’m not saying I agree with this but does anyone else think this is a possibility?

Heard a few minutes of Polian tonight on Sirius NFL radio.  Said...1)nothing gets done without a deadline and expects contracts to go down to the wire and also...2)with the tags being so high today....agents are advising their clients to take the tag if they are not getting what they want.  Player taking the risk of course.  If it goes that way not too concerned.

I have no problem whatsoever with 3.

Norman's agent didn't understand easily Jerry Richardson could devolve into a fit of pique, unfortunate situation.  

I've seen no public comments whatsoever from the Panthers questioning Moton in any way, nothing improper going on that would hurt  their negotiating position.

If Moton is going to switch to LT seems to me he would want to play under the tag...

...if he proves he can do it there's a bigger pot of dough at the end of that particular rainbow.

Unless he wants that kind of money now, which would explain why there is no deal yet…

Deadline is 4pm today.

Mind you, even if they do get a deal done by then it might not be announced immediately. Sometimes the announcement comes a little later in the day.

I am still betting on him signing something.  Damn that is a huge gamble when you are leaving 60+ million on the table.

    • Kon is a damn stud but it’s not any individual player’s team. All of the “big 3” are incredibly and equally important IMO. And LaMelo makes Kon way better (look at his shooting splits with LaMelo on the floor vs without. Also Moose and even Miles are important cogs. Honestly think we’re 1 piece away from being legit top contenders if the young guys continue to develop the next year or two. I trust this FO to be patient to find that piece within the next 2-3 years and not force anything. Plenty of time and even without adding anyone we have the pieces in place overall already to compete with any team. 
    • We lost 2 very close and winnable games against top teams in the league while missing 3 critical players despite 2 of our top 3 players shooting unusually terribly. Still split the 4 games that Moose and Miles were suspended, winning the most important one vs the Hawks. This ain’t yo mama’s Hornets man. Hopefully Coby can go soon but even if not Moose and Miles are huge additions for our starting lineup and bench rotations. Schedule is pretty tough after these next 4 but I think we’ll take care of business the next 4 to get to .500 then finish slightly above .500 after that to get a 7 or 8 seed. Keep it rolling boys. Also Kon is having an insanely historic rookie season as a shooter. Like truly can’t believe my eyes watching this kid level of historic. Man what a fuging home run of a draft pick and exactly what this team needed to take that next step forward. He’s gonna shatter the rookie 3 point and franchise 3 point records. Has a real chance to be the 2nd best 3 point shooter ever or dare I say even get to Curry’s level (as a pure shooter, Curry obviously has way more to his game that has made him a GOAT).
    • I hear you but yeah like you say, above average. His numbers were good. You’d think it would be a no brainer. Anyhow… I guess the new staff is also fine with him walking?    I hope if we sign him there isn’t some secret issue of his that led to him not being valued.
