we may be close to signing Robby

[Captain Morgan]

The Panthers locked up one of Sam Darnold’s offensive-line protectors over the summer and are on the verge of keeping one of his favorite targets around a while, as well.

The team is deep in talks on a multiyear extension for wide receiver Robby Anderson and could finalize the deal in the next several days, a league source told The Athletic.

I really hope we resign DJ first.. After next year Robbie may be expendable

Interesting. Most seemed to think Fitterer was referring to DJ but sounds like maybe it was Anderson.

We’ve got a poo ton of cap space moving forward ( maybe the first time in team history). Might as well lock up all the talented players that we can. Robby is definitely a plus.

article says this does not preclude us signing DJ.  I'm guess it fits in with Terrace's rookie deal, which is doable and fuggin smart.  3 WR at starter level for 4 more years.  Hope it's true.

I agree..having all 3 is a plus.. but from the glimpse I seen we'll have about 24 mil entering next season.. I can imagine it's going to cost us around 16 or more for DJ alone..extending burns should be next up and I can see that being in the same range.. I can't see spending 10 -12 mill a yr on Robbie when we still don't have a left tackle, franchise qb, and the 1 of the highest paid rbs in the league.. I could go on with 2nd cb if we don't resign Donte

It’s a fantastic idea. You lock him down now, load it heavy this year and next then pay heavy with DJ after his 5th year. You then have a young dynamic WR group that is set for the next 4 years minimum with Marshall and the other rookies.

[Jared Patterson]

I think Donte is the other.

[WarPanthers89]

People forget how good we will be in cap after this year. If you extend him now and structure it right, we will have plenty of cap space for our young stars coming up in the future. I am extremely confident that we have sons one who is great managing the cap now along with a competent GM. We have been scared by Hurndog for too long and I believe it’s going to be refreshing to see what they do with our core in the future 

[Jared Patterson]

Hopefully we get Reddick/Jackson long term as well....

[WarPanthers89]

I don’t feel like this info is getting the attention it deserves. I am more excited about this than the pre season game tonight.

Exactly what I was thinking.

[Wolfcop]

We need both of them - they are both top WRs.
