Panthers and WR Robby Anderson have agreed to a 2-year, $29.5 million extension, per source.

[Icege]

Can likely clear up $7M ~ $12M in the offseason, which would keep the cap a little closer to what it looked like going into next season. The team looks like it's going in with the roster that it has for this season and next, with the option to reboot afterwards.

I like that it also means that if Sam stays, he's still got Robby. If Sam goes, whomever takes over is going to have incredible weapons, a strong defense, and hopefully a competent OL. The team has this season and next to find answers outside of Moton & Christensen (Tyler Linderbaum pls).

2023 will also be the year to get out of Shaq's contract which puts the current projected available cap according to Spotrac at... $162M  Will have a lot of the current young guys under contract as well... Strap in for the ride y'all

DJ is a 15 million but he’ll end up getting in the 20’s because that’s the best in the business rate. 

No way he’s worth that

What do you think he would go for? 

Golladay and Robinson types are currently setting the bar present day at about 18 million.  Allen and Cooper are at 20.

Absolutely love Linderbaum, but there are some relatively cheap and solid free agent centers in say Austin Corbett, Bradley Bozeman, James Daniels, Scott Quessenberry and Ted Kerras who are all young and fit our bill as well. IMO its a great LT class and its way cheaper to pay a C then a LT. I would lean signing a center and drafting a tackle, but Linderbaum is pretty generational at center. I just think the value is stronger to go LT in a very strong class.

So you think DJ and Robby are the same tier WR? 

I would say he would walk then if Carolina viewed it is as such.  The market for him is clearly being set by others and he can get it.   I’d tell him not to sign here if I was in his camp.  

If Sam can throw it downfield DJ willl have a great year.  If Darnold can’t he will do what he has done the last two.  Either way, someone I think will pay him at least what Golladay can get + the yearly inflated bump added on.

He is going to get 20 million at the least. The cap will go way up though!

DJ is good…not elite 

he disappears in crunch time and doesn’t get open enough 

love to see him prove me wrong this year

Bridgewater made it tough to judge DJ last season. The two of them just never had chemistry.

Low-key hoping we spread it out so much this year he kinda has take a little less. With how many options we have its possible his stats decline. I think we keep him no matter what though. You def want to sign him before Ridley who is the Falcons ONLY option besides Pitts.

Not sure Nuk Hopkins would look elite with a busted Cam, Allen and Teddy throwing at him for 3 consecutive seasons.

Rhule said today Sam has more chemistry with Dj than Robby.... Interesting! Our weapons are insane.
