Robby Anderson: The Panthers are who I want to be with for my future

Robby Anderson put together the most productive season of his career for the Panthers in 2020 and now he’s set to be with the team through 2023.

Anderson signed a two-year extension with a reported $20 million guaranteed on Tuesday. He said after the day’s practice that the Panthers have been a right fit for him.

“This is ideally [who] I want to be with for my future,” Anderson said, via Alaina Getzenberg of the Charlotte Observer. “Since I came here it felt like I was finally in my dream.

“I feel the focus of the team, and what we’re working toward, I want to have that security to know I’m here for the long run, so I can commit to it fully. And the coaches, the organization, the city, I just genuinely love being here.”

Anderson had plenty of familiarity with the team’s staff, having played under head coach Matt Rhule and his position coach Frisman Jackson at Temple. Plus Anderson and quarterback Sam Darnold have built-in chemistry from their shared time with the Jets.

“Everything across the board was pretty much all check marks, not just the money part of it,” Anderson said.

Anderson was one of two Carolina receivers to eclipse 1,000 yards receiving last year, the other being D.J. Moore. Anderson set new career highs with 95 receptions and 1,096 yards. He had three touchdown receptions in 2020.

Okay, I like that. If this was coming out while the negotiations were ongoing, I'd be more cynical and assume he was just trying to get the fans on his side as a negotiating ploy. The classic, "I'd really like to stay here, but at the end of the day, it's a business decision," thing. i.e. "Blame the front office if I don't stick around, not me."  I think there's at lease an ounce of sincerity if this is coming the day after the deal is locked in.

Hope he has a great year.

There is no source. I keep hounding these dumb fugs for sources and no one has ever produced one. As I said in the signing thread, this was a conspiracy invented out of thin air that our lower life forms latched on to. 

I get it when the media rumor mill starts swirling but with the Robby not wanting here schtick I have never seen from anyone but social media trolls and Huddlers. I'd love to see a single credible source that said he was unhappy here or planning to leave. I'm all ears.

I’ll have to dig way back (huddle vets, not panther vets. My bad). And it wasn’t necessarily said outright, but it’s when the reports were Robby wanted out. It was shortly after the trade for Darnold. There were a few “it looks like Robby wants out of Carolina. I bet I know why.” and “Robby has already had to play with Darnold. I don’t blame he for wanting to go somewhere else” comments being littered at that time.

I meant huddle vets not Panther vets lol. But I can’t edit.

    • I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
    • I did, but again we're aware of the practice in college of inflating height/weight as well as what is considered normal and his freshman weight tells a lot. There was a recent Raw Room episode where at one point they were discussing putting on their "big boy weight" when they go to the pros. It's common for guys to have to slap on 20lbs over the summer, but King Dunlap mentioned having to put on 30 and how much of a toll that took on his body. That makes the idea of putting on 50 at the college level even harder to believe. I've got experience with cutting weight and that type of drop sounds just awful... and that's even if doing it healthy and not just turning yourself into a piece of human jerky. Having to add 50? Noooooo thank yoooou. I can understand wanting to take Scourton at face value, but we didn't take Bryce at face value either (and for good reason!). Give the recently posted videos a shot. I watched the one you linked even though I've already seen it, so why not extend the same courtesy? I think you'll find yourself getting more excited about his Purdue tape than you will being irritated by what you believe are false narratives being pushed. 😄
    • I think Ottawa and Edmonton force game 7.  Although I feel stronger about Toronto failing than I do about Edmonton getting it done again.
