I don’t see a situation where we can keep him. I haven’t looked up all the money and contracts yet, but bringing in a second year guy in Henderson, with Horn and the money we have to pay Gilmore. Doesn’t look good.

 

Also, I’m loving what Fitterer is doing but the one thing I don’t want to get lost on is not supporting the offense. I know he built the LOB, but I feel like the game has changed. It’s an offensive league now. I’m happy with the moves though, loving the attention to detail he’s bringing!

Let's worry about that at the end of the season. All sorts of developments or lack of them could happen between now and then.

Until then, DJax is a starter and with how he has played it's gonna be damned hard to drag him away from that job.

According to what I read, Gilmore is on the final year of his contract.  He could be a 1 year rental.  Or we might decide to keep him longer, but we might have some choices to make next year.  Hopefully, that is a good thing.

Gilmore is $5.8M this year and then a free agent. If he balls out and is looking for a massive deal I really do not see us re-signing him. In which case we would keep Jackson along with the 2 young guys and still be stacked at CB. If we did keep Gilmore past this year then yeah Jackson is unfortunately probably gone. Which would suck as I love the guy's play

None of the corners we have bringing in have been brought here to replace Jackson. They are where because our depth is thin and injuries. Jackson has been absolutely killing it in coverage and tackling and from what I have seen a great field leader too. We have money to spend next year and he will be worth returning at the right price. Just let the season and off season play out before jumping to conclusions about corners being brought in to replace corners other than Jackson.

      Joe Person: Panthers will let Cade Mays test the free agent market

      By PanthersNCSU · Posted

      If Mays has a market, which it seems he will, he's gone.  I think we bring back Nijman for too much money to be cautious at LT, Corbett comes back cheap since he's already said he wants to live in CLT, and Christensen eventually gets re-signed with the hopes he can be depth at some point.  Draft an OT, draft a C. The OL might be rough for stretches next year, but time to get some youth there to prepare for Bryce in 2027 or the next QB. I still think we compete for the division in 2026 and can go back to the playoffs unlike the oddsmakers in Vegas, but the *real* year is 2027 IMO. Either Bryce has proven it and he's the QB looking at his 2nd contract, or we have the ready-made team for the next rookie QB or Vet we trade for.

      The Panthers are going to have a lot more flexibility in free agency than it looks like at first glance. On paper, the cap space might seem tight, but there are several obvious restructure candidates that could easily free up significant room. Between converting base salaries into signing bonuses and spreading cap hits out over future years, Carolina could realistically clear $60–80 million in additional space if they wanted to be aggressive. That kind of flexibility means they’re not stuck. They can extend key young pieces, add help along the offensive line, upgrade the defense, and still be strategic about value signings. Letting Cade Mays test the market makes sense from a leverage standpoint. If he’s willing to come back on a team-friendly deal, great, continuity on the line matters. But if his market price climbs, the Panthers should absolutely explore upgrades. The point is, this front office isn’t boxed in. With cap maneuvering and smart structuring, they have the ability to be active players in free agency rather than sitting on the sidelines like we are used too.
