Jeff Howe and Joe Person confirmed that the Panthers want to keep Gilmore beyond just this season.

All indications are that they also want to keep Donte Jackson.

How?

Feels good to also finally have a cap guy in Sulaiman who knows wtf he is doing.  We are living in a dream right now.

Likely a 5th round comp pick. Because of his position and how long he's been in the league. I agree with everything else though. I do think they will try to resign both Donte and Stephon. 

I was going to point this out, but still, we'd be trading a 2023 6th round for a 2023 5th AND get 10 games (13 if you count playoffs!) out of a top-notch CB for cheap.

Your comment is confusing.

Obviously none of us here could have predicted this, but it is easy to see expected or predicted outcomes of this. 

Im saying in response to people that come on here and say: "hey, well there is no O linemen available for trade!"

Nobody knows this for sure on here as this information isnt announced to everybody so its not a reasonable response to the discussion.

Best Case Scenario: Gilmore returns to former self, resigns with Panthers

Worst Case Scenario: Gilmore plays out rest of year, 2023 6th round pick upgrades to 5th round comp pick

That's how I took it. I honestly think that had we known that Gilmore and (especially) Henderson had been available, FOR THIS PRICE, on draft day there is a much better chance of Slater being our pick.

as many four and five DB sets as snow uses in his system it's a great allocation of resources to keep three very good corners on the team 

 

3? I say, keep em all. If possible. CJ, and Jayce are here. DJ and SG are keepers. Bouye? Should be a keeper as well. That's my lineup. You  couldn't pry  it out of my cold dead hands.

    • Let’s be real, there’s no way the Bengals can trade him for less than first round value from an optics stand point.
    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
