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.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
