WOW!!

For the 1st time ever the Panthers seem to have a wealth of depth at the Cornerback position... They are fully stacked with talented CB at all phases in their career..

We got Atleast 5 or 6 guys you can see starting next year.. So how do you guys want this to play out??  Who do you want to resign who do you want keep??

The core (youth) is going to be Taylor, Horn, and Henderson and they should be cheap for a while.  We need to keep a veteran (Jackson or Gilmore) for a season or two, giving us 4 starting caliber CBs.  Remember, we have Hartsfield at Nickel, and he has been solid. 

This is a good question, and Jackson may want to break the bank with this contract.  What about Moore? (5th year) Reddick?  potentially Cam? Free agent OL?  We are going to lose a veteran CB or two---maybe all of them.

Re-sign Dante. Unless Gilmore wants to sign a very team friendly deal let him walk and take the comp pick. I don't consider that out of the question. He seems really happy to be here. Consider bringing Bouye back if he's cheap. Otherwise, I'm very comfortable with our guys.

Bouye 2 year deal

I think Bouye was a 2 year deal. Should have him next year.

I’m personally not a fan of extending DJax. He will be very expensive. Our pass rush is helping our CBs a lot and we have a stable full of CBs. I would spend that money on Reddick.

You have to see the big picture, that is for sure.  I agree. Everyone approaches this like a kid in a candy store, but Fitterererer has only so many nickels in his pocket.  Jax is injury prone and you would be paying him after his best year by far.  He is probably a future comp pick. 

Priorities

Reddick (DE/OLB)

Possibly Cam (QB)

Offensive line (RG, LT) Free agents

Middle Linebacker free agent

Free Safety free agent

Tight End free agent

We are blessed at CB, and the money should not go there, to be honest.  Henderson, Horn, Bouye, Taylor, Hartsfield (N)---with Pride, Thomas Oliver behind them--is a CB tandem most teams would covet.

Positional value dictates MLB isn that big of a need.. Carter at the right price is solid and all you need when surrounded by Good DT's  and LBS around him..

At this point I really think Jackson is gone. He's going to get paid and do we really want to tie up that money when Gilmore and Horn would probably be almost as good. I mean it just depends on the negotiations between Jackson and Gilmore but it's a good problem to have.

    • I really really like the developmental OTs to start grooming as Moton II.  (See previous post).  In other words, you are probably right--BC could be slowed and Nijman is not an answer.  We probably need a T in free agency.  the depth at Edge (especially after the SR Bowl) makes me think we draft an OT early. The OT I want (being realistic--after a trade back in round 1):  Monroe Freeling (UGA).  Forget the "big 4"--at least 3 will be gone.      
    • I agree.  He is solid. Another player I think is underrated and with good reason (I will explain): Monroe Freeling UGA Many have him the fifth-rated OT, but I would put him at 2 or 3.  Reason?  He played the season with an ankle issue and still kicked arse.  Here is a write-up that describes him--the injury, in my view, has him rated lower than if healthy all season. OT Monroe Freeling Georgia | 6'7" | 315 lbs Ht:6'7" Wt:315 lbs Class:JR Age:21 (25-Jul-2004) Monroe Freeling earned Second-Team All-SEC honors from league coaches for his performance during the 2025 season. Starting 12 of 13 games, he was twice named SEC Offensive Lineman of the Week after dominant showings against Auburn and Texas, notably grading out at 80 percent with zero pressures allowed against the Longhorns. During the 2025 season, he managed a nagging ankle injury suffered against Kentucky but remained a cornerstone for an offense that ranked first nationally in fourth-down conversions. As a draft prospect, he is recognized for his exceptional reach, mobility in pass protection, and "road-grading" power in the running game. While he has proven to be a reliable starter at left tackle, he also offers significant versatility having started at multiple positions along the line during the 2024 season. Here are some others I like (mostly developmental, but we have at least a year--we hope--at RT)   Your boy: The Panthers were looking at Barber at the SR Bowl practices, I believe.  Good run blocker--needs work in pass pro.  A RT candidate? Shelton would be an ideal swing OT. I really like Bowry.  Footwork is huge for a T, and we do a lot of zone blocking.  
    • We could/should re-sign BC and Nijman and draft 2.  There are 5 or 6 expected to go after round 1 that I really like.   Some are a year away, so I would give Moton an apprentice now.
