I have more Faith in Scott Fitterer than Rhule.

Okay but we were all drooling over Rhule the past 2 offseasons as well and thought he was the greatest thing to happen to this organization. I need to see more before I trust anyone. I have yet to see it. I have seen some questionable trades. I like how he handled the draft last year so hopefully with a full offseason with Morgan he can make better decisions

I’ve been wondering how we could realistically get back into the 2nd or 3rd without trading down or mortgaging the future (a ton)

If we like a guy that will be more day 1 impact than a 4th, then maybe it’s the 2022 4th packaged with a 2023 3rd. Yeah it just keeps taking away future picks but that’s be a way to mid round 3 top-75 pick that may fall/we have pegged as a 2nd rounder type OL.

I mean, if it’s 2 OLs in the top 70ish and we still have our 2023 R1 & 2 then I think that’s the most I’d mortgage with a potential lame duck coach.

Then factor in 1  better FA lineman signing and that’s 3 brand new Ol additions for a 2023 QB to have back him.

Just need to suck it up and take the hit this year. Its gonna be a waste year anyways. We will be drafting at the top of the draft next year and the top of each round. Better not trade those picks. No point in trading away future assets though Rhule probably will because he probably doesnt have much of a future here anyways

  What possible gain was there from giving him that 19M guaranteed. Even if he was Tannehill and signs a 30M/year deal, the first year would have been even less than 19M. So why bet 19M on a scenario that wasn’t likely and had no benefit. Just another cop out. 

I see your point but I can understand's Fitts point also.

Yeah, can't say I have more faith for anyone in coaching/management/executive for the Panthers organization over another because its a mathematical fact that zero is neither greater than nor less than zero.

Rhule will be fighting for his job so I wouldn’t hold my breath on them mortgaging this team’s future.

I never drooled over Rhule at all. I was never crazy about the choice but I gave him a chance to show me what he could do, and in the last 33 regular season games, he has. He sucks on just about every level of NFL coaching metrics that exist.

   If you see my point, then it totally invalidates Fits answer. There was absolutely no financial upside to exercising the option. It’s like putting $20 on a hand of blackjack that if you win you get nothing. Lose and your 20 is gone. Would you play at that table?

He may have meant trading away some players for a 2nd or 3rd round pick. It may not be trading away future draft picks 👀

In this case, I do think DJ Moore should be considered. Pick up his 5th year and trade him to a contender who will re-sign him.

I actually think he’d be a pretty great fit in either Buffalo next to Diggs or KC along with Hill as that added for-sure weapon Mahomes has wanted.

    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.   
    • Highest amount of OL salary cap in the league too. The Chiefs are behind us at 2 but we are ahead of them by a cool $23 million. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/position/offensive-line/_/year/2026/table/active/sort/cap_total
