I’m curious to know your thoughts on what amount we should fork over to keep DJ a Panther. What’s a good avg $/year for him to you?

 

Ive included the top ~24 highest avg &/year WRs. I really think we screwed up our position for negotiating with DJ based on R. Anderson’s contract.

No problem paying him as long as we cut Anderson after this season (only 3.8 million dead cap after that) and let our rookie WR’s actually play and step up. We can sign a cheap vet to play with them and call it a wrap. DJ deserves to get paid, and we can afford it once Anderson is gone and DJ’s new contract kicks in at that point

Prob 16-18 mil per year.  Structure an extension to basically eliminate the 11 million cap hit in 2022

This is the range I was thinking. With the cap expected to increase, I wouldn’t hate going that high for him, but I think he deserves more around the 15 mil per range. Basically, he should be the one with RA’s contract.

Robby’s contract was short term though with an easy out after the first year.  It was actually a really good contract.  Now Robby certainly underperformed last season - but it was hard to see that coming based on his performance last year.  Hopefully he gets it together.  If not, it will be cheap to cut him

Per attempt to Robbie and DJ they had one if the highest drop rates in the league. It’s impossible to evaluate if that’s because the QB sucked or bc they have shaky hands. Maybe both.

My gut feeling is that DJ is probably worth top 10 money. The question is do you give him that deal if you don’t have a QB to throw it to him? Not having a top 10-15 QB just completely screws the ability to evaluate anyone appropriately.

This is totally what I was thinking. I don’t really know what DJ truly is, idk if he is a #1 imo. Don’t know because he’s always had below average qbs. I would have never extended Robby and would have look for a better wr to pair with him.

He puts up the aggregate reception and yards numbers, but it feels like he's invisible on critical downs in games.  I don't know if it's a bad coaching, bad QB or a combination of both.  He has a very low TD total over his career so far.

Yeah I just don’t think he will ever be a top 5 wr. Hell idk if he will ever be top 10. I wouldn’t pay him a big contract imo, if he wants to leave so be it.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.

      The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
