DJ Moore - what’s a good contract?

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.

    • They know within 15 mins.  Many moons ago skins drafted Heath Shuler at like 5th overall and Gus Frerotte in the late rounds. You know the plan, its Heaths team. Old OLman stink said within 15 minutes they knew Gus was the better QB.  I didn't need 15 or players on the same field, I just knew like Bill said "he better walk on water", which he hasn't. I do blame tepper mainly for it, he spend the greater part of 2 year telling everyone Watson would be a panther......and fail....but a great fail...then Stanford turned panthers down.....tepper was beyond pissed and wanted a QB. He forced the trade and picked BY......and now by .....some grace of the gods formed a team with 4 QBs of no hope...... insane given the other roster spots.....
    • He definitely knows nothing about the Panthers, but there’s no denying he’s a pioneer in this whole draft grading and mock draft field.
    • I actually say wait five years since that's long enough to know if a player  became something worthy enough for a long term contract, whether with their original team or someone else. Therefore... 1 (8): Jaycee Horn - Has been questions about his durability but when he's healthy, he plays at a high level. Should we have drafted Pat Surtain or Micah Parsons, however? Arguably could’ve done better, but he's still here so that's a W pick. 2 (59): Terrance Marshall - Yet another classic Panther WR bust. I don’t recall seeing anything in his college tape that made me excited about drafting him in the first place.  3 (70): Brady Christensen - Proved to be a versatile player on the O-line.  As of now, we haven’t signed him back and I feel that we should. That's enough to say he was a solid draft pick. 3 (83): Tommy Tremble - Hasn't emerged as a consistent productive player, but he's had his moments here and there. We can certainly do better, but we haven’t found that guy yet so he still has some utility. W because he's not Ian Thomas. 4 (126): Chuba Hubbard - Surprise of the draft. It took time, but he's now our lead back.  5 (158): Daviyon Nixon - Had a half a sack with us and... that's it. I think I liked what I saw but it didn't pan out. 5 (166): Keith Taylor - Another guy I liked but only stuck around for two years. Played for a few other teams but nothing really to note. 6 (193): Deonte Brown - I really thought this guy was going to be a steal. He might’ve been the guy that had weight issues and never really got a handle on it. 6 (204): Shi Smith - He scored double the touchdowns that Marshall did in his short time here; it was two. Yeah, the Panthers wide receiver history is rather bleak. 6 (222): Thomas Fletcher - I had to look it up but he was a long snapper. JJ Jansen is immortal, so it was a wasted draft pick. 7 (232): Phil Hoskins - Actually recorded a sack here in his short career. Wish I could remember it.   Surprisingly not a bad draft when you have two good/great starters and a JAG that's still here, plus a good rotation guy most would like to keep.
