24 years old w bad QB, elite traits, 3 1000 yard seasons. That's exactly the type of player you invest in, especially if you plan on acquiring a better QB in the future. Can't help but shake my head at some of these hot takes. Also, it ain't your money so stop being stingy, Tepper is rich af

Yeah, some of the takes in here are ass.  DJ consistently produces with shitty QB play.  Could his touchdown count be higher?  Sure.  But he’s a playmaker and I’d love to retain him.  Reminds me of Brandin Cooks in that he always puts up numbers but is always overlooked

No one was arging he was Steve Smith. have a good night bc you are very, very unserious

Im not unserious, but I dont see how paying a guy 21 mil per season is going to help us when it hasnt helped us with him playing on a rookie contract.

If we overpaid CMC, that is a crazy overpay for Moore.

I mean he's basically exactly what you want with the 25th pick of the draft. He's exceeded expectations and when the QB play was even mediocre this year he was eating and beating goof corners. Yes, he's not perfect. Drops happen but are also flukes, Chris Godwin went on a weird streak if dropping everything in sight last season and they Bucs still won the chip and he's STILL elite. This board is weird when it comes to contract. No use being cheap with good players, unless you wanna see DJ leave us for New England or Los Angeles Chargers and become a "true number one" elsewhere. (Even though he's a true number one here already.)

I think 19 mil is a good bet. If he wasn’t still so young and let’s say a 26-28 yo getting a second contract, then I’d have more pause. 

Thing is, he may have leverage, could easily decline whatever we throw at him and make great money in a better situation.

Ppl on this board think that undervalueing great talent is a personality, it's annoying

Moore belong somewhere in that 13-15m range. Robby has no business being that high, he only makes that much because of Rhule.

That’s probably an accurate value for his production, but no way he’ll go for that cheap after Anderson’s deal.

Which of the WRs on that list making 17m or more a year is DJ better than?

IF we pay more than 18 a year it is an overpay. And that is with hopes he will get a little better. 

If any team pays him more than that it is going to be a dumpster fire team so good luck to him. No top team is paying him that much.

    • Praying for you all and your family. Hopefully your daughter will get her life back together and some much needed help.
    • Here’s a summary of the JJ and Luke podcast transcript. Opening / Bryce Young Fifth-Year Option     •    JJ: Breaking news — Panthers picked up Bryce Young’s fifth-year option at $25.9M, guaranteed, coming in 2027. Combined with his 2025 salary of ~$6M, that’s $31M over two years — called it a “no-brainer.”     •    Luke: Enthusiastic about the move. Highlighted Bryce’s improving TD/INT ratios (11/10 → 15/9 → 23/11) and the value of entering year three with Dave Canales. Noted $25M is a bargain relative to the $60M top of market. Luke’s Personal Update — Charlotte Christian Football     •    Luke: Working with Charlotte Christian school football program, which hired a new head coach. Coaches include Greg Olsen, Luke, and Greg’s dad Chris Olsen (a New Jersey State coaching Hall of Famer).     •    JJ: Jokingly quipped that Charlotte Christian’s coaching staff is “the world’s greatest” — a Fox analyst, a Hall of Famer, and the best Panthers RB ever — all coaching middle school football.     •    Luke: Praised Chris Olsen’s deep football knowledge spanning decades and his ability to connect with kids. Round 1, Pick 19 — Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia     •    JJ: Panthers were on the clock and submitted their pick almost immediately — a sign of confidence and preparation. Freeling is 6’7”, 320 lbs, played in the SEC in a pro-style system.     •    Luke: Loved the pick. Emphasized you can never have too many quality offensive linemen. Noted Freeling’s size, athleticism, and arm length as key traits. Said the pick also reflects team’s philosophy of drafting great people, not just great players.     •    JJ: Noted reporter Darren Gantt compared Freeling favorably to Jordan Gross — bigger, heavier, and faster — as a potential franchise left tackle.     •    Luke: Pointed out that young players like Freeling still have physical development ahead of them, comparing the trajectory to Christian McCaffrey’s growth from age 20 onward. Round 2, Pick 49 — Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech     •    JJ: Panthers traded up from 51 to 49 (pick swap with Minnesota) to grab Hunter. Played audio from Panthers area scout Kaden McLuhan, who scouted Hunter.     •    Scout Kaden McLuhan (audio): Said Hunter’s size is immediately striking, and that everyone around him spoke glowingly about his character, energy, and love for the game.     •    Luke: Praised Hunter as a massive (6’3”, 320 lbs, ~34” arms) two-gap nose tackle who fits perfectly in the Evero defense. Compared his prospect profile to Akiem Hicks. Said having Derek Brown, Bobby Brown, Derrick Brown, Terson Wharton, and now Hunter creates varied body types that stress offensive linemen.     •    JJ: Noted Hunter ranked third among all prospects in run-stuff rate and sixth in interior pass-rush win rate — addressing a perception that he couldn’t rush the passer. Rounds 3–7 Highlights     •    Luke: Highlighted WR Brazle (3rd round, 6’4”, 437 speed, 1,000+ yards at Tennessee) as the vertical threat the offense needed. Also praised OL Sam Heck (5th round) as a technically sound player whose “short arms” caused him to fall but who has proven himself.     •    Luke: Mentioned CB Will Lee (6’1”, 33” arms) fits the Panthers’ DB prototype — big, long corners.     •    Luke: Praised S/LB hybrid Zaki Wheatley (5th round, 6’3”) as a big nickel similar to Trayvon Merek.     •    Luke: Excited about the linebacker competition between Devin Lloyd, Trevvin Wallace, and Claudin Cherless.     •    JJ: Noted Panthers had the #1 “steal/overreach” rating in the entire draft — drafting players lower than consensus big boards projected. Around the League     •    Luke: Admitted being “a little jealous” that the Miami Dolphins drafted LB Jacob Rodriguez (Luke’s favorite LB in the draft). Has personal connections to Miami’s coaching staff (Jeff Hafley, DC Shawn Dugen — a childhood teammate).     •    Luke: Also noted Miami’s selection of OT/G Kaden Proctor out of Alabama, who will likely move to guard. League Trends — Bigger Tight Ends / 12 & 13 Personnel     •    JJ: Observed the NFL saw its highest run rate in ~11 years (~52%) and a notable pivot toward big blocking tight ends in this draft.     •    Luke: Explained the cyclical nature of NFL offense/defense evolution — as defenses get smaller to match spread offenses, teams counter with bigger personnel (12/13 formations), which then forces defenses to get bigger at the nickel/“big nickel” spot. Called it an ongoing arms race.
