Rhule needs a Mac Jones-type who can look halfway decent immediately, and Pickett’s the only quarterback in the draft remotely in that category.

I was a fan of trying to trade back a few and picking up Jones or Slater. Jones isn't the most athletic, but he's better than average, which is better than what we've had in 3 years.

Jones would not have had success with the Panthers last season like he did with NE.  Our leaky OL would have exposed his lack of athleticism.  But him on the roster with fixing the OL this draft would have worked.   We'd then have all the pieces for a decent offense.

I agree but I don't think tepper has lost any money on the Panthers.  Plenty of network money and other sales keep coming in.

Not to mention ~62,000 season-tickets/seats for which PSL owners ante up for in advance every season, year-in, year-out, for decades...

...regardless of what the the on-field product looks like.

That is a fact.  I almost was one of them.  Had to raise 2 grandkids about that time so I couldn't lay the cash down.

PSL owners are trapped. There is no resale value to them anymore. Owners are stuck with a bad investment. They try to sell, who is going to buy them? How low would they have to sell them to actually get a buyer? 

They are stuck and have no choice but to hold on and wait until there are better days. My condolences to the whole lot of you.

I get Tepper wants to run his own show but I’m still surprised he didn’t bring on at least one guy that is NFL savvy to ease his transition into ownership and hiring the right people.

It didn’t even need to be a full time hire or committee. Just a guide, NFL shaman

Jones would've looked like Jimmy Clausen if he played for the Panthers last year.

      Icky Contract Extension

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      Is there any real statistical evidence of this beyond anecdotal things like washed vets signing with the Chiefs or Pats every once in a while?  it doesn't really hold up.  Everyone gets paid in FA.  Everyone gets paid on 2nd contracts.  Its just how it is.  Do you think Icky would make less in FA than he would with a Panther extension?  Is that what's being implied?

      Icky Contract Extension

      Fitts fuged up the Burns contract by not taking the trade. He lost his leverage at that point. That level offer was for a top 3 complete edge rusher which Burns never was. It should never have been a debate. Take the Rams offer if we weren't going to pay Burns that type of contract.  Icky should get paid. Where it will get interesting is when/if Bryce demands an extension after this year. If he follows the trend of 1st round QBs drafted and immediately starting for their team, and still with them, end of 3rd year is extension time. If Bryce demands his 45-50m per season and Morgan/Tepper pays it, I see Icky starting for someone else and us looking to the draft or FA market for a new LT.

      Ickey has earned a good new contract obviously. We do need to draft a RT maybe in the 2026 draft.
