You know, the players' union needs to soon realize that the majority of the new money is going to one position.

The Players' Union is in a tough bind if guys aren't willing to play out their rookie contracts.

The owners won't stand for that.

Exactly!! If the NFL  starts having to go the route of the NBA, then some major changes(extreme increase in cap space n etc) will have to come!!

I love these conversations you can see who will immediately shift to a "greedy players" take while overlooking the owners pulling in tens of billions annually which is only increasing btw. If the owners have a problem with other players not playing out contracts then they should stop overseeing record breaking deals for their own respective rosters that instantly raise contracts across the board for every other team.

He is only good when he is mobile.  When he was hurt last year and came back (not very mobile) he was not worth a crap.  Over time as we've seen with most mobile guys they lose that and they are not really effective anymore.  I am not sure he has the goods to be the stand in passer type.  I would not want to make a trade for him to come to Carolina.

I'm not yet convinced that Murray is worth that kind of money, especially after his playoff performance and his "I just wing it" comments.

To be fair Mahomes said similar and that he only learned how to read defenses three years ago

It's not the early 2000's anymore. Any QB that is healthy and a pro bowler will be getting a $40 mil deal, that's just how it is now. We make him the highest paid QB, he'll be out of the top 5 in two years and the deal looks good. If you want to win, you gotta play the game 

In the future there needs to be some kinda separate pool of money for QBs in the salary cap. Having one guy, no matter how good he is, take up damn near 25% of your cap is not a sustainable situation. Especially when guys like Carr are now getting 40 mil a year. Price is only going up dramatically moving forward.

I just want more threads like the Watson trade threads. We learned about Garry Cobb and egg penises. We laughed, cried and good times were had…

Some of the most good clean fun I’ve ever had on the internet. No bullshit

Good point.

Put another way, the Packers total-revenues (prior to any kind of expense) are approx. $375M and Whiny Aaron is going to clip $50,000,000 of that right off the top 🤑

Screw these whiny QB's... 🖕 ...STFU & show up & earn your damn pay 👊

Doesn't seem at all equitable 🧐

Is the collective mindset such that a bunch of Whiny Aaron's $50,000,000 should be subject to wealth distribution...?

Spend it for him11!

Wasn't his injury to his throwing shoulder? Mobile or not, seems that would be more the culprit than mobility?

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By PanthersGTI · Posted

      Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
