I haven't heard or seen anything. Training camp starts Tuesday, and haven't heard anything about Corral signing a rookie contract! So Corral has until the time of the day of training camp or he'd have to sit out of training camp until he signs his rookie contract. So has anyone heard of rumors or anything on his rookie deal?

Sportrac has his projected contract at $5m over 4 years....He will probably get time vs. Sam Howell of the Commanders during the first preseason game...Cannot believe Howell was not taken until round 5--behind 4th rounder Bailey Zappe. 

I personally think that both Corral and Howell have upside and could be some of the drafts best steals when we look back in a few years.

They were my top two QBs this draft, and that was for their upside. I think they will surprise.

Ridder signed a couple days ago and Malik just signed this morning, they were all holding out for more guaranteed money

I don't believe that we know what the hold up was. Do they really have the power to hold franchises' feet to the fire? Not really. Sometimes it's simply the offset language in the contract. It doesn't have to be about "more money", just the guarantees.

Glad we do not have to stress over rookie contracts any longer. I remember this like it was just a few years ago...

Tshimanga Biakabutuka ended his 27-day holdout Friday, arriving in Charlotte with a bundle of money and a lot of work waiting for him.

Biakabutuka signed a seven-year deal worth $12.653 million to play for the Carolina Panthers. He will not play tonight when the Panthers take on the Buffalo Bills in Ericsson Stadium, and his availability for the season-opener is also in question.The 22-year-old running back admitted he has a lot of catching up to do before he can even think about playing in the NFL.

``It's been tough, but I'm happy to be here as a Panther,' an unsmiling Biakabutuka said. ``The negotiations are over now.'

As recently as a couple of days ago, it looked as if the rookie would never play in Charlotte. Biakabutuka held out through a bitter negotiation process during which barbs were lobbed between the Panthers and the rookie's agent, Carl Poston. The name-calling continued through Wednesday night, ending only after the two sides agreed to a truce.

      What?!?!?! Chark's 1,000 yard season was 4 years before he played for us and he only had 525 yards in 15 games as our #1 WR.  Dude has 3,100 yards in 7 seasons, he's the literal definition of a JAG and you think he is better than half our current WR room? T-Mac is literally already better than Chark was at his peak, which again, was years before he ever even put on a Panthers uniform, and there is a real argument to be made that XL and Coker were both better as rookies than Chark was for us in his one season here.

      Im glad we're starting low. It's nonsensical to put us at 28 IMHO based on objective things IMHO (I think 21-24) is far more appropriate but whatever. Washington was at the bottom last year FWIW.  In 2003, Sports Illustrated said our best chance to win the division was to transfer to the ACC. In 2015, everyone wrote us off as a team that snuck into the playoffs with a losing record in 2014 and lost our best WR in TC (Kelvin Benjamin). All these videos are fodder for conversation, but this prediction has no more validity than saying the Panthers are making the SB bc we're starting the season against the Jaguars again. If Bryce plays like he did down the stretch we will end up the season just fine. This roster is much better than it has been the last 2 seasons. No one knows who any season will ultimately end up, but this team is finally being built in the right way, and the idea that this roster can't compete this year is as insane as being it was when we were gaslit in 2023 that we were a rookie QB from winning the division with that roster.
