The amount of Money on the table for a successful QB is enormously higher than the peanuts they are squabbling over now.  It makes NO SENSE to miss one minute of camp because the odds are already against the player.

I’m not worried about it - but Matt should be.  If he isn’t in Spartanburg by the start of camp, PJ will be taking all of all of his reps.  Matt cannot afford to lose reps

Agree. I don't blame them for negotiating but really don't see this disrupting his training camp.  The agent is supposed to negotiate the best deal and that is likely what he is trying to accomplish.  But, when push comes to shove, the best deal will be for him to sign the contract and get to camp. I suspect this will be over tomorrow and he will be reporting to camp on Tuesday regardless of whether the offset language/guaranteed mony is updated or not.

QB is the most sought after position now. Corral Ridder and Willis and their respective agents all know they play for teams where the starting QB position is either unsettled or shaky. I don't blame them one bit for getting all the guaranteed money they can.

I'm not seeing anything special about Ridders contract compared to the guys drafted near him. Guess the holdout either didn't work or they just agreed on some behind the scenes payment schedule of the signing bonus. Worst case scenario Corral would hold out and enter the draft again next year which would probably result in getting picked even lower. Really doubt that sine he's been at all the camps and the player organized thing

About month ago, i seen where the texans screwed up and gave their 3rd a extra 25k guaranteed(or part of the non-guaranteed). It set off a 3rd round issue league wide, cause all wanted the same deal.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By frankw · Posted

      The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.

      These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.

      Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
