I cant believe the OP is surprised, especially with Daniel Jones asking for 45million per year. We are bias here. He is 24 years old and has elite athleticism. Players get paid on that notion alone. 

Yeah, but not typically when they have a full rookie contract's worth of tape proving said athleticism doesn't translate very well or at all lol.

And as far as Daniel Jones...  yeah, that's ridiculous, but he's a QB and those guys seem to destroy the previous market value every year.

And he was a former 1st round pick.. those guys stay a long time in this league based on draft status alone. 

 

That said.. If he can catch on... man would we have an elite secondary.

The dude had some duds with us last year (Bucs game), but he also had some really great games. If you show up great on tape.. franchises see opportunity. I mean look at what CJ did with our last coaching staff... now put a competent staff in place for him and we could be eating our words.

I totally understand the humor around this thread, but at the same time... it can be just as quickly seen as a short sighted view.

He just seems disengaged many times ..almost joyless 

Not sure of the state of his contract but I wouldn’t resign him.
 

I think the Panthers can do better 

Despite being torched against TB last season, I still think Taylor has a chance to be really good.  He has shown more to me in flashes than CJ ever has.

To me elite athleticism might get draft position. 

but Production gets the second 

panthers can do better   Get someone who wants to play.  I don’t see a lot of ‘want to’ with that guy

Man, it's a lot of bad though.  But, you make a very, very valid point in that it is difficult to judge anyone under the former staff under which CJ was acquired and played for.  

It's just for me, the eye test suggests he will never live up to that draft billing, and in fact, the reality is likely far removed from that.  He just has had some horrible gaffes that you don't see from even average #2 corners.  I still remember going to the Superbowl with undrafted guys like Terry Cousins and Reggie Howard, and I don't remember those guys ever making the boneheaded plays CJ has repeatedly.  And that's why, even under a different staff I just wouldn't have much hope for him...  I would love to be proven wrong if he's here, but man...  a lot of those plays just looked like he was mentally checked out, and I don't think any coach is gonna fix that.

      2026 Charlotte FC Thread

      Was at the game and NYCFC honestly outplayed CLT the whole way.  Khalina and Zaha carried the team.  Zaha's wife on IG making it sound like he's gone come July. They're going to have to pay him or find a big time replacement because the team looks like pretty lost without him.

      No one's saying LaMelo has no blame we're responding to you acting like he's the reason they lost. The scapegoating and blaming the teams woes on his personality is where it's like Cam Newton all over again. It was a failure on multiple fronts and primarily Lee's. Dude said ON AIR pregame that they had to protect the paint and if that was his gameplan going in he couldn't have botched it more. As the commentators said Ball's a rhythm guy and Orlando was preventing him for getting any kind of flow going. I'm a normie watching on TV and said they needed to bait them into fouling to combat that. They didn't even try until the 2nd half when it was too late. I think it's fair to expect the star to overcome whatever but LaMelo was not the problem in that game and he's not what is holding the team back. He's the only reason they're flirting with being a great team. I kinda put the center play on Lee too. Moose is great until he's up against a big who can body him. We've always known that and that's what Kalkbrenner is for. I don't know if it would have changed much but Kalkbrenner should have had more minutes than him.  And moving forward with the center position, I just think it's the time to trade Diabate while his stock's high and that's not an indictment of his game. He's like an evolved combination of Biyombo and PJ. He's a great rim protector and the strength issue is just what you're going to have to deal with if you want that. But Kalkbrenner is perfectly capable of protecting the rim and we gotta get away from the undersized centers or it'll always be a problem for us.

      Honestly its why that Jalen Coker grab was a big deal.  I'd been warming up to the idea of a sadiq pick and was adamantly against a receiver...but this altered my train of thought.  I mean For instance, Cade Otton signed for 3 yr 30 mil contract...thats not dramatically different than the rookie payscale for #19 (4 year 20 mil with 5th year option), however you KNOW otton is decent...no clue if Sadiq will be anything.
