If we offered Foreman a multi year deal it was clearly less than 3 a year which he wasn't happy with. Oh well. Foreman had an offer on the table well before Miles Sanders became a Panther

I think he's actually saying that he'd prefer Hubbard to Sanders

Every year we win the off-season in our fans eyes, we literally lose everyone, am I not allowed to question one move with out being considered a moron.

I don’t think this is playing out the way you think it is.  It appears in this thread you have asked a question about sanders vs foreman and people have given you an answer but you are disagreeing with them and/or being borderline disrespectful.

 

that’s the core issue here. Why ask a question if you aren’t going to agree with the answer?

You do have the right to question but there are gonna be rebukes...I'm not gonna lie I am biased because I had Sanders pegged as a target the moment FA season hit.

You literally said “Flame on.” What did you expect? Also, nobody was really even flaming but you got bent out of shape real quick I don’t even know why. The first person to call somebody a moron was, in fact, you. You started this thread defensive and just gone down hill from there.

Haven't got a good answer yet . Watch Foreman n Hubbard last year. This dude does not have that at all.

I can't say I'm a HUGE fan of it, but I understand the rationale as he's a complete back that catches out of the backfield and will probably be our rookie QB's safety valve. Also, it's not that bad of a contract - it's really a 2-year deal and then the Panthers can move on without too much of a hit, if necessary. There's no guaranteed salary after the 2024 season, so cutting him out right would leave just under $3m of dead money and free up just over $5m of cap space. We'd just be on the hook for the remaining prorated signing bonus: https://overthecap.com/player/miles-sanders/7844

I know people are struggling with this. It's really what teams.want out of theirnstarting running back. They want a running back whom can play ever down, and catch out of the backfield. 

Sanders is a lot like CMC, but without CMC's price.  Consider him a value.

      Jabrill Peppers Available

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I’m not mad at Moehrig.  He’s great at what he does.  And to be honest, a lot of my favorite safeties in our history were box-first type guys - Maxie, Minter, Mike Mitchell, Chris Harris…  they’re first and foremost objective was to put people on their backs and coverage was secondary.  There is a place for that.  There is a definite need for that.  Physical guys that set the tone.  So cool, we have that in Moerhig. But what we have lacked for the vast majority of our existence is a true free safety that cleans everything up on the back end.  Sometimes they come in the form of a JOAT, like Peppers.  I think he would be a fantastic compliment to Moehrig’s strengths and weaknesses.  If we don’t go after him, I certainly hope Ransom is given the chance to grow and develop in real-time with real game reps, because what he did in preseason was very encouraging to see.  I hope he can grow into that roaming center fielder with a little bit of an edge to him as an enforcer as well.  He has the tools.  In the meantime, adding Peppers would only help.

      Everything revolves around Bryce This Year

      Option 1 is most likely. Even if he kills it this year, it wouldn't be prudent to rush an extension for one good season. If you have to pay him more because you waited another year, then he earned it. And that's OK. Adjust accordingly.

      Cam had the advantage of having a very strong supporting cast his first 2 seasons. Things definitely worsened later on. But those first couple of years can kill a QB. Some never truly recover. If they do recover it takes years, and usually with another team. Trying to learn to be an NFL QB with TEs and WRs that are trying to learn too is a recipe for disaster. Imagine if Cam's rookie season was that 2014 offensive squad. Changes everything! I said it when they moved up in 2023. This team wasn't ready for a rookie QB yet. Anyone that thinks Stroud would have been a lot better is delusional. The correct formula is to build a strong team and then you go get your rookie QB. Not the other way around. BY is going into his third season and we're still trying to put a respectable group of WRs and TEs around him. I think they have the right personnel now. Unfortunately they haven't developed into actual NFL players yet.  This season we should expect consistency and aggressiveness from BY. Mostly for his development but also to DEVELOP his young cast.
