I think we have to wait until we see him behind our OL and our scheme. I personally don’t think RB is that big of a need when you can draft one in any round this year and come out with a good one but as far as Sanders’ contract goes I don’t mind it.

I’d probably have gone cheap and just signed someone like Jeff Wilson but I’m not going to hate on the Sanders deal because I think his contract is very fair.

Below is the AAV’s for NFL running back’s, if Sanders is overpaid, it’s by a measly $350K a year.

As for Foreman, I think he showed that he is one dimensional last year. Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Tampa all shut him down last year down the stretch and unfortunately we ended up losing those games. When he isn’t breaking tackles, he doesn’t provide a whole lot.

 

You just begged my point. No shade at Sanders but why? Think you agree with me without joining this shitshows venom.

We have money to spend, might as well spend it. It would be one thing if we could get elite talent at the WR position but unfortunately the free agent WR group is trash.

Running back and tight end are the next best options to address for a young QB and the Panthers addressed both.

Hope I didn't spew at you, was tired of getting accosted. Your points were great. Fear the huddle reading them. The staff has been perfect up to and including 2 firsts for Sean Gilbert. Never disagree with them! Blame everyone and your friends later!

Sanders is probably 6x better than Hubbard. Hubbard had a few nice runs last year but he’s still butt cheeks. The new system probably needs a RB with hands, that ain’t Chuba 

This. To ME, Hubbard is cut worthy and we could draft someone in the 6th round that’s better. He has terrible hands in terms of ball security AND receiving. It’s not like he’s got game breaking speed. He was opportune, as many other backs in this system were. Much rather have Sanders/ Kendre Miller.

If we’re off by $2M for a WR that has barely cracked the 1K mark and has never played a full season then he wanted too much money anyway in my opinion.

He’s really the only young WR left so we’ll probably have to overpay a bit but it is what it is I guess, shout-out John Fox.

But yeah, in reality, that deal needs to get done. There’s nothing else out there at the WR position.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
