pretty amazing for us to pull him int his FA market considering our team's current situation (not being a contender) and the fact that we're drafting a rookie qb

We’re in absolutely no position to start using void years into 26-27.

Unfortunately for us if Fitterer isn’t winning by then he’ll be come and those years won’t be his problem 

If I’m not mistaken, if Thielen retires during those void years they go off of the books (dead cap wise). It’s possible they are banking on that.

 

also, the eagles did the void years with a players during their Super Bowl victory seasons, and somehow they were able to get the void years Goff the books. I need to brush up on it, but mainly there are ways around them.

2022 Thielen + Sanders + Hurst = 2477 yds 19 TDs

2022 DJ + Foreman + CMC (6 games) = 2498 yds 15 TDs

It sucked to lose DJ, a fan favorite, but....

  • We moved from 9 --> 1
  • A new franchise QB1 is finally in our sights
  • A competent, loaded coaching staff at the helm
  • Still room to add another WR and/or TE
  • Cap flexibility in '24 (though it is starting to dwindle)

It's a great time to be a Panthers fan. Thielen will thrive here as a WR2 in '23 if he can stay healthy....probably becomes the WR3 in '24 and then is off the roster in '25.

No reason to think he can't put up 50-750-7TD next year.

Whooooaaaaa Uncle Ray wasn't expecting those contract details...I think the only other WR we're getting in FA would be one like Jamison Crowder

no body talks abt it but AAI2 is one of the best plots in  the franchise

also don't worry this still puts us in play for someone like Chark, but I rly wouldn't rule out another CB.

It really is; love how that story played out. Probably has my favorite characters out of all the versions too

    • Been here a while but rarely post and most of them are smartazz. Mostly lurk just so I can sound informed while hanging out drinking beer in my neighbors garage. Amusingly a Huddle level of knowledge kind of makes you a subject matter expert. Thanks for that.
    • That’s similar as saying MVP Cam is the same as rookie Cam because his mechanics didn’t change. We’re talking about production.
    • In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.
