Good things? What good things?

-Signed Darnold

-Traded for Mayfield

-Traded up to draft Corral

-Didn’t resign Gilmore despite trading for him for not even a full season.

-Picked up Darnold’s 5th year option.

-Traded a 3rd for CJ Henderson

-Extended Ian Thomas

-Extended Donte Jackson

-Extended Robbie Anderson ( whom we are paying 10 million for this year). 
 

He’s not the GM everyone on here acts like he is. People just like him because he’s not Hurney or Gettleman. I’m not so sure he’s better than either at this point.

they are going to say it was rhule making the call

 

But it really doesnt matter as his fate is clearly tied to Young.  If he works he has a job in 2/3 years.  If not he is gone.  Its pretty simple like that, but yeah all in all fitt has done some dumb poo and now it appears #1 on that list is not trading burns to a desperate rams team that appears to be aiming for a couple of top 5 picks in the next 2 drafts

The more I think about him the more I realize he might be our worst gm. We have no depth because the drafts have been trash. We essentially had to trade cmc for Sam darnold because of mismanagement of assets (the cmc trade simply recovered the assets we gave up for darnold and henderson). We passed on fields to take an injury prone although very good corner. If we got the Young pick wrong were set back at least 5 years.

-Extended Robbie Anderson ( whom we are paying 10 million for this year). - Rhule all the way. Chosen Chosen or what ever his name is now didn’t even make a roster.

So ya, most of it had Rhules finger prints all over it. Fitterer kind of feels like a pushover though we’ll see what kind of moves come down the pipeline this year as it progresses. Specifically how our other draft picks perform. It’s hard to GM a college coach used to having everything his way.

Wonder how refusing to work while still under contract would fair in the private sector…yeah….

NFL isn't a government job.

It's known as a strike. Contracted private sector workers have been effective in using them as a negotiating tool forever

I'm so upset. Now that my house is officially on the market, the buyers know I want to sell, and they have all the leverage!! 🤣🤣🤣

A buyer looked on your Facebook page and saw that you had posted that you're relocating and need to sell so you can buy a new house in the next month. They lowball because you need to free up the cash to make a down payment, offers aren't coming in, and you can't carry 2 mortgages. That's leverage.

Which isn't the case with Burns. He's under contract, and he was going to get paid regardless. 

Oh, and I'd never sell a house in a hurry. There are better ways to financially handle that type of situation.

You need a better agent if it comes down to that.

Burns value is set by the market regardless of what happened with a previous trade

And right now it is the perceived market.  He and his agent are looking at recent deals and the Panthers are looking at how recent deals compared to him.

The fact that we turned down a pair of firsts and a high second for him last year will impact his side's view of the market for him and his worth to the Panthers.

But the market will not truly speak until he becomes a FA.  Then, it only takes one team to bid his price up substantially.  Kinda like we did in the Jet's trade value for Darnold.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
