Bosa’s shouldn’t be factor.  And now that we have seen it….that just doubles that point.  

Just because a team does something stupid doesn’t mean the rest of the league follows suit, with players that aren’t comps. 

Paying Burns 120+ million guaranteed? Debating that isn’t a debate.  Fire Fitt today if he is that dumb.  

What? It's absolutely a factor. The heck do you think he did all of this for?

luvu, brown, chinn are all on deck now

If Jammie Robinson pans out I wouldn't be shocked to see us move on from Chinn unless he's willing to take 7 mil or so a year which is what CJG just got. Going to also have to put aside $5-6 mil or so for whoever we replace Henderson for as our #3 corner. Still about another year left before we can move on from Donte's contract.

$26M is 76% of what Bosa got.  His production not at that level for the past 2 years (see my chart above.)

 

That's not how contracts are done though.  Burrows is about to well be the highest paid player in the NFL by quite a bit. Parsons is going to crush this Bosa deal next year with an aav of 36-38m.

Not good for us.

Well that depends on what side of the fence you currently sit on in regards to all this.

If you're on the side of "Burns isn't worth the elite pass rusher money" then no, this isn't good for us.

But if you're like me and on the side of, "we turned down 2 firsts, we have to get it done and not worry about the money since in a few years it will be a bargain contract when the next batches of pass rushers get their deal" then this is OUTSTANDING news.

It now gives the team the ability to give him his 28-30 a year that he wants, which while it's more than the team wants to pay, it keeps him solidly below the top number, which will then continue to get topped over the next few years.

So we give Burns his 28-30 a year now, we'll feel much better about that when Parsons gets 36-38 next offseason.

Micah Parsons is going to get more $ than Nick Bosa even though according to that chart his stats aren't at the same level. It's not an analytical discussion, it's production vs. precedent. Both come into play.

Thats what you can do when you have a 7th round QB on his rookie contract. 

They won't in the end 

CMC for example will get restructured as he has a $14 million cap hit and an $11.8 million salary.  They'll end up re-structuring that to be like a $10 million roster bonus and a $1.8 million salary so they can spread that 10 million into future seasons.

Do that with 3-4 of the guys on that list and they cleared up a solid 20-30 million from that alone for next year.

      something to feel good about in the offseason..."could be something special brewing in Carolina"

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Then don't tune in. It's really not a hard concept to understand, if your making your decision based on your own personal needs/feelings as opposed to what is best for the future of the franchise, then it's a you problem, not a Panthers problem. When the season is already lost, every fan should be rooting for the same thing.  The team plays hard until the final whistle of the season and keeps improving as a team and individually, but in the end, we still come up short and lose games, and preferably because the other team beat us, not because we screwed up and found a way to lose due to our own fault. Look at it this way... If we are up 1 or 2 points with 3 seconds left in the game and the other team is lining up for a FG.  Beyond the joy of victory or the disappointment of defeat, what impact does the other team making or missing the FG have on our team the following season? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Except where we draft and what teams we play due to our finish in the division. The players and coaches on the team would have the exact same level of improvement and learnings about themselves individually and as a team whether the FG is made or missed.  The ONLY difference in the end is the record in the standings and if the win or loss number changes. If you want to argue if making the playoffs to lose in the first round or just missing them is better or worse, that's totally fair and I can at least understand the other side of it.  But in what is already a lost season, if you're not hoping your team plays well but ends up losing, then you're cutting off your nose to spite your face.  You're hoping for a moment of happiness at the detriment of the franchise's future, and in turn, you're basically then happy for a moment to only set yourself up for future further disappointment.

      If we’re eliminated I want the wins more.   The season is already a disappointment and if I’m not pulling for wins why bother to tune in?

      Two things terribly wrong with this post. First is that not one time has myself or anyone else agreeing with me said that the team themselves should think that way or try and lose for positioning.  Never once have I suggested the team should purposefully lose games, ever.  I honestly can't understand why people keep saying this in posts, not one fan has ever said the players should or would purposefully try to lose. And second, is yes, that has happened and it's happened very recently.  The 2020 Bengals were 4-11-1 and then were playing in the SB the very next season.   And while it might have been 2 years later and they didn't quite get to the SB, the 2021 Lions were 3-13-1 and then the 2023 Lions were up 24-7 at halftime of the NFC Championship game. The season between those two? They finished 9-8 and only just missed the playoffs. Which is why I keep trying to compare us to the Lions in where we are at in our re-build.  Throw out Bryce's rookie year with the Reich staff who just didn't work out and he looked god awful.   This past season when we were 5-12 in Canales' 1st season is that 2021 season for the Lions and their 1st season under Campbell.  This year is their 2022 where they grew a ton and Campbell's culture building was clear, where I'm saying we'd likely be better off in the long run if we go 8-9 or 9-8 and just miss out on the playoffs (which is still a significant improvement from last year).  Then our 2026 is their 2024 when we have a chance to be a real contender after adding a few more pieces and our key players having another year of experience under their belts.
