“Carolina sniffing around on Jerry Jeudy”

It's a misery factory and it's only going to get worse for the next two years. 

It may, but misery loves company. Take an extended break, but don't leave forever. It just wouldn't seem right to transfer loyalties to another team, as there's no history there. We've had too many people leave supposedly for good, and not just because the team has  sucked for the better part of the last decade.

It's still too much, if we're paying Jeudy $13 million next year, on top of having Thielen and Mingo, we're not going to be able to afford paying for another WR who is better than Jeudy to be our #1, and Jeudy is NOT a #1.

 

Depends on if we get Burns or not. If we don’t we could pay Brown, lock up $45M in WR group, and still have money left over since Bryce is cheap. Remember Chark is on a 1 year

I’m sure the plan would be to negotiate a contract extension that would convert most of his 2024 salary into a bonus. That’s assuming the Broncos don’t take on some of what he’s owed which they may. 
 

There would still be enough money to go after Higgins in the off-season and keep Theilen and Mingo around.

WR1 - Higgins/Mingo

WR2 - Jeudy/TMJ

Slot - Theilen/Ihmir S-M (return duties)

 

That’s likely a ~#10-15 WR room in 2024 if we can swing it. We’re currently ~#32. That would certainly help give Bryce options. Higgins’s stock right now is at its lowest. Some rough drops + struggling offense + injury should knock his asking price down.

Was always going to be a "ham sandwich" type of deal. I would have preferred the Panthers spend essentially no draft capital for the slight chance that Claypool works out.

One of these WRs was just acquired for a ham sandwich the other is supposedly worth a 2nd and a 4th. Can you figure out who to pay extra draft capital for?

A guy who has admitted to being lazy is not someone I want to risk it for, especially with a new coaching staff trying to establish their systems.

Jonathan Jones is reporting we likely won’t trade unless it’s a phenomenal deal. 

Phenomenal deal for us or for the other team? We have had plenty of the latter lately. Bears are extremely happy. 49ers are over the moon happy. Jets were ecstatic with their haul. Jax was happy to get a day 2 for their failed draft pick.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
