Josina Anderson said we told him at the combine we aren't continuing negotiations lmao

 

 

I mean, what's left to talk about? He and his team have their number and we're not willing to go there. Probably not even close to it. When they first started talking extension it was reported that Burns wanted "close to $30M per". If I recall correctly it later came out that Burns was looking for $27M and we were at $23-24M. With the bump in cap, I get Burns is on $30M now and after this past season the Panthers are probably getting cold feet on $24M.

Burns was reportedly offered 27 mil. This is why I became so disgusted with him. That was really more than fair.

We should trade him and move on.

 

It's kind of sad they haven't come to an agreement after a full year. What I don't understand is how do you turn down that trade offer from the Rams if you knew a contract wasn't going to be realistic.

 

Just shows you how dumb Fitt was as a GM.

Fitt has a resumé of bad moves. Not accepting that trade offer was GM malpractice.

So far ive heard 2 rumors from the dan morgan era.  They are probably going to cave and overpay burns because the cap increase and they keep talking to the big receivers that dont get seperation in the draft.  I strongly disagree with both of these moves and I never liked promoting Dan.  I always felt like we needed a full refresh and this is just confirming my fears.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
