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.

      Panthers possibly trading Thielen?

      By CPcavedweller · Posted

      I wouldn't be opposed to trading for Sanders and seeing if he could be developed here. We have zero plans, and I really don't think it would take Sanders long to produce more than Bryce has. Plus, he's on a 5th round rookie contract and if he became the guy, you instantly have three years to build a core of talent, much of which we already have.  I get flamed for this opinion but it is what it is, and I've been right about these type of things the past three years.  I said Nix would be a good NFL QB. Wanted to keep Darnold and trade down in 2023. Said QB play wasn't the QB's fault under Rhule, but rather the offensive design.  Give me Sanders in the room for a year with Bryce and Dalton, see what he can develop in to on the cheap. There are no really quality QB's coming out this year that aren't Allar or Manning, and Manning may not even be coming out.

      basically if the panthers trade Thielen they're not trying to win this year. I mean they're not going to regardless but this means its the plan not to.  no team is going into the season in 2025 with 80 career catches between their top 3 healthy WR.  you'd be turning this from a bottom 3rd of the league offense to like the nathan peterman bills pair that with a defense that is most likely going to struggle, and they're looking at 2001 again.
