I have no problem extending him, converting a big chunk to a signing bonus(lowering his cap hit) and having more money to either roll over to 2025 or spend on Luvu and Brown.

well like I said thats the rub, how can tillis restructure this that works for the team because as it stands now moton is getting his money at some point.  And if tillis can work out an extension that lowers the cap hit and frees up space then awesome but we gotta see it first

Makes no sense to move on from your above average, proven, RELIABLE, tackle, when your line was a complete mess last year. He has been our only consistent on the line over the last 5+ years. If we haven’t learned already from CMC and DJ Moore, moving on from your proven playmakers can have a very negative effect. An extension makes perfect sense from a tent, team building, and cap perspective.

It's not that difficult. If he gets a sizeable signing bonus, remember that all gets paid out immediately upon signing. The cap tricks spread it out over X years but the money was long since actually spent.

well he ain't been that good either. the rest have just been really bad. between him and jackson it's like some of you all don't want to see this team get better.

What the hell are you talking about? T-Mo has been consistently good. He's not top tier, but he isn't getting paid like he's top tier, but he has been good.

Moton is going to be a career panther and you mouth breathers are going to have to suck it up and live with it.

I mean, I must be living in an alternate universe with people badmouthing Moton...or...maybe I'm just a member of the Carolina Huddle.

The difference between renegotiating, and restructuring seems to be lost on some. 

An extension would save money because you'd have more seasons to spread out the guarantees. 

Moton needs to stay, especially some consistency concerns with Ickey heading into yr 3.

He played the 4th most snaps in the league last season, gave up 1 sack, and had a green ratting every year he has been in the league. Just because you have an option on it does not make it fact. He was an iron man for us last season when everyone around him was switching out from game to game.

He was actually rated almost 6 points higher last season than the previous season when he only gave up 6 penalties and 3 snaps (4 penalties and 1 sack last season)

Did getting rid of CMC and DJ teach you nothing? You watched the line last season and think Motons performance warrants us to go in another direction or look for an improvement on that type of performance? Especially on a team with such little talent, and into a handful of players (Moton being one) that is an above average NFL player?

We are a 2 win team with more holes than a Lifetime movie plot. It's not getting fixed in a single offseason. Embrace the suck for a year, and just get it over with. 

...Yea...we've been embracing the suck for 6 years...whats one more at this point.

The clear best choice here is to extend him for 3-4 years and move some of this year's cap hit so it's spread out over the life of the new deal. We can't let our only good, reliable OL go just to save cap space.

Honestly, it's just simply hard to believe that any fan would suggest that we get rid of a quality lineman period, much less when we have a diminutive QB that was sacked 62 times last season. I just don't understand how anyone can purse their lips to suggest such a thing. It is nonsensical. It is worse than saying he played bad last year, and that's pretty damned delusional---out of touch with fúcking reality.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
