Probably aren't trading him.

Unless we give him permission to talk to other teams about a contract extension (like Lamar Jackson last year), we are keeping him.

The time to trade him is either before the draft, during is unlikely, after is pointless.

I believe the non-exclusive tag allows him to seek out offers. We can match or get two firsts.

This tells me that nothing has changed with this team. I do not want to hear Dan Morgan mention the word Dawg again. He's full of poo.

Yeah, that Tarzan chest pounding and Tool Time grunting may have worked at MLB, but not GM.  Burns is 25, so there is that--but I am not sure I would seek a long term deal.  Keep him for a season and see if you can find some others. I am also aware that we had some good edge rushers in Charles Johnson, Greg hardy, etc. that came of age in year 3.  MAYBE there is hope for Barno behind Burns--we shall see.  Leota was not that bad last season as an undrafted free agent, but he is more of a backup for YGM.  Johnson?  What the hell was that?  (BTW, he and Burns are the same age).

I hope that you're wrong, but keep a spot behind the podium for me to join you when I come to reality.

I hope I am too. But everything I'm hearing coming out in the press seems to indicate that the team seriously wants to keep him.

July 15th....clock is ticking, Tilis. Let's get this done. First hurdle is the NFL Draft, so if 0 is still a Panther after the draft, I think a LT deal gets done between then and July. No way they let a $24M hit remain in a very important offseason where adding talent is needed.

Why is this an important season? We barely got 2 wins last year. We aren’t fixing this team in one draft and FA. If we try to do that in one season we are basically repeating the last 6 years of futility. This is an evaluation year to see what pieces we have that are worth long term (Iky, Horn, Mingo and Young and the 2024 draft). Anybody not long term should be marketed if we can get something for them.

Also, FA is not where you add talent to a rebuilding team so the cap space shouldn’t be a concern. FA is where you should be adding the last pieces to the puzzle. We haven’t even unboxed the puzzle yet. If we are doing tons of restructuring so we can spend money now, we’ll be on a new coach and GM in a couple seasons. We need two successful drafts, before we worry about cap space and we are already missing 2 of our 4 top picks so we have to nail the drafts like the Rams did last year with no 1st.

You want him to walk for nothing? That is on Fitterer for turning down those trade offers. Morgan is in a no win situation here.

Personally, I think pressures are a more important stat than sacks because sometimes, the first to arrive and move the QB off the mark sends him into the arms of the last to arrive, who gets the sack.  I also would like a stat on how well an OLB holds the edge on a running play.  So maybe there is more to this than we see, but I get it--we live in the age now where college players do not attend bowl games in order to workout and not get injured.  Same basic concept?

      Is J-Stew a team propagandist?

      By csx · Posted

      He has said many times hes a diehard Panther fan. Being a former player he is going to be very pro player. I don't think its a conspiracy but just someone close to the individuals.

      OK, let me first say that I can't get any Twitter link to embed--using "X" or "Twitter" or whatever, and I'm tired of trying. Now, I must say that I see Panthers stuff in Facebook on occasion as I'm part of some group, but I see Panthers stuff even less on the cesspool that is now X, but as a follower of the official Panthers Twitter, stuff pops up on that feed too. I guess that I shouldn't be surprised that agents of the organization would be putting out tweets like this: He's not even trying to be objective. It stands to make sense though. In order to get better information, you have to go to national sources like Kurt Warner.  I'm not necessarily trying to pick on J-Stew, per se, but I can't take him seriously, as even some past Panthers players, like Greg Olsen for example, don't seem like they're just trying to cater to Panthers Nation, just saying hollow words to make everyone feel good.  I just wonder why here on the Carolina Huddle, there seems to be more objectivity, or at least more critical thinking and serious discussion than most other social media sources on the Panthers. It's interesting. There is a significant difference.  For all the changes and the seeming decline in popularity to whatever degree, the Carolina Huddle still has its place and plays a big part in overall Panthers fandom. We want to be happy, joyous and cheer for the Panthers, but we aren't necessarily trying to shoot sunshine up people's derrières either.
