Trading or cutting DJax, cutting Thomas, extending Moton, extending Brown, and working out a Burns extension/trade will clear out a good bit. The first few DJax, Thomas, and Moton could happen fast IMO. Bozeman could clear up a decent amount too if we are wanting to move on from him. 

Yeah the extensions, I suppose. I'm assuming with Djax and Thomas, we'll have to spend basically whatever we save in cap space on new FA's to replace them so thats why I was saying some sideways moves. Jackson would be a decent chunk of free space but to pick up a starter would cost almost all of that $10M. Spotrac even has fuging CJ Hendersons market value at like $8M lol

Who might be willing to trade for Burns? The Ravens would make sense, and in theory could offer their first-round pick, 30th overall, three spots ahead of Carolina's top pick right now. The Rams won't offer what they had before on Burns, but they're logically still a top suitor, and they have a bevy of picks, so they could potentially offer their second (52nd overall) and a fifth. Washington, with ample cap room to handle an extension with Burns, has an extra second and third this year, so the Commanders could package the 36th and 101st picks to add Burns, helping offset their trading Montez Sweat and Chase Young at last year's deadline.

I don't think any sane person ever said that Peppers wasn't good 

Plenty did the first time he left the team. He had that weird season where he only had 2.5 sacks and a lot of people were saying he wasn’t worth the money and played lazy whenever he finally left us. You are right that they weren’t sane, but many were saying that.

thats some revisionist ass history right there.  And was the 2.5 sack season his mono year?

If those are the best options simply keep him easy decision

The non-exclusive tag gives Morgan the bargaining power if another team doesn't offer him a deal. We're able to get him at a better deal than he's asking for.

His agent IMO is the driving force behind the top dollar deal he wants. If his agent is so damn good he should be able negotiate a deal with another team and get him what he wants.

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. 

If you want to trade him,  representing any other intention than you plan to keep him is unwise

He's been tagged. He's either kept or traded at this point.

Unless you are dumbass Dave Gettleman

You cannot keep this secret. You cannot tell me agents and teammates do not talk about this to friends on other teams. Anyone in any FO have already heard what's up through the grapevine. Any team interested already knows what they are willing to pay him and what they are willing to give up to do so. The Panthers have no bargaining power unless they get more than one suitor. You know that no team is giving up that much capital for Brian Burns. No amount of hype can overcome his tape. That's the bottom line.

Hopefully Burns' agent last big deal wasn't trying to renegotiate super sizing his combo like Norman's. Gettleman was a dumb ass but bringing an agent with zero experience in big contract negotiations was equally as idiotic.

The reality is always somewhere in the middle. 

No matter what we may think with our bias as fans, he's still a young (25), higher end player at a premium position (He's younger than Kenny Pickett lol)  And there are many EDGE desperate teams that are contenders who he would help put over the top.    

He's not the well-rounded defensive centerpiece we want out of an EDGE or DE talent (rather one dimensional), but he's absolutely still valuable and for at least a 1st and could probably notch out a 15-sack type season on the right team.  There are definitely some skewed perspectives in this place.  He's was a top-3 overall FA available this season by nearly every site and analyst for a reason (the respected and awful ones alike)

We're not getting 2 firsts, but we should easily get a min one.  

Now, I'm unsure if we'd necessarily be getting a 2024 1st, but I could see a 2025 and a mid-rounder this year.  Something in that ballpark.  And that's if he doesn't sign long term which still obviously seems like what we are at least putting out there. 

My longshot wish is getting a minimum 2024 3rd and 2025 1st for him.   Then you go after a Greenard or Bryce Huff long term in the $15-19 mil range.  That's roughly 10-12 mil more a year to work with for a similar output in a rebuilding environment.  Send him to a spot where he can keep doing his spider pose.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      Just as we won those close games we could have just as easily lost them. So the jury is out on if we were more lucky than good ( see the sweep by the saints) Were moving forward on paper. And how badly dont we all want to see us back to at least Above average form. Its about time.

      Ranked Panthers as the Best this year!!

      By frankw · Posted

      If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
