Learning From Past Mistakes...

We all know what happened with the Brian Burns disaster and what could have been...Whats the approach with Derrick Brown.  The man is gonna get paid.  An extension would drop his cap hit this year but would his salary handcuff the team cap wise going foward?  Should Carolina consider trading him now for max value before the draft?  Could that have been the plan with bringing in Robinson?

Can’t see us trading away the best player on our D. Brown is coming off his best season last year and hasn’t hit his prime yet. Signing Robinson gives us another big body to help out the run D.

Extend now before he drives his price up again

All it takes is one down year and half the fans will be calling for them to traded. Remember how fans whined that D.J. Moore was really just a 'number 2' receiver.

I  dont think an extension now would change his current cap hit. If anything it would increase it as there would be distributed signing bonus on top his salary.

After mini camps,  it'll be time to get that contract done.  Hopefully they won't drag ass.

We got $108M in cap space next year before another increase so I don't think the cap is a concern. Give him his 20-25m asap. He's not a lazy dude, I think he's from a military family so he won't disappear after getting paid

[Jackie Lee]

One of our knocks from the media is not having any leaders. Pay him and he can step up into that role knowing he's gonna be here for a while

[jb2288]

Will just go up. Pay him now

don't publicity state to the entire world you turned down a monster trade package of two 1st and one 2nd and then hoping the player would take a hometown discount because you said nice things about him

I think he got married and has children early too? Doesn’t mean a person is mature but it’s not like you ever hear anything bad about him.
