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.

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.

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

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.

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Let’s be real, there’s no way the Bengals can trade him for less than first round value from an optics stand point.

      The Franchise guy Panthers 2025 deep dive overview

      Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
