It would make no sense for the Panthers to be signing some of these guys to 1-year contracts this year 

Nothing wrong with trying to win. The defense - and offense - do not look as inept as they originally did. One-year contracts are perfect for teams not wanting to cripple future cap situations.

The Panthers aren’t winning this year though. For one damn season they need to accept that and quit sacrificing future cap

one year deals absolutely effect future cap. For one, you roll over what you don’t use. Two, a lot of these one year deals now include void years (dead money). DJ Chark’s dumb contract counts for 3.1 million in dead money this year

Sounds like the Jets are pushing really strong to get him. Several reports saying this.

Yeah it’s probably where he ends up, but from what I’m reading it’s just the jets really want him, not the other way around. I remember a quote from one of the Grumpy Old Men movies: “you can wish in one and crap in the other and see which one gets filled up first”.

I'm glad the decision-makers don't share your thought process. Tampa was supposed to suck last year, too. I guess they should have just accepted that projection.

Well lucky for you the Panthers have shared your thought process for some time now and it’s exactly why were in this mess

Really smart

      No it's not, there isn't a single coach who's only job is to win games, because no coach is going to win games unless they're also improving the quality of play out of their players. For coaches with contending teams, winning is their #1 job, but I think it's a more than reasonable take to say that coaches of not yet contending teams winning comes second to making your players better. We have 11 games left, if you gave me the option of winning all 11 of the games in terribly ugly fashion to where we don't improve the quality of our players vs we lose all 11 games, but do so in spectacular fashion where our players show significant improvement, I'm taking option B every time. Because option B is the path to future and long term success, while option A is a path to short term happiness at the expense of long term franchise stability.   And yes, that is clearly an extreme example that could never actually play out in either way, but you still know what I mean.  And no, it has nothing to do with draft position, it's about how good will these players be a year, 2 years, 3 years, etc, down the line, when you hope to be a true contending team, because nobody actually thinks we're that type of team this year unless you're literally crazy

      Yeah if that's what we're signing up for here, then I just can't get behind it.  That contract extension that Hurney gave Jake that offseason was BRUTAL.

      That's quite literally his only job. Every year has new goals, new identities, etc. But the one constant is to win at all costs. He isn't guaranteed to be here next year UNLESS he wins. Why would he give a poo to mold a bunch of players someone else might be coaching?
