You beat me to it, but I would have begun with "I suspect we." 

Clowney hasn't exactly lit the world on fire, but he's trending up in his older age.

You could say the exact same thing about Burns. With 1/3 the risk and money invested.

Someone want to tell NBC?

Panthers signed EDGE Jadeveon Clowney, formerly of the Ravens, to a two-year, $20 million contract.
Ian Rapoport was first with the scoop and Adam Schefter later added the contract details. Clowney most recently played in Baltimore, racking up 9.5 sacks and nine TFLs in his only season as a Raven. Now a mercenary, Clowney has played for four different teams in five years since finishing out his rookie contract with the Texans. Even at 31 years old, Clowney is still a top-end pass-rusher who excels as the foil to another elite EDGE. He will join Brian Burns in Carolina to create a formidable pass-rush for a Panthers defense looking to retool after a disappointing 2023 campaign.

Clowney will join Brian Burns in Carolina?

He’s getting the final bag after his 1 yr 2.5 million with the Ravens.

 

Clowney is smart, he knows this is his last bag and I won’t be surprised if he rolls over and plays dead

Seriously that's pathetic.

Got a better edge guy for 1/3 the cost. Who'd a thought that was possible.  Yes I said better. 

I feel the same, 2023 and prior. Not as sure for 2024 and feel like we are going to see exactly how much Burns was sandbagging. He is going to post numbers.

edit: Dan though, that was a good job. Replaced Burns for less and was paid in picks to do it.

I think y'all are hyping this a bit much. Ravens had 5 pro bowlers on defense ? And Clowney wasn’t one. He was aloud to feast with that line and a scheme that put him all over because the other team was worried about everyone else.

Meanwhile here in Carolina he is most certainly going to have attention and be doubled up on.

Only plus is the money, he’d have to be very bad if he can’t earn 10 mil. This team still needs a dominant rusher go with the likes of Clowney/Browb to be in contention imo.

Same. Corbett at Center is a big question mark. Horn playing up to his draft status and staying healthy is also one. So center and corner trumps edge at this point.  33 and 39 need to be a WR, Corner or Center. I like Kneeland and Adisa at edge but starting to lean towards whichever WR catches our fancy or a corner.  Developmental center might be available later.  Van Prann is my hope but have a feeling he will go before 65. Sleepers like McCormick and Limmer are options but using the 101 on a Center worries me. Less fear bout scooping up a RB, TE or WR there. I think one of those top picks will be a WR though so a top tier Corner is more important at 33 or 39. I've seen DeJean slide to 33 in mocks. I don't know but I have some hope in this draft. 

I think they will look at Corbett and they feel good about it.  I think they have talked to him and he is on board.  However, Mays is also moving to C and I would not be surprised to see if BC is not involved.  Not ideal, but with 2 stud OGs beside you, he should be fine.

LMAO

 

With our luck this might be true.

 

We overpaid to get him considering his contract from last season. Dude quadrupled his salary from last season.

Build for the future and prepare.  A young Center still needs to be part of the plan.

      PFF: Top 15 NFL rookies through Week 11

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      2. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (80.4) McMillan caught eight passes for 130 yards in the Panthers' overtime win over the Falcons, both season highs. He was targeted 10 times in the contest and got into the endzone for the first time since Week 6, with two touchdown catches. His first score came late in the first quarter — a seven-yard catch with Jessie Bates III closing in coverage. The second came with a minute remaining in the fourth quarter, as he was able to uncover from a stumbling Kaden Ellis for a 12-yard grab on third down. That play gave the Panthers a one-point lead. McMillan gained seven first downs on the day and forced two missed tackles. He recorded three explosive gains of 15-plus yards, including catches of 29 and 39 yards. He also generated a perfect passer rating when targeted The top-10 pick now ranks sixth in receiving yards on the season (764) across 55 catches. He is also tied for sixth in targets (86) and tied for third among rookie receivers in touchdown catches (four). McMillan is up to 24 explosive gains, including 12 catches of 20-plus yards. He’s one of two rookie receivers to have recorded double-digit gains of 20-plus yards (Emeka Egbuka). The Arizona product's 75.8 PFF receiving grade over his past three games ranks 13th among wide receivers. He has caught 17 of 24 targets for 236 yards and 13 first downs in that span. He also places in the top 10 in explosive gains (six), yards per route run (2.38) and receiving yards during that run.   13. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (74.3) Evans recorded his first catch in three weeks, securing both of his targets for 28 yards in Week 11. Most of that production came in the third quarter when he was left alone in busted coverage for a 25-yard pickup. He allowed zero pressure on two pass-blocking snaps but was charged with four negative plays as a run blocker, leading to a 51.3 PFF run-blocking grade. Evans finished the contest with a 58.9 PFF overall grade. The fifth-round pick has now caught each of his 11 targets for 118 yards, earning a 72.6 PFF receiving grade. He has surrendered one hurry across 12 pass-blocking snaps, while his PFF run-blocking grade has now slipped to 68.0. Evans still leads the Panthers' tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade and positive play rate (17.5%).
