Call me crazy, but we might have improved the pass rush after all

For as hyped as he was and as big of a name as he is, Clowneys stats are not that great. 

I agree, but he has been a solid starter for a decade, pulling in his best sack numbers (tied at 9.5) last year at 30 yo. Hopefully Evero can squeeze every last drop of gas he has in the tank and just maybe our developmental players will pick up some knowledge.

A generational player does not come around every year. They come around once in a decade, maybe two decades.  So I do not agree about generational prospects. You cannot predict them, they rise to the top when the games are played. 

I don't mean the prospects are actually generational.  I just mean there's very few of them that actually pan out that way.  I agree with you.

Yep, I mean the last "generational" QB is a mid-tier guy in Jacksonville. But hey, props to him. Because he still got paid like he was the guy he was drafted to be.

If you take a look at his advanced metrics he has been really good in several categories and his supporting cast has let him down. 

Im not saying he is worth that contract, Goff isnt worth what he got either. The league is full of guys that are overpaid, thats the next man up dumb poo.

Don't know who you are, but if you don't understand that people use the term "we," as the league, owner, coaches, players and fans as part of a team, literally and/or figuratively, then you don't understand being a fanatic or marketing, which in large part are based upon appealing to emotions.

In this case, "we" are the Panthers.

Keep Pounding!

OOU?

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
