Do we attempt to extend Diontae this season?

Except, please show me those words. I don't see that he said that, all I see is the writer saying that he said it. 

We have the same quote we have seen about he's a Panther etc etc. Let's look at it:

Quote

“I can't control some of the stuff they put out there,” Johnson said. “I can only just come in and here and continue to be the player I have been since I got here in April. I'm not really worried about it. Whatever happens, happens. I'm locked in with the Panthers right now.”

That is what is in the article. Then there is Canales saying this:

Quote

 

Panthers coach Dave Canales did his best to quell the trade rumors at his news conference.

“My job is to do the best things to put the best 11 guys out there,” Canales said. "We love the guys that are developing in the progression that we have, so I don't see that happening.”

 

fuging 'journalists' these days. This is not accurate reporting. No attribution to the claims made within. Print it though....

He's gone. There's absolutely zero chance he re-signs here. He didn't want to come here in the first place.

This didn't age well. I don't know where you got that impression in the first place. I have half-way followed Johnson over the years, and I don't remember him saying anything like that, even as a Steeler.

The Panthers wide receiver said Wednesday that he'd prefer to remain in Carolina and sign a long-term contract, but acknowledged his future is largely out of his hands.

I mean what was he going to say- "Get me outta HERE!!!" He posted a "ineed money gif" Instagram. He will go to the highest bidder like 90% of the players. Given the insane WR market, I doubt the panthers can be that. If some team is offering a 3rd or elite team offers a 2nd, you take that and still try to resign him in the off-season

The deal is dalton is a FA and i doubt he wants any part of BY, unless panthers are the highest number in guarantees

before the season I would have said nah, but he legit looks  like a dude you build an offense around, like that good.  I think he bumps heads in crowded WR rooms, but he's good when he's the one leading the room.  He is a diva, but he also is fuging good, so let him be everyones darling and we can all be happy.

I haven’t seen or heard anything from Diontae as a Panther suggesting he’s a poor teammate or diva. Maybe Pickens is the diva and difficult to share targets with. Idk, but I do know we should lock him up with a 3-4 year contract if he’ll take 22ish mil per year. If not, tag him and find a suitor.

Where is the source for that information? It doesn't appear true from conflicting articles ive read. Should we place a wager whether he signs here or not since you are 100% sure he wont? Sounds like an easy win for you.

    • I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though   
    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
