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 am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore 
    • Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it. 
    • Dan Marino sucked too I guess. Washed up Elway carried by Terrell Davis was actually better than prine Elway. Lol
