They actually do have a smart FO that doesn't seem to make panic decisions. They aren't the Jets. They know that this can continue past Shanahan if need be.

I don't think they are likely to make this sort of move at all.

Except there have been lots of reports that it's a SB or bust season for Lynch as ownership hasn't been happy with the contracts he's given out because of what it's going to do to their cap situation in the next few years.

If they aren't at worst in the NFC Championship game again, he's 100% getting fired and there have been rumors that Shanahan, for as great as he's been, will end up being tied to Lynch's fate.

They have to make panic moves right now or it's going to cost them their jobs.  I'd be shocked if they don't trade for a WR before the deadline, whether it's one of our guys or someone like a Mike Williams who is clearly available, who knows, but they'll get someone.

The team would not look this God awful without all the injuries. I'm not saying it would be good.

Without the injuries they may have won 3 games total. We may not have gotten blown out so badly but that window has already closed.

Hubbard and Johnson are the only ones of value I would trade. Maybe Moton.

I think next year moton has a 40 million cap charge.....

 

thats the other kill shot with drafting poorly, theres no extra cap space to sign players that teams allowed to hit FA. One of my fav listens had a saying " teams do not allow good players to leave " rare cases like when the panthers let norwell hit FA, but they already paid top bucks to turner.

The other kicker it takes most FA one year to adapt to the new team. 

ugh..

How can you have no talent and no cap space???

TBH, I don't buy the Lynch rumors even a little bit. If anything, he has proven how adept he is at evaluating and acquiring talent(in free agency and through the draft).

IMO, Shanahan is likely the one to be staring at the hot seat.

The bigger issue is less money than this being a desirable spot in free agency outside just trying to get paid. I think we will dramatically struggle to make good FA additions here until we get this ship turned around. It's basically draft or bust.

Oh I absolutely buy the rumors as they've been handing out huge contracts lately and haven't won the SB yet on their QB's rookie deal and are somehow even worse this year (yes I know injuries play a factor).

Being great at evaluating talent only gets you so far, if you don't win the SB and are saddling yourself with serious cap issues in the very near future, it's not going to help a GM keep his job.

I think Lynch is in far more danger of being fired than Shanahan because of those contracts, far too much smoke about ownership being unhappy about the Williams and Aiyuk contracts for there to be no fire.

Just to add about FA passing on signing here, besides the losing. The QB is unknown. Think if youre a decent WR and carolina calls you up with a offer and you ask "who is the QB for 2025"........If carolinas plan to try BY again, LOLOLOLOLs. A rookie LOLOLLLLLLLLOOLOLs. There no cap space to sign a Qb besides vet min, LOLLOLOLOls. 

so they need a plan for QB and i doubt Drew Lock would get the FAs to came here....

 

No talent

No depth

No QB

No young talent

No cap space

Your Carolina Panthers!!!

This is literally the same thing thrown at the Saints for years and years but that GM soldiered on. 

Shanahan will bear the brunt of these failures because everyone with any sense can see that is the most talented roster in the NFL.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
