Cool so instead of scoring 7 we score 0.  We still get a pick and remove a veteran who is setting a terrible example.  You do see him giving up on routes right?  Guess who also has the most INTs when targeted in the league out of WRs?  I will give you a hint, he is a Panthers but not XL, Mingo, or Coker....

Teams are calling for Johnson. Playoff teams at that.

 

We will learn one day about trading away all of our good players. This offense is gonna struggle big time watch.

It’s not fun and games.  We are losing every week by 20-30 points.  If we didn’t have Johnson we’d still be losing every week by 20-30 points.  Overpaying Johnson won’t do any more than overpaying Christian Kirk did for Jacksonville.

We trade our actual good players away every year.

 

Y'all will learn if you don't have talent you won't be very good. The sad part is Johnson is gonna ball out like everyone else who leaves the Panthers.

Good point.

 

I keep forgetting we suck so bad that there is no chance that dude wants to stay here.

 

This is what this franchise has become.

It has already been reported he does not want to stay, he visibly quit on the field Sunday and his comments after the game shows that he is going to roll over on his teammates.

Get rid of him. It's a bad enough scenario without any locker room drama.

Sign him long-term.

 

We get a good player and just trade him away to a contender. What are those picks getting us?

i’ve heard he doesn’t want to sign here. If we’re were to resign him we’d have to overpay. It’s something that we seem to always have to do because of the rep and culture of our leadership and FO in recent years. 

It’s another reason we really need to focus on getting the draft right and getting players who can actually help us.

They are renting him as a WR2 for the rest of the season. Let’s see what we get in return for him….

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".

      As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.

      If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
