About $3 mil/sack so far.

I don't even know that it was himself that thought he was so great. Fitterer basically handed over the keys to the kingdom by turning down a massive trade haul. How could he not ask for top 5 money when you turned down a package that could net you a franchise QB?

I will never forgive Fitterer for not taking that trade from the Rams. He is by far one of the worst GMs I have ever seen or right there at the very top. I wouldn't trust him to be in charge of cleaning sweaty jock straps much less run an NFL team. It's sad how far he set the team back by not taking that trade

five sacks, seven tackles for loss and seven pass deflections in nine games

 

Not eye popping,  although he's part of a very good defense.  Our oline definitely has it's work cut out. 

He has never really been able to produce eye popping stats or consistently be a high impact player.

He is more of a top 10-15 pass rusher but is getting paid as a top 5 pass rusher. That was always the rub. He isn't a bad player by any means.

He'll have a coming to Jesus moment when he gets met with a pulling Robert Hunt the first play of the game. He will have a typical Burns game where he makes 2 or 3 really good plays but then disappear for majority of the game. People will talk about the 1 sack and a couple pressures but ignore the fact he'll give up 80 or more yards rushing to his side of the football.

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      I think Dillon can be what Eric Shelton was supposed to be.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      Yeah, no way he's an option at 19. We could honestly probably get him in the 3rd round.

      I mean, on some level I get it. They want to know 100% for sure before they either extend Bryce or move on. I imagine the logic behind it is that if they add another weapon and Bryce doesn't show he can be a franchise guy then we'll be in great position to draft another QB and slot him into an offense with 3 legit WRs, a good TE and a solid OL. I don't think it's as simple as the front office trying to "justify" an extension for Bryce. If they're not sold on Bryce then they know paying him big money is a recipe for disaster and at that point just trying to please Tepper isn't going to save their jobs in the long run if they're stuck with a QB we can't win with. I think Morgan and Canales are just as uncertain on Bryce as the fanbase is. They see his limitations, but they also see flashes where he has managed to overcome them and look like a potential franchise QB. I think they're trying to avoid Bryce becoming the next Baker Mayfield or Sam Darnold and want to do everything they can to give him what he needs to succeed so that if/when the time comes to move on from him nobody can say "the Panthers were the problem" if he goes elsewhere and succeeds. And if we do end up having to bring in another QB in a year or two if nothing else they will have the pieces around them as well and can hit the ground running. I also think drafting a WR in the 1st this year would be as much about missing on XL as it would trying to justify extending Bryce. Personally I think we need to just count ourselves lucky to have landed a legit #2 WR as an UDFA in Coker (which helps negate the miss on XL in the 1st) and try to find a good slot receiver in free agency or the 2nd-4th rounds while focusing on defense and the OL in the 1st round.
