Per Mike Kaye, Charlotte Observer 

▪ Impending free agents: If this beat writer was in Brady Christensen’s shoes, I’d look to head elsewhere for better pay and a guaranteed starting job. But if he can’t and that opportunity, the Panthers getting him back would be a huge boost for the ofensive line. Otherwise, the rest of the re-signing options are pretty much toss-ups.

Long snapper JJ Jansen and punter Johnny Hekker have value beyond their job titles. Cornerback Mike Jackson, tight end Tommy Tremble and wide receiver David Moore really t in well with the culture, and all three played well in pretty big spots this season.

Andy Dalton wants to return, and with Bryce Young in the QB1 seat, keeping that room together makes sense.

Feleipe Franks and Sam Franklin are logical targets for re-signing because of their value on special teams. Re-signing Austin Corbett and Cade Mays to compete at center is a logical, costeective strategy that seems to align with the way the Panthers will approach their already expensive trench group

Wouldn't be mad to see Woods go.

He needs to go.

I’m tired of seeing him always trying to go for the knockout hits (which he doesn’t even do right most of the time) instead of wrapping up and missing easy tackles.

While on the subject:

 

The Panthers saw enough in Ekwonu to make him the first offensive tackle off the board in the 2022 NFL Draft. It's been a rollercoaster ride, but the player's determination in the face of adversity should be rewarded.

 

This is not going to be cheap. According to recent projections from Over the Cap, Ekwonu's fifth-year option will cost the Panthers around $18.42 million, which is based on the lineman's playing time throughout his stint in the league so far.

I don't think our front office is interested in bringing back most of these guys, including the 5 restricted FA's

Exception is Cade Mays, he's going to be re-signed and I think we're bringing back Austin Corbett on a 1 year deal to compete with Mays at OC. 

This would be a cheaper option that attempting to re-sign Brady Christensen

      As a Penn State alum I was excited to see everyone return, truth is I think we came into the year a bit over confident coming off last season. Had a slow start and poor depth at LB once Rojas went down, and once Franklin was fired the season was essentially over. From a character perspective DDS is a 10/10 guy, hardworking and incredibly loyal. Nobody expected him to return for his senior year, but he did to try win us a Natty. He also played the entire bowl game this year against Clemson which is rare to see as a high end senior prospect.

      Official Carolina Huddle Super Bowl LX Thread

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      Both of New England's TDs were scored when Maye went into "wing it and fling it" mode. As Deac said, when he did run, he ran well.  And, while some of the criticism of Sam Darnold may be warranted, Super Bowl history is littered with QBs who didn't light up the scoreboard but still came away with championships. Matter of fact, ever seen the list of Super Bowl winning QBs who didn't even throw a TD pass? Namath SB3, Griese SB8, McMahon SB20, Aikman SB28, Elway SB32, Roethlisberger SB40, Peyton Manning SB 50, Brady SB53.

      NFL.com mock draft: Panthers trade up for Reuben Bain

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Nope. Don't do that. We need an infusion of talent, not going all in one prospect. Especially a pass rusher. We already drafted two in the 2nd last year and they usually take 2-3 years of development. We should honestly try to add an impact vet there in free agent and focus elsewhere in the draft. We don't need more young developmental talent there. We have that. We need someone who can step in and add an impact day one.
