BREAKING: Adam Thielen Not retiring…

Again, dude signed a 3 year 25M deal. He averaged 8.3M per year. Why would you add more incentives when you have him under contract? Is your name Marty? I remember when out of respect he gave Greg more money and Greg didn’t earn a penny of it as he missed most of the last couple of seasons with injuries.

Thielen is not going to hold out. You don’t just kick more money to him when you don’t have to and he already got the signing bonus up front.

Let's other players in the league know we take care of our veteran leaders.

This is probably the best news possible for our offense this offseason. Early in the year he'll provide an important degree of continuity and we know he's helped Coker and others.  This is huge for the receiving corps. Yes, we need other weapons regardless but veteran presence is so important and he brings it in spades.

SMH. What other teams do this? Other players don’t care about Thielen getting more than his contract. They only care what we offer them and anything extra means we have less to spend.

Good to hear! AT has been the reason why the Panthers didn't need to draft another slot WR in McConkey and his contract has been incredibly team friendly as well:

2023 - $3.3M (61st highest cap hit for a WR)
2024 - $9.9M (16th highest cap hit for a WR)
2025 - $8M (29th highest cap hit for a WR)

I was team ladd too, but slot WR << X...which is what we hope XL becomes. That was about the only thing I came up up with favoring XL..

    • Not the biggest fan of PFF grades long but they made an interesting point on their commentary this week Bryce Young is presently per them one the worst “deep passers in the NFL” this year.   Which was the comeback narrative of being great at it.  But PFF deep is actually intermediate.  It’s 10 yards.   During his comeback he was able to get off those intermediate passes because of the big shift defenses went running man and blitzing.   where Bryce struggles the most to date is just being asked to stand in the pocket and throw into coverage.   And really struggles on top of that if folks start disguising stuff.  (This part is me….and his small stature and arm struggle facing that)  so I would expect people just don’t give him man.  Dial back the blitzing and just ask him to play into coverage with his arm.     
    • While I wanted Stroud I was ok with the Young pick. I didn’t judge. Not even his first year. No knee jerk reactions. Allowed time to watch him learn. It’s into year three and it’s time. He sucks. It’s true this franchise sucks too obviously with other players AND coaches doing much better after leaving.  Unfortunately it’s a severely dysfunctional franchise and the only thing that will save it is a true generational talent at QB that this inept FO actually lucks into picking or high priced elite vet if that is even possible who would come here over other places or Tepper selling or keeling over. Things that are just unlikely to happen.   The Panthers are literally the new age Browns.
    • I knew he wasn't long for the league the first time he went flying through the air like idgaf.
