Keeping Miles Sanders( even at a reduced salary) would be a huge, ‘WTF!!?

IDK, if he came back at a reduced price I wouldn't mind it.  He played well down the stretch last year and it would cross a need off

 

I don't even give inches 1% chance to stay here, even with them respecting his professionalism. Dan is just lip service on this, he's gone.

*unless they screwed up his contract. There was a 2 year out - POTENTIAL OUT: 2025, 2 YR, $13,200,000; $2,950,000 DEAD CAP. Best I understand its 5 million in cap space SAVED. Besides one game and few snaps, he's done less than UDFA level. He does blitz pickup great. Chubba just out ran him with weak or strong OLs.

Carolina can do better.

President of football operations and general manager Dan Morgan spoke with reporters from the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine on Tuesday. He was asked if the outcome of Super Bowl LIX, in which the Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Kansas City Chiefs through their overwhelming defensive line, served as a reminder for the importance of having a strong front.

“Yeah, I don’t think we needed the Eagles game to understand that,” Morgan said with smile. “I think, both sides of the ball, you have to win the line of scrimmage. You have to be bigger, you have to be tougher, you have to be more physical—and that’s what we’re looking to do around here.

“We’re looking to build that defensive line like we built the offensive line last season. Give the fans a good product on the field, give us a good product on the field. And we’re excited. We’re excited about the guys in free agency, we’re excited about the guys in the draft, and we think we can fill some of those holes.”

It definitely sounds obvious Dan Morgan wants to address the defense first and foremost (not a big surprise). But I wish he’d put on more of a poker face when he talks about his plans. He’s extremely easy to read and I hope a team who wants the same player we want (Jalon Walker) won’t take advantage of that. I’m hoping I don’t hear stories like last year when we told XL we were going to draft him. It’s good to hear that Morgan feels more comfortable as a GM in year 2. Hopefully it’s translates to quality draft picks. We desperately need it. Can’t wait for the draft.

He didn't say anything the whole league doesn't already know.

      Xavier Legette for Cole Kmet Straight Up.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
