He's got two more seasons and a bonus option left. Unless he absolutely balls out this upcoming season, there's no reason to even consider negotiations until it's time for the bonus option.

This right here. 

No agent is going to have his player sign an extension only 2 years into the league.  The OP is hypothetical poo that on works when playing madden. 

Just getting a read for who thinks he has it and who doesn’t.

Going into yesr 3 nobody can say for either way 

That’s what makes the hypothetical a gamble. Could win big. Could lose big. Personally, I think it’d be worth it to lock him in longer now and get the discount of projecting his growth. He’s 23. In confident by the time he’s 25, we’ll all be on board with him sticking around.

At this juncture we have hope for the future but that's it. Absolutely no reason to even consider something like this right now. And it should also be pointed out the entire reason for trading up for a 22 year old QB is to get maximum value out of their rookie deal. We've already invested upwards of $150 million in the oline. Are there people out there that actually think we can afford to toss out a 100 million dollar contract and still somehow field a competitive team with a black hole on the defensive side of the ball a unit btw that just gave up the single season most points in league history?

I try to give everyone here a little grace but threads like this just make me grumpy. Stupid.

If you could extend Bryce’s contract right now for 3 years, $30mil per year, would you do it?

Geno Smith is currently paid as the #19QB at avg of $25mil/year. 

#18 is Baker Mayfield at ~$33mil/year. 

You’re essentially betting on Bryce being a top 20 QB for the next 5 years. 

Upside: If Bryce plays as a top 10-15 QB, you have a steal and can surround Bryce with more weapons. Probably saving somewhere between $15-30mil per year by then. If you wait until after next season, and Bryce plays like he did at the end of last year, the price goes way up. 
 

Downside: If Bryce plays like Year 1 or early Year 2, you’ve locked yourself into 5 more years of it on the cap. 
 

So, if Bryce and his agent were ready to sign off on it, would you? 

 

 

I think a better question or before a extension, should the panther trigger his 5th year option??

 

Im a BY "hater" according to many, I do not know how to answer that given the 5th year is around 30 million.

Not sure why anybody who has watched the turn around thinks he doesn't have it. 

Seems a lot of people are dismissing just how incredible it is that he has turned it around.  Most would have mailed it in.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
