DK Metcalf Requesting Trade

They have been trying to get something done since late oct per Kaye, that fact that its march 5th and we havent heard anything except morgan saying they are close is a bit unnerving to be honest.  I mean how hard can this possibly be?  Agree to the length, work on the yearly avg, figure out the guaranteed part.  Each side has to make concessions within those parameters.

Ramsey is making 24.1m. I can't see paying Horn that

That's a very concerning injury history to be the highest paid player on the league at a premium position.

Dude has not played one full season..... and the years he has played the most got hurt right at the end and wouldn't have been available for the playoffs.   Yeah no way on he'll you make him the highest paid corner. Let him play his option year and tag him if he plays 17 games.

Certainly feels like thats the plan

As bad as the rest of the defense has been its the only thing that makes sense, availability is often the best ability and while he has been excellent when healthy he's played less than 50% of the games since being drafted.....

 

It also let's us see if we take steps forward this season, if we don't there isn't much point in having an elite corner.

"Contract talks between the Panthers and cornerback Jaycee Horn are continuing, with both sides interested in getting a deal done. Coming off his first Pro Bowl, Horn is believed to be looking for a contract in line with some of the highest-paid corners in the league, with an average annual value of $20 million or more."

 

I'd pay him around 20per and just hold my breath after that

20 is probably close to the franchise tag, in a couple years it could feel like a bargain.

I am guessing he is going to want a new deal immediately.   I am thinking he is in the 25m/per range and with horn supposedly wanting top money not sure if we can afford both.  But if you can, and he is only a 4rth then hell yeah do that just dont think the cap works like that for us

I am starting to get worried about Horn. Metcalf is only 27.  If I had to choose, I think I would be looking to trade Horn for Metcalf.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
