I’m ready for the “fun”to start

I have a feeling the big move was Jaycee Horn. Also they want peoples engagement and I have been at this long enough that when a person on twitter say “Panthers are gonna do this or that” I know it will likely not be this or that but they want you to remain engaged.

Jaycee is averaging 22.5 million per year (with the 5th year factored into the 4 year extension) and Godwin is 29 coming off a big injury making 22 million per season 

Don't think you can compare the two contracts... different positions with different markets for each position

He reportedly left $22M on the table from another team which would have paid him $88M.

and then the Bucs only guaranteed 2 years--What a cheap shot move by the GM.  It should have been all guaranteed for that large of a hometown discount.

Horn was a big move, but we are gonna make a few statements today and this week

But they really did not make a big deal about it.  AND resigning your own player who was in negotiations recently is not that big news story to me---

Some of these draft experts say stuff like that on Twitter for each market to get people to use them for their sources of info; that could be it, but I doubt that because it costs you credibility.  I think we are going to sign a DT and maybe a S today

One negates the other. If Horn is on him Godwin will have to work hard to earn his money against us.

Those are my thoughts too.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
