Pretty sure that’s baked into the trade.  If it’s expected the player needs a big new contract, the trade value of said player dips a bit.

It will still be costly tho.

That would be the most I would give up for him. I still would not feel good about the trade after.

Nah hell no, swap 1sts and 2nds and call it even since we are paying a massive contract. 

 

I think Panthers can get or just play hard ball. This is his 2nd str8 tag, not many teams have or want to give millions right now to some #2 WR. 

They need to pay Chase 40 million per. 

IDK, I'd still lean on youR favorite movie= tmac at 8th.....

If it were me and I was hell bent on not going defense at 8 I would be trying to trade the pick to the highest bidder. There are wr's that are better fits for us later in the 1st.

Not crazy about trades buuuuut… we are seemingly incapable of drafting/developing WR talent.  This seems to be our only way to get a known commodity at the position.

They need to avoid the 2nd round curse. Just take one in the 3rd or later until you hit on one.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
