Happy to keep him but definitely risky to make him the highest paid CB in the league and give him the 2nd most guarantees behind Surtain... Obviously when on the field he's an absolute stud and deserves it, but I would've liked to see him string a few healthy seasons together before giving him the big deal. 

Very risky he has played in 37 out of 68 possible nfl games. Hope it works out for the panthers if his health stays like its been being panthers will pay him 27mil per game.

Should have resigned him last offseason while his value was at an all-time low...

I’m sure he was very eager to sign a deal at that time. We need to get you involved in player negotiations asap!

highest paid DB....so far.....

Lots of guys are about to get paid, we just set the market. 

...That's actually a very, very valid point. It's much better to get this deal done before the others got their bag, and the price tag shot up.

When Horn never would have signed.  Gotcha. 

He knows his value. The $$ he got is not out of line. It’s the cost of doing business. 

Just y’all wait until the Ickey train gets rolling. The move him to RT people miss the fact that he is not going to take anything less than LT money.

With the rate he was getting injured, wouldn't have been the worst decision for him to accept a 4 year, $60ish million contract for financial security

giving up the opportunity to make 40 mil more just a year later would have been a terrible decision.  even if he got hurt again last year he could have easily gotten 15 on the open market.   and his dad is Joe Horn, he's not broke.

It was a tough position for us to be in. I'm not really angry about it I like Jaycee. I would rather have him than not. But there is the very real reality and possibility that a contract this size given his injury history could become an albatross for us. There's also the reality that our defense was dead last in rushing yards. We seem to be prioritizing building the defense backwards from the way the rest of the successful teams have. I'll just have to see what we do for the rest of free agency and the draft. I said all along this could be one of the most consequential offseasons in many years. Dan Morgan is going to make or break us for good. I'd certainly obviously much rather he be successful. But I've seen similar stories play out here over the years as a tortured Panthers fan. Time will tell.

    • It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ    
    • I don't know. CMC is like others and may have lip serviced that line of " I had no plan or wanted to leave Carolina" I think he even said he bought a house too and wanted this to be home.   Here's what I heard- In a way Panthers org gave him a test and he didn't "fight" back. They approached CMC and told him they wanted to put him on IR since the "season" was over or out of playoff reach. CMC didn't fight it one lick and agreed. They secretly wanted him to kept playing or want to, but there was no kickback. I honestly don't know if its real or not, 5th hand information type deal doing on. Yes he had bruises and pains, but was able to play...... but went along with Panthers staff. Odd to be playing games with star players, but whatever....   Plus the staff doctors found out about his tendinitis and there was nothing to fix it. Even with him missing time, it was the best move to trade him before he got inflamed constantly.    Lastly, its mostly time a combo of stuff, Fitterererere did not sign him to be the highest paid RB. That was classic Marty "give me a" herniay doing. GMs have different values on roster spots and rumor was Fitterererer was one that didn't want to pay RBs. For all his faults, he's right about that......
