RB, I can't speak for X-Clown but the fact that they would likely want a pretty high pick or picks for him in a trade if he is franchised (as I think he will be) and he likely would command a pretty good amount of money in a contract isn't really a risk that a lot of teams are in a position to take. Were he simply to become a FA, that might be a different story because then a team would be dealing simply with the dollars.

Bingo. It's not as if we are the Lions and need to start all over.

RB, to respond to your post...just because I'm against the Panthers going after the biggest "name" out there doesn't mean I'm saying there's no need to improve the quarterback position. The two ideas are not mutually exclusive. I'll say it again...the biggest "name" from last year was Derek Anderson. Would it have been a good move for the Panthers or any other team to throw a high pick or picks and a ton of money at him last year for his one good season? I'm pretty sure the Browns would like the option to travel back in time and have dealt him to the highest bidder.

I hope that we sign Gross to a long term contract and franchise Peppers. Peppers has more value on the Free agent market and will get us more draft picks. If we don't sign Gross long term I doubt we franchise him again. He had a good year but honestly I think we can replace him easier and actualy have 1 or 2 guys who could fill in for him. I can't figure out what more he wants. We have an offense which he flourishes in and he is already one of the top 5 compensated players at his position. I understand it is structure of the contract and language. Hopefully we can work it out which then leaves us with Peppers.

As for Philly, if Peppers really wants to go to a 3-4 that rules out Philly. Plus if Johnson doesn't recover it is hard to say what their defense will look like.

Housh is interested in Philly next year and they have TONS of cap space. they are going to be a beast next year anyway.

you put either pep or gross there and you have a return trip to the NFCCG.

not to mention that we play them next year.

i'm not crazy about their potential.

If your a team like the Eagles who have been dying to get a "freak" D-End for years, and havent been able too, also they have plenty of cap room, and a great pass rusher would make their defense top 5 easy, especially with that secondary and their blitz happy scheme...You wouldnt know who to stop..

Its like my Dad always says "How much something (or in this case someone) is worth is how much someone is willing to give for it." Or what I like to say "There's an A** for every seat"

      Are you arguing that his height deficiencies and footwork within the pocket have not been a present issue clearly seen on his game tape particularly in the games he struggled in? Because that's simply denying what everyone in this fanbase who have watched the games have seen. It's interesting how hardline BY fans here quickly and effortlessly pivot from whailing about being victimized to becoming the aggressor and hurling out allegations of bias and hatred. And at the end of the day while Bryce Young clearly improved significantly from the first two games of the season the reality of the situation is he still finished 42nd in yards per pass attempt behind Mac Jones and tied with Caleb Williams and 38th in passing yards per game behind the likes of Gardner Minshew Aidan O'Connell Drake Maye and Will Levis. Furthermore it took Bryce Young 23 games to surpass Panthers legend Kyle Allen's 13 games worth of passing yardage in 2019. So if your argument is he became a head and shoulders better passer over the course of the second half of the season the reality is we're still waiting to see that growth this season. And there is nothing controversial or vitriolic about saying so from the mind of a rational observer.

      Cam regularly threw for less than 200 yards and nobody questioned he was elite. He averaged 219 yds per game for his career.  You seem to be way too hung up on yards as a stat.  By that definition Jameis Winston should have been MVP by now.
