The question is what is he worth, and he is definitely worth a 1st and 2nd.

What we will get may be totally different, you would be totally foolish if you don't think that 25 or so other teams aren't seriously considering looking at him.

I bet Gross makes himself the highest paid o lineman in the league this year, so that we can franchise Pep, and trade him.

Hurney will have to break the bank to get the Gross deal done in time.......

IMO we will either see him walk for nothing...and all of us will freak, or we get a 1 and a 4.

According to Gross himself, money wasn't the issue last year, they were very close. Of course, there's gonna be more this year due to the circumstances, but it should be negotiable. The problem is what was the issue last year and will the Panthers concede? I don't think they are in too good a bargaining position...

Last season they were trying to pay him as a RT, after a stellar year at LT the price goes up....

Toss in Peppers and Gross knowing that they can't use the franchise tag on him again......price goes up

All Pro nomination....up goes the price

Etc...

one thing I'm trying to wrap my head around is if a team trades for him, are they allowed to restructure his deal?

because 17 million is a hell of a lot for anybody, and that could definatley play a role

Sure. Players get traded all the time and work out new deals. Kris Jenkins is a perfect example.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
