Looking at Jersey Prices as Indicator of Who Will Be Back

Was just watching the NFLN about McNabb's benching... They talked about the report that like 2 days after McNabb was benched that his jersey was discounted in the team store (along with Albert Haynesworth, who's jersey had been discounted for weeks now).

So, IIRC, our team has done similar things before with players that wouldn't be bac. Or at least I know we've discussed that here before. Anyway, I looked through our team store and all the jerseys of the main guys we're worried about are regular priced.

Only discounted jerseys we have in our team store are of guys that are already gone. I know this is reaching, but hey, we're on our way to 1-15 and we've already discussed the draft ad nauseam...

Do you think this is a sign of security in terms of those guys being back? (DWill, TD, etc.)

No, contract talks are a sign of security.

You're right, but too bad our FO is working under a gag order and we don't know WTF is going on, so I have to look elsewhere.

I've seen Gambles jersey go on sale in spurts for like 4 years, so take that for what it's worth.

Well, I know sometimes they can become slightly discounted if there's only limited sizes left (like only available in small) until they get more in, but they do that everywhere, like Eastbay and all the big retail stores...

our crappy store sells "white" jerseys for cheap every year right after the superbowl, I got a Davis jersey for $25, they also sell Gamble, Marshall, at the time Jarrett..... any jersey they had in white was on sale, it doesn't mean poo, other then they might have too many and are trying to get rid of them

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.

      Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
