Jordan Gross ??

Recommended Posts

While lots of fans are talking about franchising Peppers and trading him in order to get something .

What about Gross ?

Gross has not signed ,and if Panthers franchise Peppers ,Gross could turn down all offers and walk . With nothing in return.

Gross leaves

Peppers gets Franchised and traded

Now PANTHERS have $$$$$$$ of cap money

Gross may not want to get signed ,

So in theory Panthers could easily lose both

This is actually something to think about. While I too think Gross will be signed, if he isn't and the Panthers find this out early and they need to tag one of the two and trade them who do you tag and trade? IMO you tag and trade Gross. Where I doubt any team will give up 2 1st round picks for Pep I think multiple teams would give up that much for Gross. Propably not the better player but he has more value right now.

Depends on whether the draft/free agent class is deeper in tackles or DEs. My sense is it's the former but I could be wrong.

Being forced to use the franchise tag on Peppers would all but guarantee that Gross gets the contract he wants, or at least close to it.

    • Do you even know what the term "below average" means? Because I'm genuinely not sure if you do. There are 32 QB's in the league, which means to be playing "above average" he'd have to be the 15th best QB at the league, and even then, that's in essence the "average NFL QB" still. Even going by these rankings, which have him 20th, that by itself is the definition of "below average", and that's before you consider there are multiple QB's ranked below him in this list that I'd 100% trade him for in a heartbeat. Again, no matter what you think the eye test tells you, he's made 28 starts and has a grand total of FOUR games over 247 yards.  Drake Maye has made 10 starts, all with a significantly worse group of pass catchers than Bryce has had, and he already has 3 games over that number himself. I don't need to see or know anything else beyond that to determine he is a below average QB in this league so far and I don't know how anyone can honestly argue against that.  If he was a Lamar Jackson type putting up 75+ yards rushing on a consistent basis, then you can look at those passing yards differently, but that's not the case here. Could he still improve and get to average or better?  Of course. But you're trying to extrapolate a few throws/drives/moments from a handful of games and trying to say that makes him even an average, if not above average, QB in this league.  Which is just nonsense when the players you're comparing him to have played at that level for full seasons or their entire careers.

    • Who says no to the following.  Trade KK and Morrow for a draft pick of some sort.  Sign the following:  Bennett 8m AAV Ekblad 8m AAV Boeser 7.5m AAV Marner 13m AAV Cap numbers work after the trade of KK and Morrow.
