Tender Kalil and Johnson?


MHS831

Recommended Posts

johnson isnt worth the first and third tender either. nobody in their right minds would give that up for him.

wether we believe a player is worth it or not, there is still a risk.

both kalil and johnson are very young. kalil is already a pro bowl top center in the league, and johnson did nothing but shine his first season as an every down starter.

both are worth mid-late first round picks to established teams who are looking to upgrade aging high priced vets.

Keep in mind that you have the right to match the salary offered by the other team or take the picks. So tendering Kalil and Johnson would not risk losing them unless they wanted to leave or there was a poison pill which is discouraged by the league.

Having a guy test the waters in free agency might be a good way of seeing how other teams in the league view them before we make a long term offer. We did it with Marshall last year and we all saw that although he wanted to be highly paid, no one else saw it the same way. It helped readjust what he was worth.

If you use the non-exclusive franchise tag he can negotiate with others but you get to match it or take the 2 first rounders.

wow...

So some people continue to think the CHARLES JOHNSON and RYAN KALIL are more valuable players than DWill...

s...m...h...

Remove Johnson from our DLine and how much pressure do we generate (thats completely disregarding his best strength - stopping the run)?

Remove Kalil from our OLine and where is the experience?

Remove DWill from our Running game and I think Stew and Goodson/Sutton cope Ok

Please do SYH.

A probowl center is worth more than a rb.

The best defensive lineman on the line is also worth more than a rb.

You can live in denial all you want to, but keep it to yourself.

oh, forgive me... How silly of me to think one can express their own opinions on an internet message board...

But, the way I see it, your post was not so much of an opinion but a critical anticipation of others' opinions. I personally would welcome your supported opinion.

Johnson will want to be in this system. It is tailor made for him to put up big numbers. Williams will likely be here as well. This is a much better situation than one where he will be the feature back and get overused and injured. Plus with his injury history right now I doubt people are going to be throwing money at him right now. He has played 19 games in the past 2 years. And he missed 10 games in 2010. Anyone think he gets huge pay day right now??

    • Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.  
    • This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
    • Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
