Podcast will the Panthers give Young 2027 option plus DC approach with Yoing

[CarolinaLivin]

Honestly doubt they do 5th year option. But completely in the realm of possibility he is our starter next year. 

[CRA]

The plan/change/philosophy seems problematic….when a good or just not bad rushing defense shows up.  Also highlights why Tepper should throw that picture and thought process in the trash

I mentioned this in another thread but i'll restate it here.

Keeping a wait and watch approach and passing on the 5th year option kinda makes sense like obliquely, but in practice neither the team or the player wants it. The player (and unions) doesn't want to risk injury a career ending injury in his 4th season when he could have at least another year locked up, and the team doesn't want to risk the player blowing up in their fourth year and holding them over a barrel in contract negotiations. If you're the QB and you're playing that well you obviously test the free agent market, and you'd probably be bitter about it as well. 

modern first round qb contracts are essentially 3 year deals with the option of an additional 2 to put downward pressure on contract extensions. You either pick up the 5th year, extend with a new contract, or move on. 

just sitting tight on the fourth year isn't a practical choice for any of the parties.

its only been done once to my knowledge in the modern era

It would be a mistake barring massive improvement to pick up that option. He is so replaceable. 

If he trends slightly up this year, I'd use our second round pick on a QB AND pick up an FA to complete. I'd use the first on defense.

If, as I think is likely, he continues being serviceable at best and we finish like 6-11, then use the first round pick on a QB.

I'd honestly rather sign Mac Jones as a bandaid.

5. Dave C and Izik frustrated by early turnovers and offensive execution failures wasting  well designed plays so, DC changed his philosophy and approach  to establish the run  don’t do anything crazy    don't do innovative   plays early   Backs this up with comments from DC and BY plus, as he says ‘you see it on the field.’

LMAO this should have been from day 1, wtf?

Well, fug it. Offer them a 5th rounder or something. I'd rather do that than pickup Bryce's option.

Bryce is Teppers Mexican step son. He will stay by him no matter what.

They have to decide to excersise the 5th by May 1 of players 4th year, so they have to decide soon.

I think this is most likely. I imagine it'll be handled same as Baker in Cleveland

Tepper thinks little Bryce is Tom Brady in the making... damn, if that doesn't track. LOLOLOL

Just wait. There's no pressing need to do anything right now. If Bryce continues to be an effective game manager, consider picking up the option to buy us more time. But no one should be surprised if he takes another slide when we don't have a RB putting up GOAT type numbers.

30 mill for a year of qb play that almost any fa qb could give the panthers seems like a waste of money but its not my money.
