The only problem I see is that it leaves them with no one. Penix will not be back for training camp/preseason if at all.

Sounds like a step in the right direction for their new GM and that team. They took 2 shots and missed wildly with both last time. 

That's not a problem but an opportunity

What a legendary cash out by Kirk Cousins.

Right. From the way it reads if they keep him they are paying for the remaining 2 seasons of his deal.

I know that means they are probably not going to keep him, but that leaves their qb situation as injured Penix, Easton Stick and Kyle Trask. 

And no 1st round pick.

Either way you look at it, it's not a good situation.

So in the details, if he is on the roster 3/13, his salary for 2026 will be reduced to 2 million, with the 35 million difference being combined and guaranteed with 2027, and that is how they get to the 67.9 million guaranteed number that will be valid also on 3/13.

They have 2 months to figure it out or they pay Cousins 70 million, no matter if he plays or doesn't.

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      I think Dillon can be what Eric Shelton was supposed to be.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      Yeah, no way he's an option at 19. We could honestly probably get him in the 3rd round.

      I mean, on some level I get it. They want to know 100% for sure before they either extend Bryce or move on. I imagine the logic behind it is that if they add another weapon and Bryce doesn't show he can be a franchise guy then we'll be in great position to draft another QB and slot him into an offense with 3 legit WRs, a good TE and a solid OL. I don't think it's as simple as the front office trying to "justify" an extension for Bryce. If they're not sold on Bryce then they know paying him big money is a recipe for disaster and at that point just trying to please Tepper isn't going to save their jobs in the long run if they're stuck with a QB we can't win with. I think Morgan and Canales are just as uncertain on Bryce as the fanbase is. They see his limitations, but they also see flashes where he has managed to overcome them and look like a potential franchise QB. I think they're trying to avoid Bryce becoming the next Baker Mayfield or Sam Darnold and want to do everything they can to give him what he needs to succeed so that if/when the time comes to move on from him nobody can say "the Panthers were the problem" if he goes elsewhere and succeeds. And if we do end up having to bring in another QB in a year or two if nothing else they will have the pieces around them as well and can hit the ground running. I also think drafting a WR in the 1st this year would be as much about missing on XL as it would trying to justify extending Bryce. Personally I think we need to just count ourselves lucky to have landed a legit #2 WR as an UDFA in Coker (which helps negate the miss on XL in the 1st) and try to find a good slot receiver in free agency or the 2nd-4th rounds while focusing on defense and the OL in the 1st round.
