FA Splash: Panthers sign Jaelan Phillips EDGE


Recommended Posts

Didn't expect that. He's good when he's on the field BUT this is a huge gamble with him having injury issues. 

Now I'm super curious who we bring in a LB. Definitely not Devin Lloyd anymore, we basically just gave that contract to Phillips just now.

6'5" 267. Turns 27 years old in May.

He hasn't really had much sack production in the NFL besides two decent first two years in Miami? Maybe he's gotten a lot of pressures or something.  Definitely feels like Morgan/Evero are projecting him to become a game changer in the future

Probably not signing any huge names after that move.

Yeah that’s my worry with him 

His torn his Achilles and ACL so far

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
