FA Splash: Panthers sign Jaelan Phillips EDGE

Yeah leading the Eagles in pressures after joining mid-season is impressive. 

is it? 

are we signing Carter and Davis too? 

Also "QB pressure" is kind of a squishy stat. 

This feels like they're overcompensating after missing out on that DT on day one of FA last year.

Sure. But 28 sacks in 5 years….thats basically scourton without upside  

thats a lot of money depending on how it’s structured. 

Scourtons pressure rate is half that, so your not even close... our defense didn't get sacks or pressures.  Conversion is also somthing that is more likely to experience regression to the mean. I'll take a guy getting pressure on 18% of plays and 5 sacks over a guy who lucks into 12 with a 10% pressure rate.

Sacks are a flashy state but at the end of the day thats 14-18 for an elite "producer"affecting 80 plays is a good thing.

My concern is the injury issue. 

He has missed a lot of games in his career.

Screenshot_20260309-145158_Chrome.jpg.28a70808b1807dedba6c6502193b43b0.jpg

he played all in 21, 22, and recent 25. 

Again the problem is concussions- he already retired once from them. He had 3 in college and recent one week 15 for iggles.

He needs the best helmet teppers money can buy...

What are the pressure and TFL numbers?

I honestly do not even know how to find those every place i see them listed are behind a pay wall and are not really considered real stats I guess.   I do know he was 25th in nfl in total sacks but hopefully he will be awesome for the panthers.

I mean....I guess. 

Panthers obviously needed a pass rusher. Just not sure its this player at this price tag with his injury history. Cap isn't real etc but that's an eye watering amount of money for him.

its 80 guaranteed ....... that's a load......hell is this more than the Cam contract?? It maybe the highest panther contract in history....I think that was around 110, but my brain is soup....

As of March 9, 2026, the highest contract in Carolina Panthers history by total value belongs to outside linebacker 

 

 (CB): $100 million (2025–2029)

  • A four-year extension signed in March 2025 with $70 million guaranteed.
  • At the time of signing, it made him the highest-paid defensive back in NFL history by average annual value ($25 million).

 

 

 

   remains the franchise leader in total career earnings from the team, having been paid over $127 million across his tenure. Other major historical deals include 
 
Taylor Moton's
 2021 extension worth roughly $71.25 million and 
 
Christian McCaffrey's
 2020 extension worth $64 million.

Oh wee mayne, that's a big concern as we well know from our experiences with Luke, our current GM, Oher, etc. Anyone who follows the fight game knows that once the concussions start piling up the chin just doesn't recover. Once that jaw is cracked it's a real tough row to hoe.

Can't argue that shrugs we are just fans though hope for the best, I watched a bunch of eagles games last year and he passes the eye test. 

Honestly not any worse than jaycee horn

The helmets don't matter, unfortunately.

Just like the tight neck compression things

Just like the mouthpiece and hyperbaric chamber that dan Morgan used. 

its like a weapon tho. I think there should be the same amount of padding on the outside as the inside. 

plus I seen one new idea-

    • Wow I can’t believe the panthers tried to trade up, failed, but still got the guy they wanted to trade up for. I wonder if anyone else has ever said that next you’ll tell me they had Hunter and Brazzell graded as first rounders. 
    • I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option is a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The pattern it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.  Probably should have been drafted day three anyway. The other was way over drafted.  
    • We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.
