i got some bad news for you about the Panthers turf

I can not believe the new 800million non-sense upgrades doesn't include natural grass....... you still recall that soccer team wouldn't play on the field unless it was real grass and tepper did just that....then switched it back when they left, gotta have dem concerts as #1 priority....

I'll be for the new turf when they get Billy to do a stadium show once a year. 

Until then it's the worst thing that's happened to Charlotte sports since Ray Woolridge.

He was 97th in run defense snaps for edges with  (134).

So that’s 25 mill per for essentially a pure pass rusher. Jesse Minter said the key to unlocking Oweh in La was giving him freedom as a pass rusher. I knew right there we weren’t signing him. Evero gives no freedom

Yeah I like Phillips better, just needs to stay healthy obviously.

respectfully i disagree

a draft pick is a dice roll

Phillips is a known excellent pash rusher who can defend the run and is only 26. chances like this happen so rarely 

Agree.  I was speaking more to the "dollar to dollar" production being the crap shoot.

Meaning at $30 million a year, this guy better be a game changer / disrupter.  For that kind of money, he should be accounting for 15-18 sacks, 3-5 turnovers, and 2-3 touchdowns each season.

A draft pick, while not tested at this level yet, also isn't eating up a massive portion of our salary cap which we will probably need next year when replacing Bryce.

fair 

I agree 30 mill is a sticker shock but come next year when pass rushers are getting 35 mill a year his deal will look fine

Same thing happened with Jaycee and DB

MJ running the hornets has got to worse... and even George Shinn or Bob has to be....Jesus those are some awful "people". No wonder Charlotte sports are what they are after tossing in tepper...

Real grass is doable even with all the concerts. The hardest part of turf is doing any replacement of damaged turf and getting it to take root in time to be useable. Typical turf can take between 3-6 weeks depending on variety and weather conditions to really grab hold. Covering it for concerts and making sure it drains well enough to prevent ponding and soil deterioration are simple enough, relatively speaking.

The difference in the nitpicking is would you have to guarantee them $80m. Phillips could be elite but they paid him as if he already is. Huge gamble. I hope it pays off but this could blow up in the Panthers face and leave the defense starving for a pass rush and cash strapped too. 

I believe the data points to EDGE defenders hitting their prime right at Phillip’s age.

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. 

Yes. 4th highest pass rush pressure rate behind Anderson Jr, Bonnito and Parsons clears the impressive bar to me.

The Carolina Panthers had a total of 82 hurries last season...Jaelan Phillips had 60…

 

  • Carolina's 2025 Struggles: The Panthers defense finished "dead last" in total pressures during the 2025 season. The entire team combined for only 82 quarterback hurries.

 

  • Phillips' 2025 Production: Between his time with the Miami Dolphins and Philadelphia Eagles, Phillips recorded 60 hurries individually, ranking him among the top 5 in the NFL for that metric.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
