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 tukafan21 · Posted

      Nobody is giving up a 4th rounder for a backup QB And anyone who needs a starter badly enough to where Bryce would then be their starter, is such a bad team that they're not giving up a pick likely to be about pick 105ish overall, instead of just dealing with a bad QB situation for a season and then drafting one in a loaded QB draft next year. I'm looking through all the teams right now and can't think of a single one that would be willing to part with anything better than a 6th rounder. Barring injuries (and excluding the Panthers), there look to be 10 teams who don't know with 100% certainty who their starting QB will be in 2027... Dolphins, Jets, Browns, Steelers, Vikings, Colts, Saints, Falcons, Cardinals, and Rams. Of those 10...  The Rams know it will be Stafford or Simpson.  The Saints more than likely will be sticking with Shough unless he takes a huge step backwards.  So neither are giving up any draft picks for Bryce right now, just wouldn't make sense for either. Down to 8 Given their current QB situation of having multiple QBs they already need to evaluate between this year, the Browns (Shedeur/Watson), Vikings (Kyler/JJ), Colts (Jones/Richardson/Leonard), and Falcons (Penix/Tua), wouldn't be giving up a 4th (or maybe any pick) to bring in another QB to muddy the waters even more. Down to 4 Dolphins just signed Willis and wouldn't want to bring in another small Alabama QB who has struggled after just dumping Tua instead of just rolling with Ewers as the backup.   That then leaves the Steelers, Cardinals, and Jets left as it's clear none of them have any idea who their 2027 could be as of right now.  But the Steelers would for sure rather just see what one of the 2 QB's they drafted in the last 2 drafts could become than give up a mid round pick for Bryce.  Same goes for the Cardinals in taking Beck this past weekend. The Jets would be the most likely team to even consider taking him on, but I think it seems very apparent right now given them rolling with Geno and now talk of bringing in Wilson to be his backup, they're punting on QB this year to draft someone next year, so why give up even a mid round pick for Bryce?

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      Honestly I am not sure Pickett couldn’t step in for him. But I don’t see a clear easy upgrade and we are not KC with Alex Smith we are a team that hadn’t done poo for almost ten years and just made the playoffs. And looked good in the game. That stadium atmosphere on that day…. you know Tepper ate that poo up. Not one drink has been thrown in a while.  You had better make sure if you replaced him after that that you had a sure fire upgrade.

      Makes sense. If Bryce is ass this year, we are probably drafting our new QB next draft and sitting him behind Bryce for a year
