Evidence that D-Will will remain a Panther?

Per Rotoworld:

Over the past few months, Klis' colleagues at the Post have repeatedly painted the picture of Moreno as a third-down back under new coach John Fox. The gears changed Thursday, with Klis suggesting the Broncos will add a "1B-type" of back to "complement" Moreno. We're not sure what's changed, but it could be a realization that DeAngelo Williams will be tough to pry away from Carolina under a flexible cap with a 72-hour exclusive negotiating window. As we've stated all offseason, Williams may be the only available back able to beat out Moreno in a fair competition.

based on that train of thought....you could say that about every FA that one party hasn't expressed they want the relationship to end.

I think the author basically means that with our cap room we can outbid Denver and they've assumed that we will do whatever it takes to keep D-Will....not a correct assumption IMO...

I agree. But Carolina has a history of investing in guys when they should be parting ways. The reason the Patriots are so good isn't b/c they draft great with there 1000 draft picks.....it is b/c they say good bye at the right time (even to big names and fan favorites) and bring in new blood through FA imo. Belichick would have made sure Williams got traded last year.

They release players when they are starting to head down hill, which imo, DeAngelo is still climbing due to not having a ton of miles on his tires for this point in his career.

I hope nobody misunderstood and thinks that I believe we're better off with DeAngelo. I think our team is much better with him here and hope they can retain him. I just believe that this authors assumption that we will pay DeAngelo whatever it takes to keep him is incorrect. I feel 100% confident we will offer him a fair and generous deal whether he accepts fair and generous market value is another question....

I don't see how this is actual evidence.

It's not. (Thanks for the ? mark i requested in title). But, you can reasonably assume if this reporters source is reliable, then they don't believe that D-will will sign with the Broncos if Hurney is given time to negotiate with him. I don't think D-will really wants to leave and if given a reasonable offer he will choose to stay.

      Tomorrow is a must win

      If we lose tomorrow we’d have to sweep the Bucs in order to get into the playoffs. With a loss tomorrow the Bucs would then hold the tie breaker if we finished tied If we can’t split with NO then we sure as hell not sweeping Tampa It’s win or go home tomorrow in my eyes  Biggest game since 2017 playoff game imo

      Grok AI: No, there are no credible reports that the Carolina Hurricanes offered Jake Guentzel the same contract terms as Tampa Bay (7 years, $63 million total, $9 million AAV) before he signed with the Lightning. Reliable sources, including The Athletic, consistently reported that Carolina’s offer during negotiations was an eight-year deal worth $64 million ($8 million AAV). Guentzel did not accept it promptly, leading the Hurricanes to trade his negotiating rights to Tampa Bay on June 30, 2024, for a 2025 third-round pick. He then quickly signed the 7x$9M deal with the Lightning on July 1, 2024. Guentzel himself later reflected (in 2025 interviews) that staying in Carolina was his initial preference, but negotiations stalled and “didn’t work out,” with Tampa’s opportunity becoming a “no-brainer.” No reports from outlets like ESPN, NHL.com, or insiders (e.g., Elliotte Friedman, Pierre LeBrun, Frank Seravalli) indicate Carolina ever matched or offered the Lightning’s exact terms—total money, AAV, or length. The extra year was Carolina’s key advantage, but they reportedly stuck closer to $8M AAV and moved on when Guentzel explored options.
