Before I cut Norwood, I would float a trade proposal to the Steelers to see if I could get anything for him (7th round pick)... the guy was made to be a 3-4 OLB.

Or better yet, I'd float that trade to the Skins - they would probably give up a 3rd round pick for him... LOL

I wouldn't be surprised if Jordan Senn got cut. Yes he is a LB, and yes we lost some key guys there. However he has been flagged for penalties in at least 2 of 3 games and he is only a special teamer. We signed that special teams ace from Baltimore at LB, so it wouldn't hurt us to cut him. But that's only my opinion who goes IF we sign Jarmon.

Jarmon got lost in the shuffle of a change in defensive philosophy.

He became a player without a position they asked him to slim down to 270 to play OLB then in the asked him to bulk back up to 300 to play DE.

He was actually a pretty good 4-3 DE/DT and based was starting to come on as a 3-4 DE.

If you look at snaps per play he was one of our better DEs last year. (profootball prospectus)

But we signed Barry Cofield, Stephen Bowen and drafted a 3-4 DE and a NT.

So we traded him and got good value: a starting WR.

      Is AJ Dillon just a camp body?

      I think Dillon can be what Eric Shelton was supposed to be.

      Yeah, no way he's an option at 19. We could honestly probably get him in the 3rd round.

      I mean, on some level I get it. They want to know 100% for sure before they either extend Bryce or move on. I imagine the logic behind it is that if they add another weapon and Bryce doesn't show he can be a franchise guy then we'll be in great position to draft another QB and slot him into an offense with 3 legit WRs, a good TE and a solid OL. I don't think it's as simple as the front office trying to "justify" an extension for Bryce. If they're not sold on Bryce then they know paying him big money is a recipe for disaster and at that point just trying to please Tepper isn't going to save their jobs in the long run if they're stuck with a QB we can't win with. I think Morgan and Canales are just as uncertain on Bryce as the fanbase is. They see his limitations, but they also see flashes where he has managed to overcome them and look like a potential franchise QB. I think they're trying to avoid Bryce becoming the next Baker Mayfield or Sam Darnold and want to do everything they can to give him what he needs to succeed so that if/when the time comes to move on from him nobody can say "the Panthers were the problem" if he goes elsewhere and succeeds. And if we do end up having to bring in another QB in a year or two if nothing else they will have the pieces around them as well and can hit the ground running. I also think drafting a WR in the 1st this year would be as much about missing on XL as it would trying to justify extending Bryce. Personally I think we need to just count ourselves lucky to have landed a legit #2 WR as an UDFA in Coker (which helps negate the miss on XL in the 1st) and try to find a good slot receiver in free agency or the 2nd-4th rounds while focusing on defense and the OL in the 1st round.
