Travelle was excellent this year. No injuries. Great play and you never hear to much about the guy. However.... He is getting paid too much damn money. Now I know JR said their will be no major F/A acquisitions in the off season and I'm not saying he will need restructuring this season but something seems a little off here.

He made $7,400,000 this year and is currently the 9th highest paid player on the roster behind names like Johnson, Williams and Beason... The end year is 2013 and it was a 6 year 35 million dollar contract. Now we have a few big signing coming up after this year like Jonathon Stewart and Steve Smith. Even if we lose/restructure Otah is anyone else a little concerned? He is 30 years old and has plenty of years left but the offensive line is really starting to concern me. We have no permanent RG and questions at both tackles. Meh. Sorry late night rant.

Wonder what we can get for him via trade? He may also be open to a restructured contract.
In my opinion he is our 2nd best player on the line behind Kalil and tied with Otah (when he wants to play and skip the Bojangles...)... So I do wonder what we could get in a trade but if he's gone....

Healthy solid line = :cam:

Stank ass line = :jc:

If not he very well could be done imo. He rated out as a way below average G and he gets payed like a LT. I love the dude but he might not be here come TC.

Bernadeu seems to play well on the left side of the line also Garry Williams is also pretty solid. Which may mean Wharton is the odd guy out, idk how much he accounts for the cap though.

What if he won't restructure? I never hear much about him so I'm relatively clueless as to his personality and demeanor...

He's a team first guy, one of the ones who paid for this past off season's work out. I think he'd gladly do it. Not many guys expect their contracts to go to full term, it hardly ever happens. That's also a reason total contract value is very misleading.

Anyway you look at it he's getting paid a lot of money. This isn't Madden Franchise mode.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      Well, the whole rationale used  for the high IQ point guard is it would allow us to spend our resources elsewhere….instead it’s all our first rounders ever since to support the bad pick.  Reality is our front office is just bad.  If you wanted Bryce Young you were going to need to do something unique and special for him.  Instead we just insert a QB with traditional tools into old NFL concepts that pair with traditional talent and our pass game is whack

      Good to see some other folks are speaking the same language on this. It's simple common sense. But it seems like there's a disconnect due to the misplaced value the team has put on Thielen because he was the only vaguely good veteran WR willing to sign with the Panthers after we traded away DJ Moore. That time has come and gone. We have two first round WR's on the roster now.

      Yeah I’m turning this into a Bryce can’t play QB thread. Just stating that offense was a poo show two years ago. No QB is succeeding in that, much less a rookie. I feel like it’s become a common debate strategy on here to just jump down the rabbit hole of saying he is just bad in so many ways when any certain point gets countered. If that doesn’t work we can deflect to how poorly this team has been ran. In regards to the actual point we are debating, the OL was struggling, half of the skill players aren’t on a roster, Mingo has done nothing with his new team and the staff are either not coaching or on their 3rd team in 3 years, aside from McCown (I liked McCown too). Honestly about as bad as it gets. No need to try to state how good of an offense it was billed it because that has been proven false at this point.
