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

      I mean, no I’m not going to panic when he got 2 Qs and looked great in 1 and looked not great in another (let’s not mention the drop).    Yeah we finally have a team that would be considered average offensively around him. Let’s roll this season.

      The woe is me everything but Bryce sucks mantra is stale af my friend. Look nobody here is going to argue with the fact Frank Reich was not a good head coach. At the same time. Bryce Young is now in his second season with his second coaching staff and a handpicked young offensive head coach who has been known for working with QB's such as Baker and Geno. As far as the offensive pieces around Bryce we have the 4th highest salary cap allocation (that might be even higher now after the new Moton deal) dedicated to the OL in the entire league. We have 2 first round WR's one of them 8th overall the first time we've ever selected a WR that high in franchise history. And the fact of the matter is Bryce Young did not have a good preseason. It's not the first time it's happened either. We all hope to see he and the rest of the team flip a switch in week 1. But we should all be able to agree that the offensive performances we've seen from the entire QB room (Bryce included) in preseason was simply unacceptable.

      We have seen Bryce play… what… 9 games with AT BEST what one would consider NFL average WRs? You just can’t see the forest for the trees and keep going back to your lazy take of revisionist history.    he looked AWFUL Y1 with the worst coaching I’ve ever seen in the NFL and one of the weakest WR rooms I can recall. He looked awful first half of y2 and great second half of y2 with average coaching and average skill position. I don’t know where this elite talent argument even comes from.
