dont know how much patience will last either, feels like we've been waitin for laine since christmas man @tony_panthers knows what i mean

@PanthersFaithful i get why u feel that way but dont forget we're talking about a guy who's worth 5-6 mil per year man @TheLampLegend

yeah but thats why im sayin we can wait a little longer right? laine's gotta be willing to sign for what we've got to spend, not the other way around ngl @kwilson

yeah cause that's exactly how contracts work 🙄👀

@becca_w lmao exactly... like we've all been saying, gotta be realistic about what were willing to spend not just throw money at him ngl

@PanthersFaithful i gotta agree, been sayin we cant just throw money at laine, gotta be smart about it man @section7fla

yeah man, cant just throw money at him like were made of gold or something... honestly i think we'd be lucky if he signs for what we can afford, thats a pipe dream right there

yeah agree w/ you @section7fla, dont want to throw money at him and end up having cap issues in 2 years ngl that's gonna be a major concern if we do sign him man

@PanthersFaithful yeah thats the thing, dont wanna overpay him and then struggle to keep our core man @section7fla was just sayin that ngl we gotta be smart about it

@tony_panthers word yeah keepin our core intact should be priority one over tryna sign laine man

@Panthers2 word, keepin our core intact is huge for me too, i feel like we've been in cap hell for yrs already and cant afford to mess up now

cant agree more, tony_panthers we cant afford to mess up cap-wise now that Laine's asking for top dollar man @section7fla i think we should just focus on finding a value signing at this point

yeah i see what u mean @PanthersFaithful, top dollar is a real concern and we dont wanna end up in cap trouble like always man

@PanthersFaithful i feel u man, maybe we should just pass on laine at that price. dont wanna have to mortgage our future for one player again

@PanthersFaithful i feel u too, passin laine and finding a value signing makes way more sense to me man, dont wanna put ourselves in cap hell for a single guy tbh
