That's not totally correct, because 20m of his salary for 2028 becomes fully guaranteed on the 15th of March in 2027. Those cut numbers for year 3 don't include that as part of the dead money, which it would be. After the 15th of next March, his dead cap hit for 2028 will be 37.5m. I mean I guess they could theoretically cut him and have a dead cap hit of 37.5m and save 1m.... But I doubt it.

3 years 81.25m with 45m guaranteed (20m in 2018 hits March 15th of 2027) Will either be cut or extended in the 2028 off-season.

They'll back load his deal and restructue or cut after three years like all of the Panthers deals have been set up under Dan.

Everyone should ignore that 20m for inj as it's really fully guaranteed for all intents and purposes.

Fully expect Lloyd's deal to look similar in structure to Phillips deal.

That 20m injury is guaranteed for all intents and purposes as it hits next off-season for 2028 salary. If he's on the roster for 2027, he gets the extra 20m of salary guarantees for the 2028 season. Considering his dead cap for 2027 is 50m, he'll be on the roster to get the full guarantee switch. Otherwise the guaranteed money is in 2026 and 2027 salary plus signing bonus. Can be cut with cap savings after 3 years to what essentially could be a 3 year 81m dollar deal. (He's got a cap hit of 38.75m in 2027 and 2028.)

His arm's aren't long enough for Carolina scouting staff for what the coaching staff wants for in a TE. I don't think he'll make the cut to be a selection at 19.

I don't think Sadiq is going to be on the Panthers board and the beat reporters are giving away that impression by mentioning that he doesn't fit the physical requirements of the Panthers scouting staff.

Freddie with a huge save, empty netter for Stankoven

Marty party after Walker with a kick save... Didn't think I'd ever type that line out.

If you watch how Carolina scouts TE's and what measurables are needed to get past initial scouting... Would tell you that Sadiq most likely won't be on the Panthers board at all.

Well that changed really quick after those two saves by vasilevskiy on Svechnikov

First line playing with a chip on their shoulders, I like it.

Svechnikov and Aho with a hell of a start

Like the response by Jarvy ..... But yeah he probably shouldn't do that again.

Yeah before he played those last few games hurt, he was a damn mvp candidate easily.

What they thought he was worth. Injury issues plus the lack of sacks (even after joining Philly) probably the reasoning. He's probably a 20-25m per type of guy, so I don't think it's as massive of an overpay as many do. I mean Philly was willing to pay him 25-27m a season. I fully expect Carolina to move him around and even put him down on the line and even over center on obvious passing downs to get him favorable matchups for quick pressures while also allowing them to have Scourton, Jones and/or Princely on the field on passing downs.

Aho - Svechnikov - Jarvis.

They ranked him actually 34th, which is 9 spot behind Burns who was 25th in their rankings for last year among edges. Not a big gap on grade though 74 for Phillips vs 75.8 for Burns. How did they get their own rankings wrong??? Lol

From what I can say, Wallace will keep the green dot. I just say what I hear. lol

Lloyd next to Wallace gives them two lb that can blitz well and get sacks from inside as well as better coverage so they don't have to rely on Wallace to always drop into zone, they'll be able to get him downhill attacking the los more comparatively to what they did last year. Also adding Philips means Scranton sees less double teams and should open him up as a pass rusher and allows them to bring Princely on the field on obvious passing downs to rush the passer because they can move Phillips down onto the line in those situations. So on obvious passing downs the front seven will probably look like this majority of the time. Edge - Scourton Dt - Philips NT- Brown Dt - Wharton Edge - Umanmielen/Jones ILB - Lloyd ILB - Wallace

After he took over calling the defense he had 43 tackles, 2 sacks and 3 pd in 8 games. Not exactly bad numbers.

The current plan is for him to go into this season wearing the green dot and being on the field for a super high snap count. The team completely (along with the players) give him credit for the defenses improved play after he took over the green dot.

They like Wallace as the green dot and running the defense. Inside the building probably thinks LB is set.

Heard the team isn't planning on releasing Tremble, so they probably backed out of all of these.
