Think it's set up to really be a one year deal, guaranteed money from signing bonus and first year salary low. Cap hit probably 6m or so. Leaving the Panthers with around 19m in cap, so 7m to work with after rookies are considered.

No, don't think so as rap reporting it as well.

12m for rookies, #1 pick is nearly 8m itself.

Need 12m for rookies, so gives the team about 16m left over after that counting Shaq deal

He's saying he turned down a 133m fully guaranteed deal from the Ravens and reports are coming out that he also turned down a deal that had an aav over 50m. He's going to end up playing on the franchise tag in Baltimore. Lol

Tuttle will be the 3-4 nose, mcall will back him up I imagine. Then you've got Brown on one end and YGM on the other as starters. Edge you've got Burns and a bunch of ? marks that could make a huge impact in the new defense. Ilb seems set with shaq and Chinn. Just need depth at corner and on dl from draft and FA unless you can get a good vet for cheap. Offense needs help though at TE, WR and RB. I think they've done a lot to improve the middle of the defense today

That's not counting rookies. I expect them to target, wr, de/te and rb in the draft if they can't bring Forman back on a good deal. Got to get a cb and either de or te somewhere in fa. I'd expect they get a younger raw free agent Edge rusher in FA to pair with Burns on the outside and get a cheaper vet to fill out the other 3-4 end.

The rookie qb is starting and a vet will be signed as a backup. Corral will be stashed on PS or out right cut after preseason is finished.

With the details of the deals today being out, counting the deal with Thompson (which i have saving the team 8m in cap space, could be even more than that actually). Panthers should still have 20m in cap space left.

Imagine the chaos on this board if the Panthers actually took Anderson first overall. Yeesh

To give up that much capital to move to #1 and then release you would be willing to trade down tells me that you aren't taking someone who's gonna go 1 or 2 on most boards. I think it's AR.

It's not just about weight, it's also about playing style and other factors as well.

His playing weight is more 315-320 and not 300.

Rodgers to Jets is done per Trey Wingo. No one else is saying it's done. Weird person to break if true.

Chinn will be ILB and be asked to put on weight to play it. It keeps him near the line as a run stopper which he excels at and limits the deepness of his coverages

I said it before the Panthers traded up that I wouldn't be surprised if AR is the first qb taken... Still wouldn't be surprised. All 4 top qb's have major nfl ?. Richardson has the highest ceiling and after the combine wasn't going to be available at 9. Couldn't go to 3 because Chicago was trading out and Houston might like AR more than Young. So.....move to #1

With the extension and reworked deal to Thompson, Panthers had around 30m in cap space going into today. Quite a bit is tied up for draft picks and the Forman and Bozeman potential deals, so no big names. Also would be surprised if they went after one of the two tight ends in FA because of the cost. Also the trade with Chicago can't be official til the 15th, so technically the 10m from that trade isn't available yet either.

Not worth 16m aav.

Word is he is wanting 16m a season aav

4 years 110m dollars 60m guaranteed. Base salary first two years fully guaranteed. Roster bonus in year 2 for 10m. 20m signing bonus Season 3 roster bonus of 15m, only guaranteed for injury before day 3 of 2026 leage year. Team out before the roster bonus with 10m ish dead cap space. Ends up being either a 2 year deal for 45m dollars or a 3 year deal worth 76m

Trade back with Arizona for 2 seconds and 2 thirds plus 3 and still take Stroud. Arizona wants a DE Houston wants Young Then fill the wr room and 3-4 edge with the extra picks

To give his input to rhule and help run scouting and the draft preparation, but make no mistake Rhule had 100% roster control as it was in his contract.

You do realize that before this off-season, that Rhule had total roster control, right?

What about a stud TE? Rookie qb's like those.

For those wondering about wr, we had staff at Odell workout today.
