A look into the future

The year 2016.

Cam Newton is 28 years old, a 5 year veteran entering the time in his career when athleticism and experience intersect in their primes.

Kelvin Benjamin is entering his 3rd year as our #1 WR, having learned the fine points of the game under Ricky Proehl and has developed chemistry with Cam.

We are out from under Deangelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart's contracts.

Kony Ealy is entering his 3rd year and has been molded in the same form that Rivera and Washington molded the Kraken, which has allowed us to climb out from under one or both of our current DE's contracts.

Luke Keuchly is 25 years old with 4 years of experience anchoring our defense.

Star Lotulolei and KK Short have continued to progress with 2 more seasons of experience.

The young guys on the roster have either sank or swam. Melvin White, Tre Boston, Tavarres King, Marvin McNutt, Bene Benwikere have all either performed well and earned a roster spot, or have been cut.

 

Kugbilla has seen the field and he and Silatolu, Turner, Chandler, and whomever else makes the squad have a few more years of experience together.

We've continued to patiently and quietly build the roster via BPA in the draft while filling holes temporarily in free agency until they can be filled permanently upon having enough cap room.

And now we have enough cap room.

Mark me down as a believer of this regime and managment.

I love the philosophy across the board. My kind of football.

Im sorry its not some's style and being extremly worried we do not have a proven LT is justified, but i really do have a hunch that gettleman knows what he has there. If bell or my favorite, chandler pan out at LT, then im gunna invite most of you to my place. Ill be cooking crow

And the Panthers fans continue the call a #2 WR?

 

Fast forward to 2027.  With 13 loyal seasons under his belt, battling triple teams his entire career, and wanting to retire a Panther Kelvin Benjamin is unceremoniously cut by and called a distraction with his constant pleading for a #2 receiver. The Panthers draft a receiver to be #1 with no #2 in sight. Got to love the Panthers front office!

...to resign Cam and Luke. Dunno how much is gonna be left over. It sucks we're essentially going to miss out on having the extra cap space from Cams rookie deal like the Seahawks did with Wilson due to all of Hurney's stupid contracts.

I'm confident that the cap situation and overall team talent will be better in 2016, but still.

    • This is a great episode I am soo excited for this season 😀
    • Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
    • At this point, I only care what he does in 2025.
