The Panthers MUST spend money in the next 2 years

The Panthers are 2nd in the league in NOT spending money (second only to the Raiders) over the last 2 years. Others have mentioned that we must spend 90% of the cap but the deadline is looming....2016.

Of course we have some big contracts looming so that helps. But the implication of the following article is that we need to spend and spend enough in the next 2 off seasons to get is up to almost 90% of the cap. So perhaps we may be compelled to shop at Macy's as opposed to Target or Tiffany's.

Can't remember the thread title, but this was discussed last week after David Newton had an article about it. 

 

A lot of old contracts/dead money meant we couldn't spend money. As the OP says, that'll change next year with Cam, then Luke, TD, Olsen possibly as well, and a potentially loaded 2016 FA class.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
