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.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By jb2288 · Posted

      agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it.

      I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
