Still more cap room

About 3.75 million to be exact...

Panthers continue adding cap space

Quote

With the NFL salary cap set to see its biggest increase in a decade, we already knew the Carolina Panthers would have a nice amount of breathing room. On Thursday, they added a bit more.

Under the current CBA, each team has the option to carry over unused cap space from the previous season. The total carryover amount from 2015 is $203,963,112, so the average carryover per team is $6.4 million.

The official cap for the new league year hasn't been determined, but it's expected to rise by about $12 million from last season's $143.5 million cap. Once the new cap is set, the carryover amount and other adjustments from 2015 will be combined for each team’s official salary cap position.

I wish you could trade for cap space...Jacksonville, let us grab about 10 million of that. 

The rule is you can only trade cap space if you also agree to give up your knowledge of what to do with it.

That's an area where I wouldn't want to swap places with the Jags. Ditto the Browns and the Titans.

How the hell did the Browns carry over 20 mill. I though the cba said you had to spend a certain percentage of cap every year,

There are things in this life I've decided it's better not to try and figure out.

How the Cleveland Browns operate is one of those things.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
