"Newton's 2016 cap value ranks 10th among quarterbacks at $19.5 million.

He ranks behind New Orleans' Drew Brees ($30 million), Manning ($24.2 million), Roethlisberger ($23.95 million), Atlanta's Matt Ryan ($23.75 million), Flacco ($22.55 million), Detroit's Matthew Stafford ($22.5 million), Rivers ($21 million), Dallas' Tony Romo ($20,835,000) and Washington's Kirk Cousins($19,953,000)."

Damn, I love G-man. MVP less of a hit that Stafford, Romo, Ryan, Manning (the sucky one), and Kirk frikin Cousins.  Ha!

Extending Cam last year and adding a $7.5 million roster bonus to the last year of his rookie deal (2015) helped a lot. The next five years he will make $19.5 million, $21.167 m, $21.5 m, $23.2 m, and $21.1 million. Even Cam's most expensive year of $23.2 million is still below Breesus, Eli, Rapelisberger, and Matty Icemelt's earnings this year

I also credit Rivera and staff for creating an atmosphere these guys take pride in and want to be a part of. The things you have seen take place with our FAs and the words you hear from Jarred Allen are a direct result of this. The next time you hear someone trumpeting some jackass  to join the team realize what an important role team class and chemistry plays.

How incredible to be a fan of a team where I love and root for the GM just about as hard as I root for the biggest stars among the players!

DG is a rockstar.

Gettlemans a blessing for this team hes hands down the best gm in the nfl and turned us around big time.  Cant wait to see who we pick for the draft

He was in the first year of his deal. Most of those players are not. 

You do realise that newer contracts usually mean more money thanks to inflation and an ever rising Cap. He signed a deal comparable to Matt Ryans, and that contract was written 2 years prior. After Cams MVP season its a flippen bargain. Cant wait to see what Luck signs for. Irsey was already prepping the fan base for some biggest mega contract ever, like thats something to be proud over.

I havent seen Luck's name uttered since like... week 8 of the regular season.

re: an actual good article from david newton, he's a good writer. just don't expect him to know what he's talking about when it comes to things happening on the field. he only knows what those people actually watching and who know what they are talking about who aren't tired of answering "what just happened?" tell him.

about this article....yeah, makes me all kind of happy. hurney magic would have had him the top paid every year and/or backloaded to the point of crippling the team. this isn't a trash hurney comment, just a happy comment that we don't have a guy that feels it necessary to overpay and doesn't have us in the situation that the saints are in. i love being on the outside looking in at that contractual dumpster fire.

      Looking like it might be game 7 for Pitt and Phi. Philly is spent. I like more rest for the canes

      Moton Meets the Press

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Moton is the man through and through. 2 things I'll always give Gettleman credit for, 1 is drafting Moton, the other is building a SB contending roster and blowing it up in one off-season

      The Carolina Huddle

      Kurb is still alive and well.  I’m still friends with him on all of the social media.  He truly is a great man!  That’s my bro!  He always looked out for me since the early days of the huddle.  It definitely makes me sad that he just quit posting here, but that’s life.  He still shares his takes on social media and X, but a lot of the huddle vets just grew tired of this format and the environment, I guess?  It’s a lot of guys that were valuable contributors here that just stopped posting but are still alive and passionate Panthers fans.  Blindsite used to post huge write-ups and was a well-respected poster and then just disappeared.  We had one of these type threads several years ago and he checked back in and explained he just lost the motivation to stay active here.  It was amazing hearing from him again…   I signed up in 04 after coming over from the Charlotte.com boards and been here ever since.  (For those that don’t know - this is Proudiddy - had to change the name very recently due to ‘ol tootsie roll penis and the bad press 😂).  I’m forever thankful for all of you, even those who I haven’t had the greatest history with, I still appreciate yall.  Many have come and gone, both figuratively and literally, and that has put a lot into perspective over the years.  I went from a young, newly married, wide-eyed twenty year-old guy with a baby on the way, to a now forty-two year-old guy, recently divorced and newly re-married guy with my oldest baby now an adult and 5 more kids since.  And what ride it has been!  You guys have been a much bigger part of my life than I really care to acknowledge.😂
