The Gutfather


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

so everyone is caught up in training camp reports and worries about depth etc, but with the roster we have now, we are, I think, sitting in the top 5 of the league over 4 of the next 5 years in available cap space at somewhere between 24 mill and 27 mill.

A.  I don't know how dated these figures are, but

http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/cap/  shows out top 51 having 27.4 million available this year.

http://overthecap.com/salary-cap-space/ has us at 24 million available this year, 47 mill next year and  almost 100 mill the year after that.

Now I'm no expert on this kind of thing, and may be wrong, so if I am, I will gladly eat my crow pie.

 

But we have Cam and Luke locked up, and despite needing to sign a bunch of stars in the near future, somehow the Gutfather has put us in position to sign them.

BTW, we have 4 picks in the top 3 rounds of next year's draft.

This man has to be NFL Exec of the Year at some point.

With his track record on acquiring talent...

anyway, back to enjoying the pre-season.

He was this past season, at least according to one publication.  (Sporting News?)  I don't think there's any other official award?

I'll see what I can find on Google and link it here.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction
