Wanted an extension for him last summer - would have been much cheeper. But happy with the way it turned out. Seems like a fair deal for both parties

Is there anything out there saying that the FO made no effort to extend him last offseason?

This. Until we see the full structure of the contract, we don't know the cap hit for this year. $9.75M paid out this year doesn't necessarily mean a $9.75M cap hit. In reality, it hints that the cap hit will likely be much lower than that due to the signing bonus being paid out immediately, but spread out over the duration of the contract.

Madden helped me understand that stuff

God I hope we don't keep using this traitor when we want to show approval for our team.

Just a picture.  Make one about Trump if you're so easily offended or disappointed.  

To the OP, I'm very glad we were able to keep Addison for a modest price.  He's happy, we're happy, a strange thing in NFL free agency!

Walter Football is wrong about the "just one strong season" bit.  Mario had a very solid 2015 as well.  It would be interesting to look at some numbers of sacks / pressures per snaps played...  I'd bet Addison is pretty near the top of the list.  His kind of production in a limited role makes this a very good signing.  I'm pleased.

This is a solid contract, but not a great one. Addison has enjoyed just one strong season, so what if he can't reproduce what he accomplished in 2016? Also, he turns 30 in September, so he could decline soon. That said, the Panthers needed to keep him around, so they did a good job retaining him.

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
