Remember guys...Oher is set to make over 7 million this season.  If he retires, Kalil is basically his replacement at 3 million more per year.  If Oher is cleared to play, we have a much improved offensive line.

Don't use logic bro, people on this site will poo themselves

Am I crazy for thinking this isn't that bad a contract? Ends up being 5 million a year if he doesn't work out. If he does work out were paying 11 million for a staple at LT. Left Tackles who can play aren't cheap, fellas.

Not crazy at all.  I agree with you.  Sadly several others on here hope kalil sucks so they can blame Gettleman and claim they were right.  True fans, aren't they?

I assume the structure of the contract allows for us to get out of the deal after 2-3 years with little to no damage. The breakdown is more important than the numbers we are seeing right now. It's probably more like a 2 year 20 million dollar deal with options.

No, you aren't.

It depends on how the contract is back loaded. The 5 million a year guaranteed is fine. I'd like to see the salary for the first three years. Could be as little as 7-8 a year until the contract is renegotiated and extended.

Lol people truly don't understand the free agent tackle market if they think this is a bad contract. 

I understand it's terrible, but this is a big contract hoping he comes back and becomes a franchise LT.

It's a need I'm sure Gettleman is nearly hanging himself for, but it had to be done. Hate to say we overpaid a player for the first time ever.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
