Oline was actually fantastic this year minus LT kalil. With a healthy CS and byrd wed be fine. Then draft ESB/Kirk whoever or sign a vet like crabtree

Honestly, I think a top notch vet is what we need.  Shepard is not a good mentor.   Funchess is still to young to be a leader.   We have zero leadership among the WR Corps.  Someone who can come in and teach as well as play.

I think this is very likely. Moron will end up kicking inside to take Norwell's spot now that Williams is establishing himself as a very good RT. We'll draft another OT.

I haven't been following this too much but weren't we working with him at LT?  What would be optimal is signing Norwell and move Moton to LT.

yup. Id love an early rookie too, but a vet presence ala Clutchery is very missed rn. Would help the young guys a bunch

Norwell will break last years deal the Browns gave Kevin Zeitler. We won't be able to afford him and that's OK, we'll simply plug in Taylor Moton at G next season. Yes, he's a downgrade but we'll be fine with him at G.

How much would the Panthers save if they cut Stewart, Shepard, Fozzy, Dickson, and maybe Mike Adams?

Approximately $9,563 dollars

I don't think the Panthers will be paying Charles Johnson next year as well.

How much is the cap going to rise next year? If it's still continuing the average from Gettleman's years I think this team will be fine.

we better kick star out to make room for norwell. Star has done nothing for us in the run game. We keep getting gashed up the middle. We can find a solid NT to replace him.

I agree about Norwell over Star.  But Star has continued to be stellar in the run game and taking up blockers.... would definitely be a big loss if we didn't have him

Not a fan of paying OG's big money. They are not hard to find in the draft. 

A great OT? Ok I can deal with that. 

Not an OG though.

It certainly wasn't fantastic when Ryan Kalil was hurt.

These contracts are really going to suck when the CAP decreases.   When does the next TV deal get negotiated?
