Calling it now, expect a player house cleaning

Some big names at that. They are long time staples of the team.

I think Charles Johnson and Ryan Kalil are sitting very dangerously on the cutting block as well as Jonathan Stewart. All 3 are playing way past their prime and could be replaced by comparable players a fraction of their current contract and we need more space now to sign players like Norwell and Star. 

If someone can find and repost the Matt Kalil contract stipulation that basically makes his contract a 1 year rental at first that would be great. Becuase I’m trying to figure out what his contract impact would be if cut, thanks!

CJ is definitely gone. Ryan? No.

If Larsen hadn’t played so well when he filled in I’d have agreed with you. We save 7mil if we cut him and he’s and old expensive player that missed the majority of the season.

I’d honestly would cut Kalil and offer him the O-line coach job, dude knows his stuff. Extremely smart player, just doesn’t have it physically anymore.

Matt is here to stay without a restructure. Terrible ass contract for bust of a player. Gettlemajic

Back when he was signed a few of us offseason geeks figured out that his contract was just a 1 year rental at first. So I’m curious if someone could dig that up again. I can’t because I’m stuck on my phone at the moment.

Stew gone - should be but won't be we're the Panthers

CJ gone - easily even Rivera/Hurney can't fug that up and it's not much the won't fug up

TD should be gone but won't be

Won't be surprised at all when we lose Norwell at the expense of our old fat.

Why TD? He’s not played bad at all, he’s a bit slower then he used to be, but still clearly he second best LB’er on the team.

You can't get rid of Kalil.  He lifts the entire offensive line.

For Stewart, it's a value thing.  We can get another younger RB who can do his job.  CJ has been done all season.  

We are really thing at DE, and it gets worse if Peppers retires.  

I do see that Hurney is going to have to cut some of his guys.  Sucks, but this is the business side of things.

LOL at the people who are saying Ryan Kalil.

We can’t cut Ryan, maybe restructure him but we can’t roll with Larsen.

As long as Matt is here which he will be next season he needs Ryan here for support (as pathetic as that sounds). 

Our line will be exactly the same next season. Then in 2019 Moton will replace Matt and we’ll have to find a Ryan replacement 

Copy and pasted my post from another thread since so many of you struggle to understand why Kalil isn’t going anywhere

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
