I read they have 30 mil before Brees deal. How in the hell can they sign him, Graham, and Butler. But we have 30 mil and can't sign no one. I never understand how we are the only team that can't never get anyone. Makes no sense.

Curious as to what Fowler means?  "Other than that, all set..."  does he think Kalil will be addressed then?  

Oh well, probably doesn't matter, as I don't think he has many sources to go off of lol.

It's sarcasm in regards to another tweet in that thread that isn't the one posted here.  Basically saying the Panthers have like 6 holes, and only 18 million in space after rookie contracts.

He's referencing this tweet, and somewhat sarcastically I think.

Because cap space doesn't mean anything

theoretically there's no reason a team couldn't be up against the cap every year, just like somebody could more or less live their entire life addicted to heroin

assuming you're always hitting on most or all your draft picks and FA signings every single year in the first example and can always afford to cop in the second example everything is great.

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
