This is the way to refer to a stadium that doesn't exist and isn't planned- 'a' new stadium, not 'the' new stadium.

In 2022 the city is due to give 75 million to owner for upgrades.  I be he tries at that time to parlay that into much more for a new stadium.  While also threatening to leave.  It's just business

Are you kidding?  He's going to be asked about it everytime he has a press conference by Joe the Schmo.  I can't wait to hear him tell Person to fug off, you know it's coming.

If he wants to ask Charlotte for money, the stadium better be in Charlotte and not SC. Would be dumb for us to pay money and SC get all the revenue....

He will have both states lining up to throw money at him like a stripper at a frat party.  You watch.

The writing is already on the wall, whether there are plans yet or not.  Proactive speculation based on concrete facts and patterns of behavior elsewhere at other times. Take Minnesota  for example. They used Goodell to leverage the stadium during the 11th hour.  Take Oakland for another one--no new stadium, the owners approve a move to Vegas.   Do you think he WON'T try for a new stadium?  That could lead to a threat to move the team if he does not get it, and Richardson showed us  how people will react.  Tepper is a businessman.  Objective.  I will say that he will do what they did in Minnesota in 3-5 years.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
