I think with his contract, Matt will be kept on the roster for at least one more year. The coaches have to be honest with themselves and understand that Matt is a bust FA signing and should be used as a backup until they can get out of his contract. 

We can cut him after 2018 as a designated post-June 1 cut and save $1M on next years salary cap.

Dead money from his contract will still be impacting Carolina for the next 4 years but, after this season, he can be cut with no negative impact on the salary cap.

On the following link, select the "Cut (post-June 1)" in the pull-down box: https://overthecap.com/player/matt-kalil/1793/

Yes. Moton or Clark are vast improvements at LT. The lineup we had Sunday did a great job. When Trai comes back it should be even better. Question is, do we cut Kalil this offseason?

As Bad as I've seen Ryan Kalil play Clark-VRoten-Larsen-Turner-Moton may be our best line (assuming Williams is on IR for good).

   You don’t get 3-4 years to pay that dead money off. We have to eat 4.9M next year and 9.8M in 2020. Nothing else is guaranteed so we aren’t saving anything. Just getting rid of sunk cost.

Luckily Gettleman made the contract so they could dump him next year. What a waste of money. Truiy disappointed it didn't pan out. At least they tried. 

  Using the word “luckily “ when referring to the Panthers and how DG made this contract is about the LAST word I would use. 25M for ONE awful year of play that we haven’t even made a dent in , cap wise. Nightmare would be far more appropriate.

I get Kalil is bad and all but...

 

 

1. I love Carl Lawson... he's a fugging beast and SUPER strong and was a fugging steal in the 4th round when Cincy picked him.

2. Clark's "technique" may be awful, but he ain't holding.

3. Clark's "technique" prevented Lawson from getting to Cam.

Kind of like Cam throwing off his back foot, if the "technique" works, I DON'T GIVE A POO.

Daeshon Hall could have been Carl Lawson and Eddie Jackson just by not trading up. Can’t believe Carl fell that far.

Yeah, I thought maybe Carolina avoided Lawson because he was a little light at 255-260 to play 4-3 DE.

Then they went drafted a 235 lb guy this year without near the ability that Carl Lawson had/has.

I thought maybe it was his height(frame) and scouts didn’t think he could add weight. I was complaining about the Steelers passing on him 3 times. He’s a born 3-4 OLB. 

  Then Haynes happened. Screw theories. It just sux.

He's up to 265 this season and looks even stronger and faster.  Yeah, I think he fits better as a 3-4 OLB, but at his size and raw strength and athleticism, pretty sure at this point he could also play 4-3 DE.

Some players put on extra weight to play a position and suffer for it.  Others just get better.

He’s bigger than Mario was at his age. And is ridiculous strong. So he could handle full time DE. He......ah hell. I’m pissed again.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      This thread is turning into bizarro world. Most of the anti-Bryce crowd was heavily pro CJ Stroud so I am confused how that ties into any racial element.  Not saying we still don't have some of that crowd in here but it's not like the Prime Cam years where this place was rife with those types.  The anti-Bryce sentiment SEEMS to MOSTLY be rooted in his underwhelming physical stature/abilities and/or his underwhelming overall career to date. All this being amplified by the massive trade haul we gave away for him. So, technically we have missed the opportunity to draft Jaden Daniels AND passed on CJ Stroud. Fairly or not, Bryce hasn't measured up to those type of players at all.

      Because 2 coaches have not allowed him to do it.  And in a real Hail Mary scenario the throw is  further than the clip shown and likey doesn’t allow a clean setup. You can’t go over the top.  So you have to let WRs get downfield and the technical throw is going to be further and as you have to drop back to by time and likely won’t have an ideal setup.

      I can’t stand silent any longer.. He has s sickness.  It will defy any logic people try to bring.  He tried to deny us the freedom of having a negative opinion of a player simply by the color of our skin. Yet we have positive opinions of many black players  Love some of them   I guess they must be house *you know the word* if we like them   I bring it to this: let’s say you are black. are there black people that you don’t like? I brt there are.  But no white people are allowed to dislike them? Because they are maybe shitty people of shitty players or there is just something about them you don’t line. We have to drop this way of thinking.
