FYI: the panthers have no cap space

Been seeing a lot of people asking why we aren’t making a move and trading for player  x, y or z?

why?

We don’t have the cap space, we used our extra cap space on slapping together a make shift offensive line and signing Reid. Which is what we needed to do. 

Our current salary cap sits at: $239,000

we ain’t signing no one, or trading for anyone.

I've seen you preach base salary restructures several times now. It is certainly an option, but you're kinda potentially damning your future in the process.

I mean, do you want to fully guarantee KK money even though he's clearly regressed a bit this year?

This is what happens when you put 75% of your cash into defensive tackles.

Dude, you literally know nothing, they have no incintive to do that. Especially Cam and KK

Why wouldn’t Cam or KK want all their game checks from this year right now. That’s the easy part. No player turns that down. 

  You want to discuss anything involving the salary cap, let’s do it. You are telling me I know nothing, yet you don’t have a clue on a simple restructure. 

  There is only one of us speaking from a position of ignorance. And I’ve proven many times it ain’t me. What else you got...

Once again, just like you did yesterday, he’s speaking( and preaching) in absolutes. 

 The question of if it’s a good idea is another issue. 

Cam- yes. Every year. The only way he is ever cut is injury and we would be rebuilding anyhow.

KK- tougher call because of what you said

i disagree that kk has regressed this year. poe isn't doing his job. he's not even meeting the level of star lotulelei. combine that with average edge play, and kk is getting a lot more attention than he has in previous years. 

kk isn't the problem on this defensive line. the other guys are.

The next two years won't be fun offseasons people.

Here's a look at people who's contracts are up next year:
Ryan Kalil (retiring and UFA)
Thomas Davis (retiring and UFA)
Pep (retiring again? UFA)
Mike Adams (retiring? UFA)
CJ Anderson
Marshall Newhouse
Eric Reid
Devin Funchess
Wes Horton
Fozzy Whittaker
Colin Jones
Kyle Love
Chris Clark
Amini Silatolu
Ben Jacobs
Daryl Williams
Taylor Heinicke
David Mayo
CAP
Manhertz (RFA)
Byrd (RFA)
Norris (RFA)
Cox and Obada are both ERFA

2020 UFAs:
Addison
Torrey Smith
Cockrell
Searcy
Shaq
Bradberry
Van Roten
Hawkins
Seymour

We're gonna need cap flexibility just to stay afloat. Bad contracts on guys like Matt Kalil and Munnerlyn are hurting us right now. One could argue that the last thing we need to do is to make things harder in the next few years on us financially.

    • You bring up a good point on the stability part and i would agree that probably will factor into it. But yes, Tepper does have a strong influence on who stays/goes but I still believe ultimately it'is Morgan, Tilis and Canales who will decide.  
    • I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.
    • holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!
