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.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
