This is why I made this thread. I know Kalil is terrible but I figured he could at least be depth this season which is why it is shocking that he has been out all year and then we stopped getting updates after it looked like he was close to returning. If Clark can’t go we are in trouble being that we have zero depth.

I went to the Over the Cap website to get some information about Matt's current deal (https://overthecap.com/player/matt-kalil/1793/)

I willingly admit to not fully understanding all of the nuances of NFL contracts. IF I interpreted the below tables correctly it appears that the team will still owe him 14.7 million of his contracted guaranteed amount after the 2018 season. If he's designated as a pre-June 1 cut the Panthers won't have any significant cap savings and Matt will count $14.7 million per season in dead money for 2019.

Current Contract (Pre June 1 2019 cut)

2019 30 $7,000,000 $4,900,000 $750,000 $250,000 $0 $12,900,000 6.8%  
$14,700,000
($1,800,000)
2020 31 $10,000,000 $4,900,000 $750,000 $250,000 $0 $15,900,000 8.0%  
$9,800,000
$6,100,000
2021 32 $10,500,000 $4,900,000 $750,000 $250,000 $0 $16,400,000 --  
$4,900,000
$11,500,000

If he's designated a Post-June 1 cut the team saves $8.0 million in cap space for 2019  and the $14.7 million still owed can be divided 4.9 per year in dead money for 2019-2021. 

This seems to be the most reasonable scenario for the team if Matt doesn't retire at the end of the season (which could happen based on his injury history).

It's crazy (and sad) how many terrible left tackles Newton has played with since Gross...

Remmers (LMAO)

Bell (LMAO)

Clark (LOL esp since the Steelers game)

Kalil (LOL)

Michael Oher is the best one he's had and he was average on his best day.

Don’t forget the French Canadian guy and Nate Chandler

No way he "stops" playing when he can make that either by being cut, or being out performed next year. He is basically guaranteed that money. If he retires the Panthers can try and get signing bonus money back and not pay him that amount. 

Like it or not, either we eat the money and cut him, he is on the team next year, or he agrees to a injury settlement

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Week 16 - Other NFL Games

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
