I believe talks have stalled. So unless he gets low balled in F/A (he won't) then we will be signing a budget F/A and grabbing an OT in the draft. Then another OT once final cuts are over in pre season because one our OTs will still suck.

Plan B is likely already in effect. That's giving Matt Kalil another $7M to provide subpar play until he ultimately winds up on IR at which point we insert some warm body off of the couch at LT and continue to play Moton at RT. C'mon man, it's the Panthers. These are the things that we do. Keep Pounding (our QB into early retirement)!

Plan - B is Moton, FA, and draft. Like it or not the Tackle market period for starters in Free Agency is 10M+. Even if we could free up space my cutting Smith, Kalil, it just creates new holes, and eats up a good bit of the space we have. 

For all of the cap hell Getts helped to alleviate, he blew it on the Kalil signing. I think we see a tackle taken in the first three rounds, and a JAG veteran signing or return (Clark). 

If we are able to land Williams, I'd be glad to see Moton move to LT, and Williams at RT, but cap wise I suspect Kalil is cheaper than Williams' incoming pay day.

Exactly what holes are opened up by releasing guys like Torrey Smith and Matt Kalil? You don't have to spend $5M and $10M+ to get bad WR and OT play, respectively.

Just think cutting smith, speedbump, and shaq could have us at over 30mil lol. Nah we just need bad play on the field, no free agents, and veteran locker room leaders lmfao

Shaq isn't a bad player.  He was asked to guard slot WR's often the past few years, which was stupid (although he was still better than Munnerlyn).  Shaq taking over for TD's role, will finally put him in a more natural position.  He'll thrive in it too

      Kind of where I'm at on this also. I think he has the potential to be an all pro caliber guard if he can come back 100%. He's more mauler than quick. Hunt is making 20m per, Moton is making 22m. Moton is a better RT than Icky is a LT so I think the pay comp would probably be about the same there. I don't see Icky as a 28m per season LT. He'll be low 20s and as an elite guard, i think he'd be within a couple mill of that.

      I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.

      I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
