Well we've seen the option for Wright not picked up and Poe's team option being declined has been reported, so that queues the question, just who do we still have on the roster -- https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/carolina-panthers/cap/ 

(Declining Poe's option would see our available cap space around 44M with just 4.3M dedicated to the rookie class -- so 40M to spend, there is also another 3M available for releasing Mike Davis this is likely to happen, so that would elevate us to 43M, even with the dead money being held against us, that is a respectable amount to work with)

Offense 

QB-

Cam Newton (Age 30) / Will Grier (Age 25)

HB-

CMC / Mike Davis (saves 3M) / Jordan Scarlett

FB-

Armah

WR-

Moore / Samuel / Zylstra

TE-

Thomas / Manhertz

T-

Little / Daley / Moton

G-

Turner

C-

Paradis / Larsen

--------------------------------------------------------

Defense

IDL-

Hamilton

DE-

Short / Obada

Edge-

Burns / Miller / Haynes

ILB-

Thompson / Carter Jr. / Smith / Kunaszyk

CB-

Jackson / Elder / Luke

S-

Reid / Jones / Green / Jamerson

I cannot wait for free agency to start, and not because of a ''splashy signing'' I'm truly interested to see what spots we fill, which should subsequently give us an early idea of what we're looking at via the draft. 

With the combine out of the way, team private visits. and Pro days will be next alongside free agency. 

Gents things are starting to get a little interesting, and with that how do you feel knowing we have 40+M to work with in free agency?

If we bring in a DT or ILB via FA at a moderate price I think that will signal the pick at #7, I know a lot of eyes are now on Simmons, question is does he survive the top 5?

I think FA will go like this:

Our "splash" signing will be on the DL. We'll sign a few DEs and at least one DT. We'll also draft a couple DL.

At CB, we'll sign at least two FAs. Maybe Norman will come back for cheap?

We'll sign at least one mid-tier Tackle, and two higher/mid-tier Guards. We'll also draft a couple OL.

Robby Anderson might be an option, but I would lean more towards NOT right now.

A couple of specific guys I have my own eyes on are Tavon Austin (returner/slot/RB gimmicks/WVU blind loyalty) and Tajae Sharpe.

Vance McDonald and Luke Willson wouldn't be bad vet TEs to bring in.

I wouldn't mind bringing Mayo back in at LB.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      By fanpanther · Posted

      the one thing this post has suprised me with is how much support there still is for young.  i dont understand why.  we had qbs before him that went to superbowls that lost support way quicker.  thr only qb we had had that started any number of games that played worse than young is clausen.  allen and moore played better and yet people still support him makes 0 sense to me

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      Again, can’t have a serious discussion if constantly wading through hyperbole. And you say that’s not really what was meant, but I tried to at one point get some folks to concede that he was physically capable of throwing a football 20yds just so we could get to a real discussion and they stuck with it. So I’m not sure your characterization is entirely accurate.

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

      By strato · Posted

      And this is his third year. As far as people not understanding things, I am not sure people accept how difficult it is to remake yourself from the ground up. Which he absolutely has to do to compete successfully at the NFL level.  He takes a step forward with the footwork and a step back when he is stressed and reverts to what always worked for him before. I will say it yet again, anyone that reached a level of success with their self taught technique but needed to rebuild to break through the limitations that imposed, will understand this. I don’t care what specific activity it is the same challenge. Muscle memory and comfort level fight against the new moves you are trying to train yourself to do without thinking.  He is there. There is a ceiling with his technique that is too low for the NFL. He has to retrain himself.  We are in the third year and I guess we are supposed believe that he will be so good  when he finally gets to where the new will be second nature, that we have to wait (how many more years) for him to finish doing it. If he ever finishes.  The sad fact is he will not succeed at the NFL level with his horrible college footwork and compensation moves like the tippy toe drop backs. He just won’t.  If he can’t put that on the table for us, we would be foolish to not seek an alternative plan.
