This came up on the Around the NFL podcasts this week. Rosenthal says the Saints are looking like 80mil over for next season and that's before they do any deal with Kamara. They're hosed, capwise.

The thing is I've heard they are hosed for 10 years straight and it never seems to happen.

If the cap retracts, I am not sure all their fancy book work will function. 

Then again, Belicheat is allowed to cheat his way to success every single season without any real punishment so maybe the NFL has just decided the salary cap only applies to 31 teams.

The saints are banking on the new CBA negotiations saving their ass. They’ve been gaming the system in hopes of a reset come next season. If it doesn’t live up to their hopes they’ll be hosed, theoretically. I frankly don’t know how they made it to this season.

CBA has already been ratified. The only thing that might be up for negotiation is the cap retraction due to coronAIDS.

They are either absolutely fuged or the cap isn't real. Those are the two only scenarios I see.

They also know the NFL wouldn’t dare to risk loosing one of their precious teams during the season. So they would only really be looking at draft & monitory penalties unless the league absolutely gutted their roster for them.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
