I'm not going to be critical until I see the end results here. No one knows the chess moves or the overall strategy that's actually taking place. 

This.

Now ain’t the time to get frustrated over either of these restructures. 

At the surface level I’m not a fan of the moves BUT these may have been needed for what is to come...

Didn't like signing Shaq to begin with.  Hated signing CMC a year early.

Now we make the contracts worse...at two of the least valuable positions is all of football.

Almost feels like Marty's back.

CMCs deal was an extension, not a new deal.  So in theory we didn’t sign him early.  We added years to his rookie deal

You negative Nancy’s still have Hurney syndrome.  Gurneys restructures were always bad for the team.  Give Fitt a chance and wait for the details to come out

Speaking for our most virulent opponents of restructuring... It's not that people see Marty's restructures as bad so much as they see all restructures as bad because they add to future cap and it can get out of hand if you're not careful.

I'm not a big fan of it myself, but I get that it's a necessary evil sometimes.

Yeah and I understand that.  What made Hurney so bad was WHO he restructured.  It was often players who were cut candidates at the time or would have been a year or two later (KK Short).  Spreading out guaranteed money for a player like CMC isn’t really a huge deal.

Doing some sleuthing around, OTC shows Shaq's base salary this season as $10.18M. Sportrac is showing his base salary this season as $990k with a $1.83M restructure bonus over the remaining three years of the contract plus two dummy years on the back end. Assuming this is correct, Shaq's restructure will free up $9.19M this season at the expense of pushing $9.19M down the road. AKA - classic Hurney restructure.

Moving on... looks like we just covered Moton's franchise tag. These restructures will clear up roughly $14.5M in cap space and Moton's tag will hit us somewhere between $13.5M and $14M.

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      While I'd love to add him, it just doesn't make sense for where we are at in our re-build right now. The only teams who should be interested are those who have a very legitimate shot at winning the SB this season, as any team who makes the trade is going to be mortgaging their future to make the move. Teams who make these kinds of trades and then give them the massive contract, in the hopes that it will expedite their path to contention, ALWAYS ends up backfiring because they have to give up the 1st round picks that are then needed to help build out the rest of the roster after eating up such a significant chunk of the cap on the new contract. There is no way the Cowboys trade him for anything less than 2 future 1st rounders (and probably more), plus we'll have to make him the highest paid non QB in league history.  Not to mention that it would then have made the Scourton and/or Princely picks a bit of a waste, as those 2nd and 3rd round picks would have been better off used on a ILB or DB

      Like his approach to pre season that's ro get them out there and play together for a few plays and right about the night before and morning before.  Maybe we can come out the gate on fire I can smell the smoke from here!!   Go Panthers
