LOL Yikes.  OK - so thats not so great.  They just REALLY wanted him off this roster.  Not that I blame them, but damn - eating 17 mil in dead cap is not cash money.

Ouch.

Reminds me of the Moneyball scene.

We're paying Bridgewater $7 million to play against us.

doesn't look like they took on the contract.    

Denver paying 3M.  Carolina paying 7M.   

So Carolina will be paying the bulk of his salary in Denver and taking a 17 m dead cap hit at home lol. 

Yeah so seems like in terms of total value to the team it's not much different than releasing him. We just valued the 6th round pick over the minimal cap space. I would've rather traded a late pick to get a team to take his whole contract but whatever.

More info... the panthers cleared about $5-6M in cap this year and roughly 26M in next year's cap

That's what I'm seeing. We gained $5.9 mil this year.  Eating 17 mil that was going to him anyways.

Then next year the salary floodgates are opened.

It was this or a post-June 1st cut.  Am actually surprised we got this done, was sure he was going to just get cut eventually.

    • Down to Carolina and Washington for Ehlers. 
    • Who are your top three breakout candidates for next season?    My three: Jatavion Sanders- Simply put he is the best receiving TE we have had since Olsen. We all saw his potential over that three game stretch prior to his neck injury where he showed a real connection with Bryce. Good route runner with glue for hands, limited blocking upside but he gives solid effort. With Tremble already being hurt I don’t see a reason why he already isn’t our starter and clear future at TE. Trevin Wallace- For a developmental LB forced into a starting role last year he  exceeded expectations. LB is one of the hardest positions to adjust to from college, and for a prospect who was widely regarded as very raw, surprisingly he was solid in coverage and only had an 11.9% missed tackle rate. He was overly aggressive consistently, and needs to work on his play recognition. But he is set up to be our best LB next season, and likely starter for years ahead. Even barring reaching his upside, his floor was clearly a lot higher than draft pundits assumed(Morgan can scout LBS). Cade Mayes- I am hopeful Cade wins the starting job at C this season. He may have been our most improved player last season, he looked like an above average starting C after he took over for an injured Corbett. He allowed 0 sacks on 327 pass block snaps. Corbett can not stay healthy, and at this stage in his career Mayes is objectively the better player. Mayes is only 26 and gives us the potential of stability at C, something we have never had since Ryan Kalil retired. Corbett slots in as a great backup C/Guard, and Cade continues to develop and gain more chemistry with Bryce and our stud duo of Hunt/Lewis.
    • Have to pair them like this for it to work, imo. Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Walker Ghosty - Chatfield    I'd prefer something different but that's probably what we end up with unless Ghost is traded to one of the 17 teams not on his MNTC.
