But we didnt get anything for him and we are taking a hard hit.  Just let him be a back up or hold him until another teams starter goes down

This would be true if his base salary was zero or very low. It's $17M. You'd be paying him $17M in new money that is $17M in cap space you'll never get back by keeping him on the roster this year.

Hell, I would've given up a 6th just to have him gone.

Yeah that doesnt make sense for a 6th.  Seems like we should have just kept him

We created a scenario where Teddy simply couldn't be on the roster IMO.   Panthers pretty much tossed him under the bus.  After that, they couldn't keep him around.

I honestly really hope he does well in Denver. Great guy. Just couldn't cut it on the field for us here. Still rooting for him to succeed, even coming back from his injury in the first place was awesome.

I hope he absolutely bombs in Denver.

fug that franchise.

By renegotiating the final two years of Bridgewater's deal, the Panthers will save $6 million in 2021 and $26 million in 2022, a source told ESPN's David Newton.

Tom Pelissero indicated that agreement on draft pick compensation was the easy part of the trade.

Working out how they were going to split the salary was what took time.

Thats an expensive lesson that I hope Tepper and RHule learned from.  Should have just kept quiet and kept him as a back up.  Darnold does get hurt a lot

6 million in cap, 6th round pick > Bridgewater

Not to mention he's basically off our hands next year.  $26 mil off the books 2022.  A Post-J1 cut would have still hit us 5 mil. 

The only better case scenario would've been a higher draft pick (or never signing him in the first place lol)

I'd rather watch PJ Walker lose a game than Teddy.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
