I expect next year to look like 2002 when we bring in an actual NFL coach.  The 01 team had some young pieces but desperately needed a coach to put them in position to win. This team reminds me some of the 01 group.

This team has talent, but that team had championship-level guys 

Smitty > Moore

Peppers > Burns

Buckner > Brown

‘01 Steroid Line > ‘21 Walmart Creatine Line

Morgan > Shaq

We have a young talented team.  Nothing need to be gutted.  We need QB, OL and TE.  We are set.  We will also have a ton of cap space.  You guys are so dramatic.

$29 million is not a ton if you want to sign any of our own FAs. 

I dont recall but I think panthers are like 15 to 18 in cap space

It’s quite hilarious actually if you think about it…. OP is suggestions fire selling a team with a top 2 defense and playmakers on the offense.

 

instead of evaluating gaps and filling them, fug it let’s just create more gaps and figure it out all over again……

Because people are stupid, this teams needs a real coach, and an OL.

I don’t know.  We are one of the youngest teams in the NFL.  Hard to have a fire sale with our roster. 

now we might let a lot of FAs walk.  No Gilmore.  No Reddick.  No Cam.  DJ maybe gone.    

not sure who would want CMC’s contract.  

 

 

I honestly think you bring in a new coach and a they can draft their rookie and go from there. The team is young and imo talented. Look at your guys that could turn into some draft equity (Derrick Brown, Burns) and maybe flip them for picks instead of expensive extensions. Prob don’t spend a bunch of money resigning a guy like Jackson. See if you can get appropriate value for CMC (which at this point is the cap room and probably a 2nd round pick). Then start to build…with a coach who knows how to coach an NFL roster.

It’s going to be more with increase cap and cap carry over from prior year.  We can also redo few contracts.  We can easily spend $50M in free agency.

Moton: convert salary to signing bonus $10M

Resign Shaq: $10M

Resign DJ Moore: $8M

Void Paradis contract $8M (zero dead money)

We will have about $40M in cap plus possible additional $35M with few moves.  So yea, we got a ton of cap space.

That 30M is including increase and carryover. 
 

Keep kicking the can down the road in rebuilding years and you’re never gonna see even mediocre. 
 

DJ Moore has a guaranteed 11M 5th year option. 
 

 Paradis’ voided money is basically dead money. It’s in the total already, but you still have to find  a C still and you’re not getting anything from Paradis for the 8.2M cap hit. 
 

And all the team needs is starters at QB, LT, LG, C, FS, LB, DT and 1 pick to help. How much are these starters going to cost if you can fill all those positions with “around” 40M. Plus pay draft class and any kind of depth.

      Wild Idea.. Trade for Shemar Stewart

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
