Even without the Matt Rhule factor, the Panthers don't have a lot of resources to spend to make this team better. Panthers traded draft picks for busts like Sam Darnold and that Jaguars CB.

And when you factor in that this team has the worst coach in the NFL right now?

This team is completely fuged. Strap in boys and girls.

That x-axis seems kinda dumb unless you think a 2nd and 3rd round pick are worth ~$80M in cap space.

According to this chart the Saints are considered to have more "resources" when in reality the difference between the Panthers and Saints is one team having a 2nd and 3rd round pick as well as ~$80M less cap space.

At this point, it’s a tough chart to look at. However, this thing could flip upside over night through trades and cap moves. 

The point of the composite score is how difficult flipping that overnight would be.  We have very little offseason flexibility. Sure we could mortgage the future to increase draft capital this year, work out some trades to offload players etc... But that's hard to do. We have less room to make moves than many other teams...

I would say that yes, having a 2nd and 3rd is probably more offseason resources personally, given how malleable the cap is.

the good news is we'll all be able take our half-interested children to a game for fifteen bucks, buy 'em some stadium nachos, get drunk, and leave in the third quarter like the wine-and-cheese fans we've always bitched about without feeling the slightest bit guilty for the first time in franchise history.

2022 is coming up aces 

...i wouldn't step foot in that stadium...

So us and the Bears are in a league of our own in terms of hurt. At least the Bears have a young highly drafted QB and an upcoming new HC to excite them. We have Sam Darnold and Matt Rhule. Yep, pass the rope.

We are legit the worst, most hopeless team in the NFL right now.  Jesus we have fallen so quickly.  The worst part is that there is no easy, quick fix.  We're proper fuged for the next couple of years.  Only bright side is that we are definitely going to be in the running for Bryce Young or CJ Stroud next year.

A single trade down and a couple contract restructures/cuts and we move upward right. the data doesn’t support future state, it only supports current state.

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.

      Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
