[ImaginaryKev]

He's gonna retire a Panther. Solid team guy

Yup we had $12M before the Thomas contract is even factored in, at least $2-3M for that, so $10M to sign draft picks, and they'll need this $11M to sign as many jags as they can because we only have like 50ish guys on the roster at the moment. Robby/CMC/Shaq/Darnold are like $70M alone plus $20M in dead cap for 9 guys that don't play here anymore. Almost half our Cap for that mess. FA Jags incoming

...yea...we know the drill... FA Jags incoming.  Yet these idiots think we can take on 40mill Watson contract.

3D chess brother. Give away all our draft picks for crap so we don't have any to sign!

After sleeping on it and reading about the workouts this past week and Pickett universally had a good week then prepare yourselves gents.  We are signing a LT in FA and drafting Pickett and his 2 gloves.  I dont like it at all but I will be supportive.  Damn this sucks

The problem here is that it shows us a REMARKABLE lack of planning on the part of our front office.  We just gave Moton the contract LAST YEAR.  We can't even plan a year into the future!  That's terrible.

Now, we're going to be paying a RIGHT tackle LEFT tackle money against our cap going forward.  Moton is great, don't get me wrong, but he's not a left tackle.  Just laughably bad management.

You are not wrong.  We should have taken this puppy down to the studs 2 years ago and yet here we are still trying to fix up a house with shitty bones

Y’all think 11 mil is a lot, it’s to help with some low priced FA’s. This didn’t happen to go after some big trade lol.

You’re thinking too small. These restructures and cuts add up

No it doesn’t lol. If you think that, be ready for a let down!

[Mr. Scot]

Oh, restructures definitely add up.

They add up to big chunks taken out of future cap.

But we have a cap genius that is paying Reddick to play elsewhere almost as much as his backup to start this year. With this move we can push more dead money back on a deal that was actually worth it for new guys who won't be like Thomas and Anderson or the 2 duds we picked up right away last year. 

This isn't a good thing. If we made the playoffs last year and had a QB and LT, then we could talk about this maybe being a savy more. It's just getting the cap and roster into a worse and worse place as this crew's time here goes on. 

I can't believe they just promoted that guy when we could get a spreadsheet that does a better job of planning the cap out. 

[Basbear]

Panthers will NEVER not have dead cap with these moves. holy jesus!!

24 cap number for a RT next year??? Is that in the top 5 for LT, feels like it has to be. Fisenner needs to stop going Herniay on stuff, sick of the BS.

Would not surprise me if they trade Moton.  Everyone is up for trade remember? Why else would they restructure him if it wasn't to ship him in a deal? 

Tinfoil hat off.
