Not really. Around $29,000,000 free now. Darnold will be moved, whether its to the Texans or elsewhere. They almost certainly have something in place to dump Anderson if they need the space. That's $60M cleared. This doesn't include the fact that some combo of Burns/Chinn/Brown/Horn will also be moved, which will likely have a cap neutral effect or clear a slight amount of cap, depending on who is traded. The combined incoming total of Watson and Tunsil is a little less than $53M. It's easily doable. 

LOL…they are fuggin stuck with Darnold unless the Texans are crazy and take him back.

I still can’t believe we are doing this

Burns is good for a sack or two every other game in the first half.

Completely disappears when you need one the most, ain't no TJ Watt or Aaron Donald closer poo going on out there.

Teams literally scheme to run at him because he's pedestrian there.

Burns is still young. People forget he just played his 3rd season. That’s the only trade asset that will hurt imo. He still has room to grow.

There is pretty close to 0 chance that Darnold is on the roster come week one if Carolina trades for Watson. Darnold will either be in that trade going to Houston, or Carolina will dump him elsewhere. You can book it.

How are they going to dump Darnold and not pay all(or almost all) of his 19M salary as you previously suggested. They had to pay 17M of Teddy’s 20M last year to dump him and Teddy was at least almost average. Darnold is far from that.

    • He needs a Dustin Hoffman special (step stool). 
    • It is simply a team that is unable to beat the teams they should beat. If they do that, no convoluted tiebreaker needed, and a justifiable winning record.  Team was 8-10 on the year and showed progress. But let’s not get carried away and throw a parade because of some fluke tiebreaker result.  We finished 1-3 coming out of a bye and 3 of those were ‘must win’ games. Only Seattle was not a must win. So we finished 1-2 in must win games and backed into the playoffs due to a fluke.  Generally speaking most teams drop a couple they shouldn’t and win a couple they shouldn’t. And that is what happened with our 2 wins over playoff teams. We stole a couple.    it was good that we did that, but a true good team does not get swept by the Saints, with a QB making only his second start in that first game.     That is what losing teams do. I have seen enough losing teams to know that.    Aside from that, I understand the thought that we have arrived and now we should expect to win every week. But I don’t really agree that we are there yet. I understand the FO and coaching staff need to take that posture around the players, but I am worried if they really believe that and start making moves based off of thinking our window is open NOW. .   I think one more season of acting as if we are building and the window is yet to open, would serve us better.  You know, afraid we are gonna start doing ‘win now’ moves and undermine the build.    We are really set up to take a step back now, with this harder schedule, with the unexpected Icky injury, and still with a lot of holes.
