Yep. This roster is getting close enough where with the right new HC, we should be able to pay a legit vet QB to come here if Corral ends up not working out

Yep, our cap situation for 2023 SUCKS!  At this point, the 2022 roster is what it is.  Adding another player or two isn't going to tip the scales to make us dramatically better.

Would be the most optimal.  Can realistically get approved to roll $10-12 mil, not the whole ~24ish mil we'll have post-draft signings.  So, we do still have 10-15 mil to work with (they'll probably want a slight buffer)  

Already set to have nearly $30 mil to spend and much less dead cap next year, could be looking at $40+ mil 2023 with Moore already re-signed.  Burns' contract will be a good chunk.

We clearly cleared 30 million in order to absorb a possible Baker Mayfield or Jimmy Garoppolo acquisition. Since that’s not happening we simply save it for next season 

League approves rollovers the day after the final regular season games so it will be fully dependent on who becomes available/how the cut season shakes out.  But yep, if no Jimmy or Baker, we'll likely be looking at a lot of rollover.

yes but we can get a lot of money by cutting under performers - Robby, Shaq, Elfein and others

You can pretty much mark Elf and Wilson off the list (that's 13.5 mil with not a lot of dead cap)

Robbie would be 21 mil savings, 9 mil dead cap (that's + another 11 mil)

Let's be conservative and say we rollover $12 mil

I also like Haynes but he's a virtually no dead cap next season, that's $3.5 mil savings cut

That's already $40 mil obvious non-Sal magic savings (and then the big looming question if we take the "out" on CMC's contract)

Cap has become so fluid and strategic, they'll figure it out.

Re-sign Burns, front load the deal, help our future cap out.  We used to have a ton of space next season. After restructures in the Watson push, re-signing DJ, etc., we're now over the cap for next season already. 

Just because we have it, doesn't mean to spend it to improve our mediocrity.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
