Absolutely disagree that we don't have a quality roster - and trading away McCaffrey for pennies on the dollar doesn't make it any stronger either.

poo article.

I could understand trading CMC just because RB's don't last forever in the NFL. I love the guy but at this point we're just wasting the dude.... I whole heartedly agree with you about the "Quality Roster" part.... this team is legit if we could even get a AVERAGE QB that could put up 20-24 points.

It’s going to be 18.5M before March, no matter what. Whatever amount that comes off this years(around 6M) is just less carry over so it’s all the same. It’s going to sting. 

Yeah I get that, I am just wondering where that comes from?  Whose contract and how can we negotiate to offset that huge hit.  I mean if it produces a first then do everything you can but that is a lot of money to try and wiggle out from for this year.

We've gone back and forth on this for a few weeks now.  I think this roster is bottom half of the nfl and now the national guys are figuring it out.  We have some shiny pieces up front but our depth pretty much across the board is lol funny.  Add in our cap going forward and its going to be interesting since we dont have a ton of draft picks to fill out some holes

None. Every vet contract is renegotiated already. There is no off-setting dead money. Once a player is off the roster, it hits. That’s why it’s not a good idea to kick the can on every player. Hard to get rid of them.

Thanks.  I believe it was you that explained it to me last time I asked.  So I guess Jason L hasnt really looked at our cap situation.

What the fug were they thinking giving him that deal after only 3 seasons?

So Tepper is "hoping" Rhule just quits, huh?  Rhule is a moron NFL head coach, but he's not stupid and going to forfeit tens of millions just to quietly exit.

Rhule likely isn’t forfeiting that much money if he lands a good power 5 gig. Plus there is happiness and his entire future (more money) at play in the long run. 

Brian Kelly LMAO makes more money than Rhule.  Miami, Michigan State, etc all pay their coaches more.  With ballooning salaries Rhule has decent odds if someone wants him of getting really good money and no longer being a miserable laughing stock.

LaCanfora has proven with remarkable consistency that he had absolutely no idea what’s going on in the building in charlotte

edit: he isn’t even pretending here, the entire article is “here’s what other people think of the panthers.”

Trading away CMC for some draft picks would be so disappointing

What good new coach wants to come to an org that hasn’t won in a half decade, has no QB and no draft picks?  It will make us the default last pick IMO any good coach and they likely just wait another hiring cycle.  Where you go matters for not only player success but coaching success to.  You largely have about 3 years in this league to put up

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
