Didnt they sign him last year? This is getting vastly over-looked, i believe it adds 35 million more to the dead cap. 

Another lane it may only add 20 million, which puts red numbers on the table. 

But HORAY.....1st overall pick, right?!?!?

This needs to be confirmed.

I think we just eat the signing bonus

I don't think that can be right 

If it is it's not likely all in one year

That would be worse if it's spread out to multiple years as it then completely negates the advantage of having a QB on a rookie deal.

Need to hope the hit is all in the first year or else it makes the trade even dumber than it already is.

So that is what the getting the space(motwon, wilson, wood) was for.....NOT boze....

 How do you feel about the trade? 

No. DJ was scheduled to have a 24M Cap hit so they gained almost 10M in cap space. No need to make room. 
 

   Gotta try something. And the cost wasn’t bad. QB roulette sucks. And they are going to have to hit on whatever plan there is for skill positions. But overall, I would have done it and it is big deal to have it done this early.

Im still hung up on DJ, unwise.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................coming to terms with the other parts.

2nd big part is I was never that high on ANY QB, didnt feel it was worth the juice.........they sure feel different.

      Ultimately it's up to the other safety prospects to clearly outplay Scott. I think when that happens on tape against other teams it'll be addressed. I think none of them have done that definitively and consistently yet.

      Evero?!?! Should he be on the Hot Seat

      By CRA · Posted

      Night and day difference in the front office investements.  Since Morgan has been in the FO (5 years)....4 out of 5 first round picks have been offensive players.  The one defensive pick was a corner. Expand it out to the first 2 rounds? 7 out of the 9 picks have been offensive.  That IMO is why our D sucks so bad.   You build defenses up front.   Carolina hasn't been investing there.  Ron's first 5 years? 3 of the 5 first round picks were defensive players.  Expand it all to include second rounders  7 of the 10 picks were defensive.  All front 7 players.

      I think he gets this year to show what he can do.  Last year, we had a lot of injuries. This year, we should have some players, even if we lose one or two.  It's the first preseason game.  Some of the starters weren't even in it.  There is no scheming or game planning.  Let's see how guys do when it counts. I think we have a GM that knows a thing or two about defense.  Let it play out.
