Sorta misleading.  If the Moton deal was back loaded to cost nearly $30m in 2024, and you anticipated Burns needing a new deal in 2024, it really focuses on their salary timeline--not to compare the overall contracts.  I would have paid Moton $17m over the 4 years and not tried to back load it.  

Very, because you were talking about Burns not being worth more than Moron as if they were both making the same amount. You are moving your goal post a bit now.

If we extend Burns, he’ll likely have a smaller cap number early on just like Moton. In 2021-2023, Moton’s cap was about $8M per year. Moton’s deal will not conflict with Burns at all. That said, you are correct that I don’t think we did a good job with cap. When you win 24 games in 5 years, and you draft a rookie QB, your cap space should be ginormous already not hey we have a lot of cap in 2025 since we have no impact starters under contract. We should have had no issue signing Brown, Burns and Luvu without pushing more money into 2024 from the past 5 years of mediocrity.

What dead money?

I think the last three year the panthers have had close to 50 million dead each YEAR!!. It has to be a record. They never bought into a real rebuild, just max out and push the money into future years. Ive said before that only works if youre a winning team, which..if my math ...carry the 2......yep the pathers suck.

 Not a record. Not even the most over that span. That would be Philadelphia.

We are 18th in dead money going in to next year. That's  slightly better than middle of the pack.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
