Incredible job by Brandt Tilis. Maybe Tepper has finally hired the right group and will stay out of the way.

For reference, Dead Money for the past few seasons:

2021: $53.9M

2022: $52.4M

2023: $62.1M

2024: $69.3M

2025: $1.9M

All that waste and ineptitude for 17 wins over the past 63 games...

Fitterer deserves to be extradited back to CLT to stand trial for war crimes against this franchise.

The one caveat is we'll never know how much meddling Tepper actually did, but the results speak for themselves... one of the worst GM tenures in NFL history.

Look at this nonsense from this season alone in dead money:

Von Bell: $9.9M

Hayden Hurst: $9.8M

Donte Jackson: $9.7M

Diontae Johnson: $9.4M

Bradley Bozeman: $7.2M

Justin Houston: $3.8M

DJ Chark: $3.1M

Just such organizational dysfunction, from top to bottom. These weren't even good players.

That 2025 dead money number will go up some with the probable release of Miles Sanders, Ian Thomas, etc., but nothing even remotely close to the sheer recklessness and stupidity of the Fitterer Era.

Hopefully, we will look back in a few years and see this as the moment where we started to reemerge from the abyss...

One can hope... Keep Pounding!!

 

compared to the Saints, who have negative 62 mill in space next year, they have 3 players who will collect 48 mill in dead money as well.

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
