Moton, Hunt, and Lewis by themselves combines for ~68 million of the cap

Cutting bad contracts like Shy Tuttle, Miles Sanders, Dane Jackson, and Yosh Nijman would opening up ~18 million

Extending Horn and Moton would open up more space this season also

I read where some said they were going to cut Clowney and Wonnum to save $15m.  I don't see it.  Wonnum?  Maybe.

I could see where at least one of them goes. Panthers are definitely drafting an Edge this year. Maybe bringing in another vet. Clowney and Wonnum are paid too much to be backups.

I cannot see them releasing both as they are thin at the position as it is. If anything their backups should be worried about having a job here next season. Barno and Johnson are not cutting it.

Barno was injured most of the season, but that is part of it.

I strongly think they need to extent Wonnum, not cut him. 

In fact I was going to make a thread with the title of "Who should the Panthers extent?" Bypass the horn or icky easy TD and listed Wonnum as my choice.

Per Mike Kaye, Charlotte Observer 

▪ Impending free agents: If this beat writer was in Brady Christensen’s shoes, I’d look to head elsewhere for better pay and a guaranteed starting job. But if he can’t and that opportunity, the Panthers getting him back would be a huge boost for the ofensive line. Otherwise, the rest of the re-signing options are pretty much toss-ups.

Long snapper JJ Jansen and punter Johnny Hekker have value beyond their job titles. Cornerback Mike Jackson, tight end Tommy Tremble and wide receiver David Moore really t in well with the culture, and all three played well in pretty big spots this season.

Andy Dalton wants to return, and with Bryce Young in the QB1 seat, keeping that room together makes sense.

Feleipe Franks and Sam Franklin are logical targets for re-signing because of their value on special teams. Re-signing Austin Corbett and Cade Mays to compete at center is a logical, costeective strategy that seems to align with the way the Panthers will approach their already expensive trench group

This is pretty much what I wanted to say except I'm not sure about Corbett unless it's cheap and because he's an experienced vet who helps the others with professionalism. THat's the same reason I'd keep Dalton. Coaches on the team has a lot of value. Shaq could be another. Depends on money. Shaq definitely wants to play here.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
