Panthers free up more cap space


Recommended Posts

More #Panthers roster moves news: The team recently reworked the contract for backup OT Yosh Nijman.

Per league source, Nijman's deal -- originally two years, $8m, signed last year -- will still end after this season, but will save the team roughly $1.6 million in cap space.

Maybe it's just the same amount of money 

Hell both of us are probably right. 

plus I thought Brandt and Dan were against using the old ways of kicking the can down the road??

I do see if you roll over the 1.6million to next next year, a small benefit... but it seems they already spent it.

I think it was a paycut so there's nothing to kick.

I could be wrong, but I took the readings as they converted some or part of base salary into a signing bonus and "kicked" half of into a void year as add-on. Guess we need to see the details. 

Base for 2025= 3.6 turn into signing bonus and add void 2026 year. Its 1.6 this year and the "dummy" year. 

The cap is going up and should continue, so so that 1.6 next year will have less of % cap effect (tiny but still).

The next tweet says it was a pay cut.

So they took his money and gave it to Theilen 

honestly, I love it.  Rewards for production, cuts if not.  We paid our own over achievers and moved on from guys who didnt do squat (or dramatic reduction in pay (IE Shy Tuttle).  Players want to play for organizations that reward play, we've been kinda the opposite of that during much of the tepper term, but gotta change the perception at some point.

Yeah, there is nothing im that link to indicate a paycut at all.

Too bad we can't move on from owners who haven't performed quite as easily.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
