You could look at it like I look at XL/Coker. Coker offsets the XL error. 
 

Dan got Lloyd 5 mil per year cheaper than people estimated. He got Walker way under the estimates. I don’t think Walker is great but given the situation that was good work. 
Phillips got paid but collectively we made out pretty okay. 
 

10 mil cheaper on Walker and 15 mil cheaper over the contract for Lloyd.  That is 20 (oops 25) mil saved apply it to Phillips and you get him for 25 per year x 4. The inferior (we think) guy from the Chargers got 4x25.

Why would you waste energy on it at all?

Everyone should ignore that 20m for inj as it's really fully guaranteed for all intents and purposes.

$9.9m cap hit this year, which is what we expected them to do. Backload the cap hits.

I truly wonder what they are thinking if/when they have to give Bryce a new deal?

Bryce will take a team friendly deal to make up for the fact he sucked for 2 years and we had to trade the farm for him. Trust

No agent on Gods green earth is going to suggest that, he will have us by the short hairs when it comes time to negotiate.

They'll back load his deal and restructue or cut after three years like all of the Panthers deals have been set up under Dan. 

[carpanfan96]

3 years 81.25m with 45m guaranteed (20m in 2018 hits March 15th of 2027) 

Will either be cut or extended in the 2028 off-season.

No agent will sure, but no agent plays football. Does Bryce want to win or does he want an 8th mansion?
