Best I got is AJ brown directs some some of "QB hate" from hurts to the rusty rifle...

I mean did philly also take his salary too?? He had like 2.25 in guarantees and if so that lowers his cap increases his cap relief from 100,000 to 4,000,000+. That was a big issue from a release standpoint, 4 mill in cap space... I believe he also has around 2 mill in dead cap, but still better than 100,000 total..

I would assume we eat most of his contract and take on the cap hit.

Good luck to Andy, thanks for making this place home for a while. There were quite a few moments there and one incredible game. And however Bryce turns out, it was good to have a vet here to help bring him along.

We need to see how that plays out before handing out the props. 2027 7th for 4 million in 2026 cap space seems like a great deal for Panthers if that's the case. 

4-8(incentives) million is the going bottom rate for backup QBs, I think Dalton was right there in the 4 range. 

Well bonus, BY no longer wearing Huggies now....(just holding Pickett's ting hand now..)

Probably nothing. We basically bought their 7th round pick in 2027.

We bought a pick?  It was money already spent.  We acquire a pick for a QB that was probably looking at retirement.

I’m not talking literally bought it. But when it’s all said and done that’s pretty much what we did.

Can't believe we got anything for him

The front office continues to make intelligent decisions:

If they would have cut Andy, Panthers would have saved $150K in cap space

If they traded Andy, for anything even for a pick swap, Panthers save $2.1 in cap space

we just received a '27 7th rounder and saved $2 million for a player we didn't need anymore

This is my question and approach as well.

It seems great to get anything for Andy. If we ate his salary for Philly, it's more "meh" for me. I'm sure it lands somewhere in the middle but if we got a 7th AND Philly pays him, big dub for Dan and Brandt.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
