Why The Panthers Are Quiet During FA

A league source with access to the numbers said the Panthers have a whopping $24,042 worth of cap room, last in the league.

So not only can they not sign any free agents until they clear some room, but they couldn't even buy a full-size car with what they've got left. Then again, if they've got it in cash, they might be able to buy General Motors, but that's another topic altogether.

If we do poorly this year after sitting on our haunches and not clearing any cap room, I will f'ing despise people that will STILL defend Fox and Hurney here. I will despise you.

Do tell me sweet cakes who would make an impact here in FA?

I will never say FOX is the best in the league, but he is pretty damn good.

Hurney, gets way too much blame and never enough credit.

But please, tell me, who do you want signed ?

Real problem now... If we DO do something with Peppers, how are we going to use up 17 million between FA and drafts?

Wouldn't take long.

I would rather sit on it, extend a couple of our guys coming up (T.Davis) and have a nice bag of capspace waiting for 2010.

Oh and you DON'T have to use up all your cap space to be a competitive team either. I think you need to save a bit of room for injury replacements as well.

What are you saying!

We should bring in everyone and offer them as much as possible!

Having a plan in FA is crazy talk!!!!

IF WE HAD THE SPACE, i would like to see any OG or OT signed.. no big names, just a cheap O-lineman for depth.. maybe Orlando Pace for a 1-2 year deal.. he cant possibly think of starting at his age, right?

or some depth at DT, DE or CB:

DT Dewayne Robertosn, DT Anthony Weaver

DE Michael Montgomery, DE Kalimba Edwards

CB Joselio Hanson, CB Chris Johnson

just to name a few..

Survey says...the same people who whine about that will be the first ones to whine when those guys turned out to be not worth the huge $$. :D

None of these guys have been signed so nothing has been missed.

Pace won't be a backup IMO.

Until we trade/cut Lucas we don't need a CB

Robertson is waiting on us I think, or he is so bashed up its a waste.

The type of people you are talking about is exactly the type of FA's we WILL eventually sign.

It has worked for us in the past and will again.

      OFFICIAL 2026 Undrafted Free Agent Thread

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Any idea what happened to him at LSU? im reading that he was considered a 1st round pick in 2023, had an off 2024 season with only 4 sacks but was also on a horrible FSU team then went to LSU where he was supposed to be on an aggressive defense that should have given him a lot of sacks but he only ended up with one….   was he injured? Did the top SEC competition expose him? What happened? Cause this guy was considered a top prospect .

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.
