Minor Roster Move


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

We are trading for Owen Schmidt so he can be re-unitied with Pat White on draft day.

That would be AWESOME.:thumbsup:

Actually, I just read on rotoworld's blurb that they said he may have not reported to off-season workouts on time and thus was waived. Makes sense.

nvm it's been updated by Gnatt.

The Panthers have waived FB Nehemiah Broughton, the former Redskins blocker. He was just signed earlier this offseason.

(Updated 4:03 p.m.)His agent, Harold Lewis, said Tuesday that the move was salary cap driven, and that he hopes to be back with the Panthers soon. Apparently, they were so tight after paying some cap charges that were scheduled to hit (roster bonuses, incentives) that they needed to clear Broughton's $460,000 off the books for a few days.

You may now return to your regularly scheduled kvetching about Julius Peppers.

Clear waivers and then re-sign him.

I understand that part, but if we had to waive him for money reason's/ to get him off the books. Why would we only need to have him off the books for a few days. If we didn't have the money to keep him, then how are we going to have the money to resign him.

i love our front office..

do you know of any other team that would be able to dance around the line for so long?

you think Detroit or the Cowboys or anybody would be so stubborn and hang onto Pep, no matter how much of a bind it puts us in? if we had a lesser FO, Pep would be gone by now and we might only be sitting with a 2nd rounder in return.. but since we got Hurney, we are wiggling around so much more with so So SO much less..

haha, its kinda humorous..

its like teasing you little brother by putting your hand in his face and saying "im not touching you, im not touching you"

I agree. Whats about our cap situation is going to change in a few days that doesn't involve Peppers?

    • I just dont get the worry over losing a practice squad player that just went undrafted. Everyone just made their selections. The chances of a team wanting to sign him to an active roster after not selecting him is very low.  If that interested they would have taken him late to evaluate in person. As far as I can tell two qbs were signed off another teams practice squad last season and they were both going in to their 5th season.
    • I enjoyed reading this thread and the usual banter that follows. The only silver lining I can identify right now is we do actually have a couple of young QB's behind him and we do have a nice roster on both sides of the ball built around the most important position. So if the team overall shows some promise but we still falter largely due to a lack of consistent passing output (again) hopefully the decision makers can be free to make the best decision for the team going forward after the conclusion of this upcoming season.
    • I don't really follow the team anymore due to a variety of reasons and consequently have largely stopped posting but I agree that this is a lovely website and community. This forum probably kept me around for years longer than I would've stuck otherwise because of how difficult it was to stop checking multiple times a day. Especially appreciate how lax the moderation tends to be compared to a lot of places, the crew here does a great job. Out of curiousity I decided to try making a new account (solely for testing purposes) to see what exactly is wrong with the sign up process. The issue seems to be that it never sends you an account verification email, thus making it impossible to complete registration. This is likely something to do with the email server upstream, hope it gets fixed. Also, lol
