Yea yea, i know that if the NFL did not enforce a trade deadline, NFL team trades would be a mess. Still that got me wondering if no trade deadline was enforce, at 2-6 who will the Panthers decide to trade for help?

also how will that impact the Free Agent Market? can somebody say "you want that in plastic or paper?"

Seriousy people, he's trying to start a thread to generate conversation (everyone's opinion at that), and you all bash him and call him dumb. Yea he might have a low post count, but that doesn't mean he's dumb.

But onto the OP topic, I think at 2-6 at the bye we have no real shot at the playoffs, no need to trade for a stop gap player midway through the season, especially being a young team. Let the young guys gain experience and try to improve their game. Use FA for players in case of injuries and throughout the offseason improve the team through the draft and FA/Trades.

The idea of starting a thread is to introduce information not yet known by forum members. Its not a way to start conversation.

If having a message board to talk about the panthers doesn't generate conversation amongst the members, then there shouldn't be a message board in general. He posted a thead in the right forum to see what everyones opinion on how could we possibly improve the team, and he gets bashed for it. That's ludicrous, there's multiple other posters who start similar threads. Hell even zod started a thread about we should win vs. The titans. Its not new information we haven't heard yet, it was his opinion to generate conversation amongst everyone, but no ones bashing him.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
