What the hell is with the cap space?

Ok guys, I'm so confused in this topics. There have been atleast 10 different articles that have all declared we have different cap space. Although all have us on a tight budget but some have us as at almost 10 mill under the cap. While some have us at at almost 10 over. Idk how there can be that big a difference. I know it's hard to judge but surely to god somebody's has a clue. I'm starting to think this forum has more knowledge than reporters and beat writers and sports networks ;).

It's kind of a big deal ya know. It might decide if we could pursue any free agents or it could be that we have to restructure and cut like hell just to sign our new draftees. And as a fan I kind of wanna know. Anybody got some knowledge to drop

I wouldn't worry about it. Zing.

Exactly. We will somehow get under the cap without too much pain, and we will then sign the players the FO feels are worthy. They won't be the 5 star free agents that most fans want, but like it or not, it is not the team's philosophy to sign the big names no matter what the cap situation.

Look for the Panthers to do little early on in FA. Once the dust settles, they will pick a player here and there to fit the perceived needs.

Well the league hasn't announced what the cap is for next year. Any number you see is not only guessing what our exact cap hit is, but what the actual cap is.

You haven't seen any because it wasn't expected to go up any at all, because the NFL sent teams a memo explaining that the Cap wouldn't go up for the 2012 season back in October.

Now with the new reports coming out, it might go up to 125.

I just hope we bring back John kasay who is a free agent. I know he is on his last leg inthe NFL, but he is a class act and under pressure is automatic. He is still better than Mare and would not break the bank. Let him retire a Panther !

    • Like your sense of humor.  The answers we seek often lies in the question we ask.
    • This is going to be one of the more competitive camps we've had at WR in awhile... The only locks are XL, TMac, and AT. Coker and Horn Jr both have strong chances at making it. I can see David Moore being WR6. Renfrow might be the WR7 if they decide to carry that many, or he could join Dan Chisena on the PS (who gets stashed to help on ST more than at WR).
    • Sure, but I have long acknowledged he got better.  He went from horrific to mid-lower end starter.  But now you can’t say that…..you got people wanting to spin top 10 play if you look at it this way, great deep ball passer if you only acknowledge x.   I mean the headline in that article is nice for fans to run with.   But in reality Bryce Young was not the best deep passer in week 12.  Far from it.  He went 2 of 7 with no TDs deep.  The week was full of guy who went something along the lines of 3 of 4 with a bomb TD.   So Bryce then gets appointed best deep passer for say….plays like a 50/50 jump ball while trailing late to a fully covered AT that goes incomplete but could have been something given how the defender played it….not an actual good play.  But that could have been a good play.  I mean, same play could have been a pick if everything else was the same and the defender who had AT blanketed played the ball better (nothing changes for Bryce in terms of what he did.  It’s just a 50/50ish ball to someone covered)….and his entire best deep passer week 12 is built off plays that never happened over guys that actually got it done.   we should be happy Bryce with from shouldn’t of been drafted play to serviceable starter last year.  But all this spin that he is somehow actually sneaky great just ain’t something I’m doing yet
