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 !

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
