That's when Travelle Wharton's cap hit finally comes off the books. By that time pretty much every free agent worth a damn will be off the market though.

Hopefully, the Panthers have already worked out deals with a few quality free agents and are just waiting for this move to finalize until they can push through the paperwork and officially announce that they are signed. Also, this means it's much more likely that we'll be able to re-sign Shockey (not resign for you grammar nazis).

I'll be watching that date (and maybe the following few days after) specifically to see if our FO has any tricks left up their sleeves. I guess we'll see what happens...

Yep, hopefully we've told Shock to hold tight until then. Too bad we missed out on Garay but, at least we got Applewhite back. Really by that time, after the draft, even if the FA market is thin, I don't think we'll have too many needs as a team.

I don't think any "quality" free agents are gonna wait all the way until June to be paid.

if your best offer is from a team that needs to wait a bit until they have the cap space I don't see why you wouldn't take that. the base salary doesn't get paid out until the regular season starts anyway and that's the biggest chunk of a contract normally.

some of the most sought out players in the entire free agent market signed with the Bucs knowing they'd have to wait to see any money at all

      I am too. Frank became completely disinterested in the HC job after the draft.

      Panther fans sound off on Bryce

      By CRA · Posted

      down 24 and we get our first possession in the 3rd and what happens?  run TE checkdown TE checkdown run run run RB checkdown TE checkdown run TE checkdown incomplete TE checkdown run now on the 4 yard line- Renfrow TD and POOF!  3rd quarter is over.  That's not a team even trying to get back into the game in reality.  That's just the Panthers taking freebies to make it look respectable in the end and guess what? Bryce gets to pad on 6/7 to his stat line in exchange for making the 3rd quarter disappear.  Not sure the hyper focus on the depth of the corners.  Cardinals were going to simply drop and allow the easy stuff underneath.  Which they did.  Did they play a random short yardage play a little different? Sure.  That doesn't' mean they weren't just letting the Panthers overall eat clock to bring the game to an end.  The Cards strategy was fine on D.  You just don't generally see teams implement it as early as they did but they were up pretty big.  It's the other units for the Cards that fugged the plan up.  again, it's 3 drives,  the ONE in the 3rd quarter and only drive of the entire quarter and the 2 to open the 4th.  Cardinals gave Bryce stuff in exchange for clock  (and the result was slow long drives eating the clock).  The rest of the game? They didn't.  The rest of the game outside of those 3 drives the Cards weren't in garbage allowance mode and Bryce stunk
