Who Is Still On The Roster Next Season?

If I am cho I keep the following:

Kemba - due to make roughly 2.6 mil next year with a two year team option the following offseason and a qualifying option for 2015.

Hendo - has a 4.2 mil one year offer sheet on the table this offseason.

Bismack - due to make roughly 3 mil next year with a two year team option the following offseason and a qualifying option for 2015.

Derrick (bench) - UFA

Mullens (bench) - 2.2 club option for the upcoming season and a qualifying offer the following year of a little over 3 mi.

DJ White (bench) - 1 yr. 3 mil remaining

Wiliams (bench) - 1 yr. 2.5 mil remaining

Thomas (bench) - 3 yr. 26 mil remaining (roughly). Considering he is pretty much untradable due to his contract I think you keep him coming off the bench. He has shown flashes of his old self rarely..but more so towards the end of the season.

Contract Obligations:

Carroll - is in the last year of his deal..making 3.5ish..might be attractive to a team for his expiring...if not just keep him inactive.

Diop - is owed 7.3 next year..but is also in the last year of his deal..might be a nice expiring for a team. if not just keep him inactive.

Maggette - is owed 10.9 and is also going to be in the last year of his deal...he might be more likely to be delt..if healthy..due to his expiring. If not..just let him expire..freeing up even MORE capspace.

Cut/Release Candidates

Eduardo - is a UFA..so he isn't coming back (if i am GM).

Augustin - did not sign his offer sheet..so if he isn't delt on draft day..he is probably walking for nothing.

Higgins - is gone (if i am GM).

Moon - is gone (if I am GM)

I really see the 'Cats as a good bench squad...especially with Mullens, Brown, Wiliams, and White. Kemba, Hendo, and Biz are probably going to start along with Maggette. Add a rookie to the bench and hopefully Davis..this is team is still staring at a top five pick next year. Hopefully that will be Shabazz Muhammad. Just my two cents.

Augustin will still be a RFA so we can match whatever offer he gets from another team if we want to. Other than that I'm pretty much with you.

One thing we need to keep in mind is we still have the amnesty clause we can use. I feel like we are another year away from going after some big free agents, so I don't think we will use it. Still Thomas would probably be my choice if we did. Carroll, DIop and Maggette will all be off the books after next year. If we amnesty Thomas we would have LOADS of cap space.

If anything, the 'Cats will be in GREAT shape a year from in terms of cap space and young talent.

I agree that Thomas may be an amnesty candidate...especially with how well Mullens and White seem to be playing off the bench. A crowded front line with the addition of Davis (hopefully) will further justify that case.

If there were not contracts and obligations..I would only want to keep a handful of guys:

Kemba, Henderson, Bismack, Mullens, Augustin, Williams, White, and maybe Derrick Brown.

Most of them would be decent role players/bench guys and are young enough with enough potential to be considered assets and trade peices. There maybe two or three decent starters in the group one day..Henderson/Kemba/Biz. Add a draft pick this year and two next year...things would be looking up.

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't disagree, but you're not giving our offense enough credit, and I'm not saying we would win the SB, just that we would be contenders, which we would have been. The Bengals had a horrible start to the season last year and it caused them to just miss the playoffs by one game, but had they made it, they absolutely would have been contenders in the AFC.  They had a bad defense, probably worse than ours will be this year, and you can't convince me that we don't have a better offensive roster than they had last year.   We have a Top 10 OL, two 1k rushers from last year, two 1st round WRs, one of the best slot WRs in the league, and then Coker.  Like I said, their Top 2 WRs are better than ours will be this year, but we take them in every other spot, OL, RBx2, and our 3rd/4th WRs.   If Burrow was able to turn that team into a contender last year, no reason he couldn't do the same with our roster this year.  And hell, I think our offensive roster is better than KC's last year too, and while I know their defense did a lot of the heavy lifting last year, if you give Mahomes an improved offensive roster around him, he's going to be THAT much better himself. A Mahomes, Burrow, or Allen would be able to win the South by outscoring teams.  And yes, come playoff time against an Eagles or Lions juggernaut, our defense probably costs us the game, but that doesn't mean we wouldn't at least be contenders. If Bryce can prove me wrong and his supporters here right, and be THAT guy for us this year, I genuinely think we can be a real playoff threat in 2026 once we add a few more pieces to the defense and then be a genuine SB contender in 2027 if the team keeps improving. We're the 2022 Detroit Lions right now.   Great offensive pieces, tons of holes on defense, but if things go right we'll just miss the playoffs (like they did) and then be right in the playoff hunt the next year (like they did) and then be contenders the following season (like they did when they were the #1 seed).

      Hornets have had the worst luck of any professional sports franchise this century. Constantly drafting a slot below the generational talent, all because of the lottery done behind closed doors. It's been brutal and frankly unfair to be a diehard fan of this franchise, and I don't blame anyone for cutting out the stress.

      We will see if there is any logic to those sort of packages. I haven't seen a ton of evidence that Evero operates that way.
