DT Larry Tripplett was a key signing in Free Agency as Panthers look to rebuild D-Line

CHARLOTTE, NC- In a Free Agency that saw WR Chad Johnson not picked back up the Cincinnati Bengals, some Carolina fans were thinking about how sweet it would be to see superstars Johnson and Steve Smith reunited from their Junior College days. There was, in fact, some speculation that the Panthers would go out and try to snag Johnson, but Johnson eventually signed with Cincinnati's arch rivals, the Cleveland Browns (who will be Super Bowl favorites with their dynamic offensive weapons in 2009).

Instead, the Panthers took a more conservative approach to this year's free agency. The Panthers went in not having many weaknesses, but it was clear that the Panthers were going to look to rebuild the D-Line back to it's dominant status of just a few seasons ago. To do that, the Panthers signed DT Larry Tripplett, 30, to a 3Y/ $7.00M deal with a $2.43M signing bonus. Tripplett, who rarely played while at Buffalo last year, will likely sub in on passing downs for Ma'ake Kemoeatu, much the same way that Pro Bowler Damione Lewis did during his first year at Carolina. The Panthers also added the promising DT Lajuan Ramsey, 25, to a 5Y/$9.65M contract with a $2.40M signing bonus. Ramsey is a strong run stuffer who hasn't had much a chance yet during his career thus far, but has shown promis with his strength and tackling ability.

On offense, the Panthers found their replacement for retired John Kasay with the signing of K Dave Rayner, 26, who played for Green Bay last year. Rayner signed a 3Y/2.07M deal with a $270K signing bonus. Rayner has been on and off with his accuracy (51/72 career) but has a monster leg. The Panthers also added RB Michael Bennett, a long time member of arch rival Tampa Bay. Bennett, 31, signed a 2Y/ $990K contract with a $340K signing bonus. He will likely return kicks as Jonathan Stewart moves into the primary

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      The same folks crying about the OL right now were crying about it in 2023 too. We have tied up over 100 million dollars in two interior olinemen alone and we have Taylor Moton inked to a recent extension. We've invested multiple first and second round picks in the offense. We hired an offensive minded head coach. This is an offensive team. The offense needs to produce or people need to be replaced.

      This is the same place that has ridiculed and blasted Caleb Williams at every opportunity he has his team sitting at 10-4 in the same NFC that the Panthers are competing in. And their division in the NFC North is as or more competitive as our division. Yet from the same people who have very high standards for Williams we get every excuse imaginable for the smallest starting QB in the league even when he and his team continue to disappoint when the pressure is on. You lot aren't any less inconsistent than anyone else.

      The Panthers are 9th in cap spent on offense this year.  However next season is already a different story  The Panthers as it stands right now will be 18th in cap spent on offense and 8th in cap spent on defense  The Panthers are currently set to spend more on defense next year than they are on offense this season Guys like Jaycee and Moehrig cap numbers take a big jump. Wharton has a massive cap hit   Jaycee Moehrig and Wharton in 2025 The same 3 in 2026 So this same defense as it stands right now will cost more in 2026 than this offense does right now… Got anything else you want to try?
