I noticed on Sportrac that TD will be getting $10MM either next year or 2015. CJ goes up to $16MM, Deangelo and Stewart will account for roughly $13MM combined I think, and Smitty will be at something like $10MM too. I hope we can some how get hot and run the table for a SB victory this year, because we are going to lose some valuable pieces soon like Hardy and have to cut or restructure a ton of people. Oh yeah and Cam will go from like $5MM to at least $15MM I'm assuming.

For the first time in 5 years, I refuse to look at stuff like that before the end of the season.  Truth is, the Panthers team will certainly look different next year due to bad contracts, etc.  And Hurney certainly didn't leave the team in great shape over the next 2 years.

 

But the good news is, who cares right now?!  We are finally in a position where this year matters, and we can concern ourselves with this other stuff after the year.

 

I would much rather be in a position to make a playoff run and have a salary cap mess to deal with again in the offseason than to have no chance at the playoffs and still have the mess.

 

Hats off to Gettleman- he has to be considered for GM of the Year.  This year has been so crazy & awesome, and I'm hoping there are a lot more good memories before it's over.

    • So how about the Mondays after we lose? Because those Mondays after the Jags, Pats, and Bills games better have been run suicides until your legs fall off...
    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
