How much can be saved if Godfrey is cut this off-season?


Pox 08

Recommended Posts

If I'm reading this correctly, cutting him prior to the new league year would result in 3.3 million in cap savings and 7 million in dead money while cutting him during the 2014 league year would result in 2.1 million in cap savings and 5 million in dead money.

 

Under his current contract, in 2015 the cap savings (4.1 mil) would exceed the dead money (3 mil).

I really only have a major issue with three of the big contracts Hurney handed out - DeAngelo, J. Stew, and Godfrey.  Kalil is probably the best center in the league.  No issue there.  At the time of the contract, Beason was an elite MLB.  No issue there.  CJ is a very good DE.  We may have overpaid a bit, but if we didn't we would've lost him and had to face him twice a year when he went back home to ATL.  No issue there.

 

With DeAngelo and J. Stew, he should've chose.  Once he signed DeAngelo to the big deal, DeAngelo should've been the work horse and we should've either tried to trade J. Stew or simply let him walk.  You can't have two big money RBs.  Godfrey?  I have no idea what he was thinking there, though I must admit that both Fox and Rivera know D and both seemed high on him.  The guy must walk on water during practice because I've never seen anything special on Sundays.

The guy tore his achilles I don't see how you don't cut him. I mean do we pray he can play to start next season, move him back to SS and make sure to resign Mitchell? I doubt that happens. We need a SS in the off season unless we feel Mikell has more in the tank and will resign again for cheap. Maybe Lester continues to develop.

Really hoping for this.

Gaining 3.3 million in cap savings vs. 7 million in dead money against the cap is why we wouldn't cut him, at least under the current contract. 

 

I'm betting Gettleman has already planned to negotiate a new deal with Godfrey that will accelerate his guaranteed money and make it cheaper to cut him sooner.

    • You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.    
    • THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
