Panthers approx $29 mil under projected $132 mil cap per Joe Person

The Panthers restructured the contracts of three veterans – center Ryan Kalil, running back Jonathan Stewart and linebacker Thomas Davis – in moves that created about $7.25 million in cap space.
 
Gettleman asked seven players to rework their deals last offseason after he was hired, including those of Kalil and Stewart.
 
The Panthers are approximately $29 million under the projected cap of $132 million and could be clearing room to re-sign or put a franchise tag on free-agent defensive end Greg Hardy.
 
The Panthers also could try to get defensive end Charles Johnson, who has the team’s highest cap number at $16.4 million, to restructure his deal.

 

 

I'm thinking that Hardy is definitely going to be re-signed (or tagged), and that G-man is making room to  give him some relatively good latitude regarding free agency (including re-signing our own guys).  This is G-magic, boys and girls. And it looks like Gettleman has yet to finish waving his magic wand.

Not sure why you think that. He just needs to be designated as a June 1st cut. Could save 5.1 off the cap.

 

Then there is no rush. We cut him now leaves us with Jones and Lester as the only safeties under contract. We have some cap space, no need to jump into anything.

I don't think Gettleman is done quite yet. Restructures to CJ and Olsen along with cut such as Godrey, Dwan Edwards and Chase Blackburn could get us to 35 under the cap. 

 

35 is the number he mentioned at the combine interview. I wonder if that was his target and everything else is gravy

    • First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????
    • I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field. 
    • Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
