Panther's Cap at $19-$21M not $29M

@Jason_OTC I have the Panthers in the $19M range for cap room as well. I don't know where $29M came from.

 

@ColinWFNZ @Jason_OTC $117.27M in '14 cap obligations with $6.01M in carry over from '13 doesn't add up to $29M in cap space for Carolina.

 

 

Saw the #Panthers updated cap figures yesterday. They are about $21 million under the projected $132 million cap.

 

I had the Panthers with more space in past tweets/updates. Shoot the messenger.

 

 

 

Goes to show the Overthecap.com and Spotrac.com numbers have been closer than people give them credit

"Carolina arguably has the worst salary cap outlook of any team in the NFL moving forward. The team has around $102 million committed to the 2015 salary cap with just 29 players under contract."

Scary outlook. 29 includes Smitty and Godfrey though and also doesn't include14 players that we'll get in the 14 and 15 draft (plus any other UDFA's that are kept); also doesn't include the needed money to sign them either. Here's hoping the cap climbs to 140 next year and that we hit really well in the draft.

    • Why is it a no-brainer? I mean the idea of a hold out made me laugh out loud.
    • Oh, oh. I see what you are saying. Yeah but not all of those were draft for draft replacements. Jones was a dumpster dive. The overall point I was making is that it is becoming more common to see this quick pivots as people realize their mistakes. It happens with a lot of busts historically at QB.  IDK about "most teams" have fast, capable WR's. It's a mixed bag across the league. There are the Hopkins, Evans, etc that aren't sub-4.5 guys and are still star players.
    • So if it comes down to that, and it played out, we could be looking at a post June 1 designation for his 5th year money at best. Assuming it is guaranteed which I don’t know.     13.25 mil cap hit in 2027 and 2028.   I have to admit I never really went into the angles after picking up the option. I have always been don’t do it.    So, you pay him the 12 mil for year 4 and if you want out when they go into extension lobbying you trade or cut.  Is that conceivable?   The thing about trading is, I believe all the guaranteed money hits your cap right then. That’s 26.5 million if correct.  So if they picked up the 5th, this would cover the ‘we want out’ expenses from our end, after year 4.   Correct?
