Panthers attempting to trade Steve Smith.

I'm actually talking about Cam leaving because just like the Cavs we haven't given him much help. Hell we are actually taking players away from him.

 

Need to wait and see what they do.  If they add a FA like Rice or Nicks.  And then add a WR (cooks, benjamin, etc) in the first....our WR position is better off than before.

As I've been saying all along, it's not about Saving Money with Smith. It's actually about getting him out of the locker room. Several of the inside sources with the team are saying that Smith was causing some issues in the locker room last year. 

 

 

With that said, a June 1st cut would save the Panther's 1 million this season, possibly 2 depending on if he's got a kicker in his option bonus.

 

His contract breaks down as 3 million guaranteed base salary, 2 million bonus, 1 million kicker. Cap hit of 6 million with the kicker and 5 million with out it. 

 

Next season his cap hit would be 4 million and all of it would be the remaining bonus left on his contract, which saves the team 6 million dollars. It also cuts off 12 million in the 2016 season as well.

 

 

 

Trading him cost the team, 2 million this year with a cap hit of 9 million on the books. Which is his salary of 3 million and the 6 million left in bonus money. However it saves the team 10 million next season and actually saves the team more money over the next three seasons.

Welcome to the real NFL....it is all about $ and business. And that is not just the owners, but the players too.

Fans get all emotional about this. Most players are NOT fans of the teams they play for. They are employers.

Who exactly is the NFL for if not the fans. No fans = No league.

Anyway not the point.

I've never met or even spoken to 89 but the thought of not seeing him on Sundays was something I was preparing myself for. Just not ready and to see it happen like this just feels wrong.

This is epically ridiculous, though. Your GPOAT is getting treated like trash. We have no viable #1 waiting in the wings and he should be allowed to finish his career here! For all that he has done and meant to this organization and city?? Come the hell on man!!!

LOL

SMH.

"AceBoogie", believe it or not, the Panthers were around before Cam Newton.

They were also around before Steve Smith, and will be around after him.

Let the poo work itself out before you kill yourself. Damn.

I was a panther fan long before Cam, but I'll tell you one thing Cam is the best qb we've ever had and Steve is the best player we've ever had and it's not close. Cam Newton's don't fall off fuging trees. Look at the qbs coming out every year. Cam Newton is rare. You don't put hubcaps on a Lamborghini

It is definitely tough and emotional....mainly because it was unexpected. 

 

Let's see how it all plays out.

if it was on his terms is one thing but to be handled like this is another. we all knew he would be gone at some point but i would have at least like to have seen him call it.

Wait, did we or did we not make the playoffs? Calm down and see how evrything plays out before getting your panties in a bunch.

 

FA hasn't even officially start yet. ffs

I'm not happy with how this whole scenario has played out, but I will reserve full judgement on Gettleman's decision until I see what happens next. He always knew this would be a controversial move, so I admire the balls it must have taken to do this. But even still, he could have handled it better and he needs to make sure that Cam goes into the season with weapons we know can help. Lots of work to do yet.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
