Where are you putting the 4M Reddick salary that hits next year when he’s playing on another team?

The problem is next year. If Erving(2.2M)and Elf(1.3M) were signed to one year deals for their cap hits this year, no problem. But the team is either paying them 7M+ Each next year, or cut them at 10.5M. They better start somewhere. Or that’s a lot for backups

I mean like being cut after a restructure, ala KK should have been earlier and finally was. He’s not cut. His contract is over. Curious how they work with comp picks myself. If they are eligible still, it helps.

Yes. It’s just like any restructure. And Paradis is being cut and the 9.2M is gone. This is just a way to make this years hit as little as possible.

Yes. But the team is not getting anything from it. It’s the same as dead money. It’s gone. There is no difference. You have 9.2M to account for and no C. What is the difference?

That’s not how it works. The entire 9.2M hits in 2022. Unless they resign him to another 3-4 yr contract. Those are void years. They cancel after the season.

So it looks hypocritical from every perspective? Good to know. I now expect Chuck to lecture us on how it’s wrong to start ALT accounts

Giving Darnold 19M guaranteed for no reason.

One guy who has a good situation is J. Philips. An outside LB/rush end on a good, 3-4 D, will give him many opportunities to rack up sacks which is mainly what awards will be given by. The LB Davis in WAS is in a similar position as Parsons. With a much better DL in front of him. Davis may transition faster simply from his line makes it easier. I’d still take Parsons long term.

Is it fair to assume that today is a “good” day for PFF’s credibility? At least until they say something negative about any Panther? Then it’s back to being a joke? Hard to keep up with the changing up on a per statement basis.

I think y’all might want to check in on Paradis and Reddick’s contracts. That’s 13.2M that is the same as dead cap. Kicking it down the road with voidable years is no different.

And it has been for a very long time. The point was he wasn’t near that level of play last year. I think everyone is well aware of how Pro Bowls haven’t been an accurate barometer of a players ability.

This has been a “rumored” outcome for DD for most of the off-season. Best I can tell is the Steelers don’t think he will be healthy enough to be good. Not sure how he made the Pro Bowl last year as the injury dropped his level of play dramatically. Add in that Decastro was considering retirement and 9M was too much to gamble on a player with little chance of being worth that much. He may need to sit out this year just to heal. That’s if he even wants to play anymore. That being said, I don’t see Trai Turner being a suitable replacement. Best hope is he buys some time for their 3rd round G to come around. Hope this helps but it’s mostly from speculation and opinions from various writers.

Thanks for exhibit A. “Please go away and stop talking bad about my team”. And just like you did ITT, you and your homers question me. I just offer up a point of view. One that keeps coming true over and over and over. And the homers object but only can offer up this same cop out of “you’re not a fan” after their lack of knowledge runs dry.

The team signed Teddy, paid KK 13M, signed Boston, Weatherly, Whitehead, Roberts, Apple. I was against every one of these moves. How about you. Want to compare my record to the team. Which naturally would be where you stood on all these moves.

Homer it up all you want. But don’t attack any(and every) poster who has a legit question about the team. Just like you are doing now, the issue is dismissed because it’s not “optimistic”. Do you really need this place to tell you everything is wonderful until reality hits in September? How about all of the posters that don’t want anything but positive news and opinions make a list of what we are allowed to say and discuss. So as not to offend their delicate feelings. Would that help?

Then don’t have them ask someone to prove their opinion has merit and respond by dismissing it in the name of homerism and nothing else. Any slightly realistic post is just attacked to maintain the illusion. You want to debate anything I post and I’m all for that. Why else come here? Just so clueless homers can agree on how great the team is on their way to another top 10 draft pick. That sounds fun. Call it the “Sunshine and Puppies” forum.

Sure. Because they are much more Biased than someone who claims every move a team makes is great while that team continues to suck. You’re the biggest homer on here and know absolutely nothing about football. But we should all listen to you. What a joke. How many examples of our past “debates” you want to look at? I can guarantee if PFF had a good review, it would have been your first post. Like any source, their credibility is based on how nice they say things about the Panthers.

It is kind of hard to call a player who gets a rating below 50 on PFF as even average. It takes those bright blue homer glasses to squint that in with the rest of your “the team never makes mistakes” takes.

I would think almost any team would give a 5th. Just no downside to it. I would have given a 3rd for him over Darnold.

Shanahan. Should have two rings with Matt Ryan and Jimmy G. Nuff said.

I’ll believe that when I see it. That’s selling real low if they do something like that. But it’s JAX so maybe he doesn’t like Urban. Which most people don’t.

What makes you think that JAX will trade a good backup, with starting experience, and on a rookie deal for a 5th or less?

Not absent. Just harder to get to. Think page number and date of discussion/issue/transaction. I got called a troll and was accused of having an anti-SEC bias(AUburn alum)just because I said he sucked. People on here just don’t want their fantasies disturbed. Everything always is a good idea. Which doesn’t really make sense if the team is 3-21 in the 2nd half of the last 3 seasons. Ignoring the possibility of mistakes is what got the Panthers where they are. But you’re one of the very few who realizes that.

Now take into account the huge positional salary difference, and the fact that one is good and the other just had an awful season. There’s more to it than guaranteed money. Shaq at 18M next year should be sweet. Or 12M to cut.
