  1. We are aware. The key to that within this current discussion is absorbing the dead cap hit that is coming one way or another with or without an additional draft pick to ease our minds and give us something anything to build on after wasting an 8th overall pick and the most expensive RB contract in the NFL. But again we do not hold much leverage if you want to continue to argue that there is nothing more we can discuss because it is fantasy.
  2. I need to know one or multiple GM's personally to conclude that most of them will recognize that they can simply walk away from the table if we demand more than a 3rd or 4th round pick given everyone knows our contractual circumstances and the circumstances with the question of his availability given his recent run of injuries? Okay.
  3. Hey bud I haven't discussed his cap numbers in this thread do you even know who or what you're responding to? Must be day drinking. For the sake of clarity his cap hit is 19 million next year and the same in 2024. Next year it would result in 18.3 million in dead cap to cut him and 10.8 million in dead cap to cut him in 2024. We really do not have much if any leverage in this except in the minds of some Panthers fans.
  4. Oh that's fine we can maintain that position as long as we want it just leads us to the inevitable point where we simply cut McCaffrey within the next few seasons and hope and pray he doesn't miss multiple games again along the way. Your perception of leverage differs greatly from that of other general managers around the NFL.
  5. He said she said doesn't matter Wilks controls his own destiny now I'm eager to see what he's learned over these last few years. This might not be a great opportunity based on the not ideal circumstances but it is a chance for him to prove people wrong. If it doesn't work out we'll have a decent draft pick to fall back on.
  6. Says the guy who followed me around for weeks and even asked about my relationship status. Get some better material. We can ask for whatever we still have no leverage in this everyone is clued in to our circumstances. If we got a 3rd that would be a small miracle and I would take it in an instant.
  7. Multiple firsts is the bar for an elite young quarterback. We look like idiots asking for that for a running back who has missed multiple games the last two seasons it doesn't matter how good people here think he is. And this after tucking tail and firing our 63 million dollar college head coach. It's gonna be awhile before we can dig ourselves out of full on joke status around the league.
  8. We're probably stuck with him for one or two more seasons. Everyone but the Panthers and a small group of weirdos here know the position is devalued and you can get good production with even average backs.
  9. Valid but your point cuts both ways in this discussion. Those claims about being given incentives for tanking are all the more reason for teams to be extra mindful not to give any indication of impropriety. So again we're back to tanking talk being mostly a fan dream.
  10. Tanking is a fan thing. Might as well go ahead and prepare yourself for the inevitability that we win a few games and end up with the 4th or 5th pick. It's just what we do.
  11. Yeah we'll never be able to draft a productive running back and Robbie is irreplaceable
  12. Burns isn't getting moved in the middle of the season with an interim coach. I don't know that he's worth the payday he's going to ask for but if we move him what becomes of the rest of the pass rush? What sparse resources we have going forward will or should be used to continue to build the oline and make this boring offense formidable again. It's easy to say get what you can for him but odds are those fans will be singing a different tune when they see our nonexistent pass rush and jag QB's having all day in the pocket.
  13. He does want the team to win but all the things we've seen to this point signal he can't get out of his own way and that just isn't going to change knowing how he has been in business all his life. The only thing that would make me feel better about the long term prospects of this franchise is if he hires a consultant and let's someone else take the reigns this go around. But I do not see that happening based on his personality.
  14. Logout and give it a rest Sam Losco your thread sucks.
  15. I lost my grandmother too you don't see me shouting that at complete strangers as validation for creating terrible content expecting to be congratulated for. Fug this guy.
  16. Spending a beautiful fall afternoon crying that people don't like your terrible thread...
  17. Disappointing about Horn but I'll let the season play out before I make a strong determination one way or another. As of this moment though for an 8th OVR pick you don't want a guy starting to pile up different injuries by his second season. As for the secondary I have Higbee on my fantasy team. Guess he's about to eat.
  18. Well that's not good. It's looking like the other owners knew exactly what they were doing when Tepper got pushed to the front of the line when the Panthers went up for sale.
  19. Yes I'm just thrilled about losing and seeing my favorite NFL team I've been following for two decades become a joke within the league Here we go. I'm an alt MrCompletely is an alt JackieLee is an alt everyone that simply disagrees with your delusional ramblings is an alt orchestrated by the mastermind Carolina Chuck.
  20. Yeah he was big mad. You're right I think it's safe to say the Wilks avatar on poundaway is a coping mechanism and the equivalent of this meme.
  21. Thanks I think I'll keep it awhile longer unlike yourself who wants everyone to forget how you couldn't wait to throw receipts in everyone's faces when they were proven wrong about him. You can scrub your profile of your angry mob banner and hide behind a Wilks avatar but you aren't getting off that easy just yet buttercup. Night night.
