Legit question, does the Saints downfall scare you at all of Cam's upcoming mega deal?

What the hell did you think was happening when we had Brenton bersin returning punts? Dg be like nah I like to keep this money for fun

I must say that after finding out we will have 45 million in cap space next season AFTER we lock up Cam changes my whole perception, we will be able to do anything we want at that point. I'm so use to having piss poor cap room year after year these past few years I didn't realize we are only a year away from all those terrible contracts from 2011 coming off the books

You also have to think about the future with that money. Luke star Kk and kelvins comtracts will be coming up before you know it. You have to decide if you want to keep certain players or let some walk. Of the team is on the brink of a Super Bowl than splurge. We're not at that point yet

Wasn't the whole point of the Rookie wage scale was so you could surround young QBs with talent as they would not take up as much cap space?

No, the rookie cap was put in to keep from paying unproven players huge money right off the rip. Think Sam Bradford. Basically a bust, but got a ridiculous load o cash because of where he was picked and the hype leading up to the draft

Which Panthers will be free agents next year?

 

Cam. Luke, TD, Tolbert, JNorman, Cotchery, Derek Anderson, Roman Harper, Wes Horton, Colin Cole, Joe Webb, Brenton Bersin, and Brad Nortman are the notables, but some have conditions

 

Luke we have the option of adding a 5th year to his contract before the end of this May

 

TD, Cotchery, and Harper are technically signed beyond this year, but those extra years in the contract will void after this season--extra years were added for cap space in the 2014 season to reduce the signing bonus cap charge

 

Cam could have the franchise tag used on him if we can't agree on a contract extension
