Panthers Trade for Jared Allen

[CLTPanther]

Wow, we almost never make trades

[chknwing]

His contract 

how much in cap space does carolina currently have this year?

[Jesse]

Holy poo!! Nice pickup. What did we give up though?

[R0CKnR0LLA]

2 years. 8 mil per. 12.5 guaranteeed left which is all on this year. None guaranteed beyond 

His contract 

From what I saw the 12.5 guaranteed this year, 11.5 is a roster bonus, which would have already been paid by the Bears (and so, they'd take the cap hit for it). All we would owe (and take a cap hit for) would be the 1 million base salary. Actually less now as he's already played 3 games. 13/16 of one million, whatever that is if anyone wants to break out a calculator.

Solid move, need some veteran presence at DE.  Could be another player that returns to form in Carolina.

a conditional pick

[CatofWar]

I just jizzed everywhere

[Growl]

There is always somebody out there. Lets hope this move puts that stupid sentiment to bed.

[bigskypanthersguy]

Perplexed in a positive way.  Curious how this plays out.

looks like an NCIS photo

[KB_fan]

A move like this early in the season indicates that the coaching staff, FO and ownership feel they can contend this year and want to shore up any weak points on the team to compete in January

THIS.

[Dunn]

Now lets get Alshon out of there and complete this 'fair' trade with Da Bears. ha
