Its half of the cap. $43M - $14M equals $29M, not $39M. 

The cap room really does disappear when locking up these players. I'm not sure if the $43M is factoring Mario Addison's contract as well...

I would love to get Berry, but someone is going to pay him big bucks and i dont see it being the Panthers. 

Yeah, the 43 is factoring in Mario's.  So, we would still have 21 mill left.

Two problems. Math first, 43-14 is 29 but Star is already under contract for 2017 and included in the cap number. Adding 8M more for Star is David Newton math.

Yeah, that's what I thought.  So, we would have 29 mill, basically.  That's why I think my math was messed up.  Since we already have Star under contract.

Rumor today is they'll tag Berry and let Poe walk. Interesting to see since Berry already said he wasn't going to play under the tag.

If we hope to sign KK and Star to long term deals that cap room quickly disappears especially if we have to tag KK. I would say that it is highly unlikely Berry comes to Carolina (although I would love it). It would limit our spend on other areas of need like OL and WR.

We are not signing KK. He want 17 million for a disappearing act last year. Not going to happen.

someone is going to pay Eric Berry a boat load right on march 9 at 12:01

DG wants to build the front 7 . We are more likely to go after a pass rusher than a safety . Get pressure up front consistently and the safety position becomes less important. This is the Gettleman way.

I would be fine with keeping KK on the tag for just one more season meanwhile long terming Berry

I,would be extatic. Berry would help,our defense so much.

DG can't get enough pass rushers .if you think we are done because of Mario Addison...you must be new here .

Lol says the guy who has less than 200 posts. We have Addison if you think we will give another huge contract to a DE you need to up your meds.

So help me if Boston is extended while letting another puke team outbid us for Berry in the amount spent on Boston I'll never watch another Panthers game.

I highly doubt Boston is extended.  I want(ed) him to be good but dang, he not good.

Well, we need depth, so of course those added $1-3 mil chunks will take off some of the cap. But still, we'll have enough to make a decent bid at FA.

Berry again is more of a luxury rather than fixing a position of need. Cyprien makes more sense in the fact he fixes our SS; Berry is a FS.

Berry is just extremely talented and would allow Colman to play in the box. But yes Cyprien would not be a bad choice either.

He made more mistakes than our rookie CBS.

Berry is clearly the priority for the Chiefs. However, he has made it clear that he has no plans to play out another season under the franchise tag, so the two sides will need to be focused on getting a long-term deal in place.

Berry admitted that he isn’t getting his hopes up when it comes to a long-term contract.

“I’m going to keep being patient because you never know,” Berry said Sunday, via the Kansas City Star. “Last year I thought one thing and it didn’t happen. So I’m not getting my hopes up; I’m looking at it logically.”
