2019 cap space what would you do?

[WarPanthers89]

With the cap going up yet again next year I was curious what you would do if you were gm this offseason. We all know that we have many holes to fill especially on defense, but how would you go about filling the roster? Do you take a chance and sign a vet like Thomas Davis for one more year so you can push off drafting a linebacker for one more year? Do you stick with Larsen at center and Roton at guard? Do you re sign Williams? Anyone getting cut/restructured? What would you realistically do with Matt Kalil? Do you resign Reid for a reasonable rate and go with Our rookie in the other spot to take Adams spot or go fa or draft?  What if Peppers decides he wants to go for one more year? Do you let him walk or try to replace 3 DE spots? 

 

Huddle GMs bring out your inner Hurndog and let me know what you would do this offseason as gm. 

[Mr. Scot]

Put it in the hands of a better GM.

I think we try out best to keep TD and Peppers. Let Funchess walk if he wants a 4 year Number 1 more deal. Let Williams walk if he wants mega money. Hopefully you can give him a 2 year deal coming off injury. Think the biggest signing other than that is keep Eric Reid. Our defense is much better and physical with a solid safety behind them. Especially with how Short and Poe let runners go straight past their levels into the secondary. What safety is tackling Josh Adams, Mark Ingram, Todd Gurley, Levon Bell? Gaulden sure aint. Colin Jones sure aint. Adams gonna fake punch the ball and ride them for a good 10 yards first.

 

We keep Larsen.. I think Kalil is hanging up the cleats.

 

Best case scenario is sign Clowney which revamps the defense into a full cup of mother fuging hitters.

 

Other than that we will stay at base level and not get better. If Ron has any say it in it this team will be about the same it has been.

Unfortunately dt is another need after looking at this season. Poe and kk have under perform badly this season, realistically we could cut both and sign some run stuffing dt aling with drafting one. Funchess needs to go regardless, don’t care if he accepts vet min, we can do better and should. I welcome any of our vets back if they want to go at it one more year. Williams needs to be resigned, the possibility of him and moton locking down the OT situation is to good to pass up. We’re going to have to make some high risk moves if we plan on getting this team back into Super Bowl contention imo, that means slightly over paying for a top de fa, and possibly trading up for one in the draft. Bring Reid back and pair him with a true fs, idk if the possibility of Norman coming back is still there but that would also be a great move, if not we still need to add two cbs, a nickel and another outside guy. 

Offense is set, if the moves about are made in fa, the vaule of adding another top o lineman or WR may be there and we won’t have to reach in the draft. If Olsen is able to get healthy, of course that helps but Thomas is looking good as if late. Really just have to make some aggressive moves and not get complacent. 

 

Lb is another position I’d consider drafting a guy in the first 3 rds. Shaq ain’t it, lb version of Funchess.

Try to sign an top notch DE, safety, or Offensive lineman.

Both of these guys need to retire, or the Panthers need to retire them. They've been awesome for us, but Father Time is undefeated.

Rise in Cap wont mean anything. Players will only get pay more. 

That’s if you dip into the early stages of FA. Do you think we will do so? Do you think any of our current players will get signed by us to a big payday?

We wont pay any of our players. They all need to go except Daryl. 

Agreed Daryl and Moton can beat the best tackle pair we have had and they are both young enough to start for years to come

Try like hell to sign Clowney, we about to build a practice facility in his home state sell him on playing in the Carolina's. Resign Reid on a friendly deal, we need youth he is the best we can hope for. Cut Shaq and save 9 mil.

Let Peppers/TD/Olsen/Kalil all retire, it's time to get younger.

Draft the best available DE in round 1, draft best available DT in round 2, draft a outside LB in round 3.

 

[RumHam]

Burn it down. If their contract is up, get them out and rebuild. See if Cam will take a pay cut or restructure, Short and Poe GTFO. Make sure Wright stays. Kalil post june 1 cut. Resign Williams. Trade for Jalen and JNo. Win super bowl.

On par with everything here but cutting Shaq. We're not going to replace his production with a 3rd round rookie on top of already losing an OLB with TD. Shaq stays. However, I think Clowney is as prone to taking plays off as Peppers was. We still have Addison. but #1 pick, unless it's a franchise QB for the future, should absolutely be on the next miles garrett or kalil mack.
