EDGE FA left.

[My Goodness My Guinness]

Good lord, did anyone realize Cameron Wake is 37? He's only been in the league for like 9 years, did he serve in the military or something prior?

Everyone though the top edge guys wouldn't make it to us at 16

2 teams who were projected to draft a Edge guy ahead of us have addressed that need in FA.  So a Sweat or Burns may fall

Plz lordt,  Sweat or Burns would be huge.

Knew this day was coming...Happy Thomas gets to keep playing but said to see him go.

If the Panthers don't win it all, I already know who I'll be rooting for

Detroit has been the most commonly mocked spot for Sweat.  They just signed Trey Flower to 17 mil a year.

 

Greenbay has been the most mocked spot for Burns.  They just spent a Lot signing 2 Big edge rushers

[Chosen Newton]

We need to sign Ziggy Ansah and then draft Sweat or Burns. 

Amazing how the Panthers have more cap room than the saints, yet the saints are inquiring and making moves, while we sit around eating bojangles. That’s the difference between a competent front office and a joke. Get hurney and Ron outta there

[Soul Rebel]

Still hoping for a trade with the Browns for Ogbah. Outside of a 1-yr bridge signing like Ansah, the rest of FA edge rushers are very meh for me. 

Good thing we are investing in the likes of Torrey Smith and Colin Jones.... who needs an extra $6M right now, right?

No doubt we are zeroing in on a DE at 16, but we still need another player in here....Addison, at 31 years old, isn't doing it for me in '19....nor beyond.

[carpanfan96]

players with no double digit sack totals are getting 16-17m a season from teams to rush the qb. wtf is wrong with these teams. lmao

So the Panthers lost starters at:

safety

nickel

linebacker

defensive end

defensive tackle

#1 wide receiver

offensive tackle

And they only have $17M in cap space and can't go after any free agents? What the bloody hail is going on around here?!

The list has few more added holes to fill and FA shopping has failed miserably and may have to totally rely on draft now.

Agree, but I just can't understand how you lose all of those starting salaries and only have $17M left to show for it.

This team has been the toughest riddle to solve and one that may never get solved.

There are a number of vets that can be cut to free up cap space, but Ron prefers overpaid, mediocre vets he knows rather than gambling on FAs who might just be mediocre too but at least MIGHT be an upgrade.

Ron likes his friends.  They make him feel all warm and cozy.
