The Panthers have how much cap space?

Is there an "official" cap source? It would be nice if he posted a source.

Anyway, here are two sources that seem to disagree. The figure does depend on timing.

Albert Breer posted cap space from an official NFL internal memo last week that had us at $5.9M. So if you add the $1.8M from Torrey’s release then factor in two minimum contracts to get to 53(since offseason is the top 51) plus the practice squad that should put us around $6M and change. I’m thinking someone added in an extra 1 in front of our number by mistake because $6.5M makes sense.

9 million.  They are always a few days late after signings and guys getting cut but that is were to find the official numbers the NFL uses.

Says that is a top 51 report so wouldn’t include 2 minimum contacts and likely the practice squad which would total a little over $2M.

Practice squad players do not count against the cap number.  They never have.  The top 51 stays at the top of the page, even during the season.  They should change it but they don't during the regular season. 

The link and the numbers listed are the official numbers used by the NFL.  You can add and subtract things all you want but the NFL doesn't.

Practice squad players absolutely count against the cap

    • I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔
    • I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.
    • I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
