Shaq Thompson and Bradberry

[CAPantherFan]

Sorry if this was already a topic but these two

guys are absolute stud and HAVE to be resigned.  Where are they with their contracts and do we give them max contacts?

[trucpfan]

I don’t know about max but a decent healthy contract for both. BB deserves a check I’m just not sure he’ll be able to live up to a big contract. Shaqs looking good in his first year in this position still early in the season for his extension talks.

[Pejorative Miscreant]

BB just quietly performs.

If they keep up this Pro Bowl performances what are we looking at yearly salary wise for Bradberry and Thompson respectively?

[Cpt slay a ho]

Shaq shouldn’t get too much of a raise from what he’s getting paid now, bradberry will 

[JawnyBlaze]

Bradberry obviously. Close to max contract. Shaq, not max hell no, but a decent contract? We’ll see how the season plays out. 

[electro's horse]

they need to extend one of them right meow

[LinvilleGorge]

Max contracts? When did this turn into the NBA?

Before the season we thought Shaq was making a lot. Now that 9 million he is making this season is a bargain. The man will get pay well. It’s always the next man up. Kwon Alexander got 13.5 a year and Mosley got 17 this past offseason. Shaq will be getting a nice big raise.

I do think Bradberry is worth top three money at his position. Closest to a shutdown corner that we have since prime Norman.

Shaq, although only in his first full-time season. He has only been average until this season. I don't consider him elite, he's just above average whom benefits from Luke. I think our backups aren't a terrible drop off. I'm thinking just an above average contract for his position for continuity purposes otherwise let him go.

He’s a slightly worse version of Chris Gamble.  You never heard from Gamble cause teams totally stopped throwing at him like ever. Even after he got his pay day he still balled out and you heard nothing from him. One of the better Panther defenders ever to wear the uniform. People just forget about him cause the dude was so quiet lol

Well, Hurney freed up cap space this year. Too bad that he did so by pretty much guaranteeing that we keep Short in 2020. Such a stupid move since that just eats up an extra $14M we could have used for these two. Well at least Short’s playing balls to the wall this year and last so I’m sure he’ll be worth $14M next year. 

Incorrect.

We save 14 million if we designate Short as post-June 1.  KK has *no* guarantee.

Wrong, June 1st just spreads the hit over 2 years. That can of course be a nice short term tool, but does not help to afford long term deals for both Bradbury and Shaq.

What are you planning on doing with that other 11M?
