No. This trade saves us a little over $7M over two years. Trading Turner for a pick or releasing him would have saved $20M. This wasn’t done to clear cap for any big deals. It’s a little better over two years but for this year it’s actually worse by a lot. It’s 2021 where we save by not having Turner. If Okung plays well great, but it doesn’t seem like it will help Little develop at all.

Wouldn't that help us pay players long term though?

If that was the goal then wouldn’t $13M more be better than a one year rental of a guy who missed 10 games last year? Did we learn nothing from spending $15M on Paradis and Williams last year? I just don’t buy the cap savings and that’s why I have no clue what our objectives are.

Thats an odd way to look at it.  It saves 11 mil next year not 7 over 2 years.

You missed factoring in Turners salary.  It is not a salary dump if you take on 13 million. Panthers are trying their best to confuse the league and its fans. The panthers are trying hard to win and lose at the same time.  

Except all the "trust the process ones"/ your dumb lolz ones. Blind homers

somewhat, but we added 3 million more this year. stbug had it right save 20 million(roughly), but added 13. If it was a effort to gain cap, just cut Turner and avoid taking on Okung at 13 million for this season.

There no guarantee Okung can play, lungs with blood clots is VERY life or death serious. Family member got that, nearly died. Had to be on oxygen 24/7 and lost 1/2 his strength. Its no joke, kills nearly 100k usa each year.

Right so if we pay $3M more this year and save $10.5M next year the. We save $7.5M total over the next two years. The salary cap rolls over so whatever we don’t use this year rolls over to 2021. You don’t think about one year versus the next. The extra $3M we use this year doesn’t get rolled over like it would have if we didn’t make the trade.

If you wanted a salary dump for next year then you trade Turner for a pick. If you do that you carry over $10M you save this year and you get $20.5M next year, way more than $7.5M.

From your explanation above, it sounds to me that they're neither "total rebuilding" nor "win now".

Sounds like they're trying to split the baby.

Now THAT'S a tried and true formula for success.

No way Herniay can rebuild/tank AND go to the playoff in the same season....right?!?!?

To answer your question, I don't think our not extending Bradberry is because we don't think we can afford it. I think we could then and we still can now after the trade. It seems the Panthers have decided that the $15 million per year that Bradberry wants is more than we think he's worth. If he's willing to come down from that price or that market never develops for him, I don't think we would/should close the door on resigning him. I suspect though with too many teams flush with cap space and the lack of premier free agent cb options, someone will probably give him the contract he wants.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
