June 1st Cuts

[DaveThePanther2008]

Well June 1st is looming and some teams may be parting with players to save money.  I just read an article where GB may depart ways with 

K-Mason Crosby, LB-Ty Summers and DL Dean Lowry.

Has one heard of other names that we might be interested in?

we'll probably be looking at LBs an DTs....no pass rushers worth anything will be let go because they're too valuable.  Rhule said he wanted a LT, QB and pass rusher, and we got the first 2 in the draft.

This. Anything the will help then run D. We need help pretty equally at DT and ILB so we'll probably look at those.

I also just read where Quinn wants out of Chicago.

He's 32 and had a career year last year with 18.5 sack.  I am sure part of his success was because he was opposite K. Mack who is now in SD.

He's under contract until 2024.

Need for Panthers to cut Derrick Brown. Send a message to the team.

It will also send a message that the FO is stupider than we think.  Cut a Starting DT on a rookie salary because he isn’t progressing like we think he should. Backfill him with someone that plays about the same but costs more.

I was half way joking around when I said that. I know we can’t cut him now but this is a huge year for him. Did they pick up his option yet?

Not sure about the option.  Apologies I took the post as literal.

Mostly you're correct.  However some teams draft replacement player (1st rounders) and would be looking to play them and save money with the rookies.  And if I am correct, June 1st cuts gives them the opportunity to spread the money out over a couple of years. (100% if that is correct)

Message to team:  Panther front office leaders are dumbasses.

At 32 we might be able to trade a low round pick and maybe they pick up some of his money.  He'd be a good match with Burns on the other side.

You can't pick up a player's 5th year option in their 3rd year. Dude's trolling.
