REPORT: Panthers highly unlikely to trade DJ Moore

Regarding cap space, I would guess that several players will be gone next year.  Elflein almost definitely.  Shaq Thompson maybe.  Those two alone clear up 17 million in cap space.  

17 m?

Bozeman and Burns will likely take 30m to resign on a friendly structure. The rookies with all our picks another 10m+. Not to even mention other resigns.

Guess you could wait on Burns with the risk of pissing him off and having a more impactful structure.

But that’s nothing. Ideally, around 30m-40m should be the minimum.

For a perpetual 5 win team….double to triple that would make more sense but alas here we are.

I guess there is some rollover too, I still think there will be a disappointing name or two that we can’t keep and yet again will not be able to grab the best FAs.

Also need to account for future contracts.

Fact is paying Djax, Anderson, Thomas, Darnold, and Shaq (yes I know that’s a long time ago but still) were really, really stupid moves and set this franchise back. Plus dead money from whoever else.

Like why even fire Hurney?

No way I would trade him. Hopefully he stays out. Makes no sense to me to trade DJ.

Some of y'all forget how difficult it is to find a wr like DJ. Need another 2015 season in terms of WR?

Because dumb?

You seem very concerned about cap space yet seem to have no clue of the ramifications of what trading Moore would to the cap.

This is a trade that would make me mad over any other.

I'm glad you're not a cap manager, because you would suck at your job if Burns+Bozeman=30M in year one of a deal. Thank God the Panthers have smarter cap people than you.

Agreed. And the Giants just traded a first round WR who is all the things Panthers fans would have eviscerated DJ Moore for being. We could do so much worse. And for the sake of clarity take a look at the all time Panthers receiving list and tell me we are in position to jettison a talented receiver and we will just back ourselves into another one because we're that lucky.

This 100%.  “Let’s trade away DJ Moore and have Shi Smith be our #1!  We can draft a new receiver, it might even be someone like DJ Moore!”

[Jaxel]

I think Moore is off the table unless it's just an outrageous offer. Like if the giants decided they can compete and sent 2 first round picks and some change for him or something like that. Otherwise I think Panthers are very happy with his contact and his skills and have no reason to move him.

Moore ramifications would be for the future not right now. And but I already said I was against trading Moore. But because there is no one behind him not for any other reason.

Just throwing out random numbers but I don’t see how it won’t be close. But please do tell if Bozeman keeps playing at a high level and Burns ends up with 15 sacks or whatever, what a premier DE and above average olineman would cost?

Burns is already making more than half that on a 5th year.

Myles Garrett signed a 5 year deal. Year one cap hit is $9M. I'd expect Burns inital cap hit as $6M-7M.

We’re gonna be targeting a qb with our first round pick and that person would basically be without any quality vet receivers. That is a no go for me. I don’t care if dj isn’t in our “window.” We need a good receiver (I think dj can be great with a talented qb) to help in those first couple of years.
