thoughts on the cuts...so far

[DynastyRTR]

according to http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2010/03/06/1293084/fox-on-contract-limbo-not-going.html , by cutting Kemo, Lewis, Diggs, and Johnson, we saved about $12 million(enough to pay Delhomme). So they have no excuse of why they aren't going after FA's even though it is just the second day of Free agency. So they have about $20 million(from not franchising peppers) or however much to spend on improving this team.

That 12 million is spread out into 2-3 years anyway, so there is plenty of money but they will not sign any big $$ FA. Look for the Panthers to get cheaper young prospects to fill the depth chart before or after the draft.

There not going to spend a dime on the FA, they would rather build the team from the draft, which we have done pretty good in doing over the past few years.

[Delhommey]

It's not the cuts I have a problem with.

[Murph]

Extensions for Williams, Beason & Kalil please. Then, during the season, if T. Davis is back to his old self and Moore continues to impress, extensions for them also. If Jeff King can be extended on the cheap, do him too.

with all the holes we have.We have to get some FA

but the only thing I do not like.Is Brayton leaving

[DynastyRTR]

I atleast want to see a semi-big name like antonio bryant come in and maybe will witherspoon...

One reason a lot of teams that aren't desperate won't be jumping into the free agent market is the 2011 season. No one knows if there will be play that year and why throw guaranteed money at some hired gun on a year with no games.

Also, who knows if there will be a salary cap if there is going to be play in 2011. I'd be very cautious or we could end up in salary cap hell in 2012.

Leave it to the Chicagos, St. Louises and Detroits of the league to go apesh*t and set themselves up for more headaches for a shot at one year of respectability.
