Moton, Hunt, and Lewis by themselves combines for ~68 million of the cap

Cutting bad contracts like Shy Tuttle, Miles Sanders, Dane Jackson, and Yosh Nijman would opening up ~18 million

Extending Horn and Moton would open up more space this season also

I read where some said they were going to cut Clowney and Wonnum to save $15m.  I don't see it.  Wonnum?  Maybe.

I could see where at least one of them goes. Panthers are definitely drafting an Edge this year. Maybe bringing in another vet. Clowney and Wonnum are paid too much to be backups.

I cannot see them releasing both as they are thin at the position as it is. If anything their backups should be worried about having a job here next season. Barno and Johnson are not cutting it.

Barno was injured most of the season, but that is part of it.

I strongly think they need to extent Wonnum, not cut him. 

In fact I was going to make a thread with the title of "Who should the Panthers extent?" Bypass the horn or icky easy TD and listed Wonnum as my choice.

Per Mike Kaye, Charlotte Observer 

▪ Impending free agents: If this beat writer was in Brady Christensen’s shoes, I’d look to head elsewhere for better pay and a guaranteed starting job. But if he can’t and that opportunity, the Panthers getting him back would be a huge boost for the ofensive line. Otherwise, the rest of the re-signing options are pretty much toss-ups.

Long snapper JJ Jansen and punter Johnny Hekker have value beyond their job titles. Cornerback Mike Jackson, tight end Tommy Tremble and wide receiver David Moore really t in well with the culture, and all three played well in pretty big spots this season.

Andy Dalton wants to return, and with Bryce Young in the QB1 seat, keeping that room together makes sense.

Feleipe Franks and Sam Franklin are logical targets for re-signing because of their value on special teams. Re-signing Austin Corbett and Cade Mays to compete at center is a logical, costeective strategy that seems to align with the way the Panthers will approach their already expensive trench group

This is pretty much what I wanted to say except I'm not sure about Corbett unless it's cheap and because he's an experienced vet who helps the others with professionalism. THat's the same reason I'd keep Dalton. Coaches on the team has a lot of value. Shaq could be another. Depends on money. Shaq definitely wants to play here.

    • I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.
    • I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--
    • After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
