Free Agents in new CBA= players4/5/6 years

[Kurb]

What does this mean for us ?

One of you nerds with links and charts and poo give us a rundown of which of our players this would affect.

current roster (minus draft picks) and year that they hit free agency as things are now....

[Kurb]

Reps

According to peter king, if they are currently undercontract they are unaffected.

Which makes no sense, but thats peter king...

Relax, folks. All players with four years or more of credited service AND WHO ARE UNSIGNED NOW would be free.

[The Saltman]

it makes sense. If they were tendered a restricted offer and didnt sign it than they are still free as long as they have been in the league for 4 years or more.

[Kurb]

I was mis-understanding the tweets.

Media talking about how "huge" this was.

meh, TWSS

[The Saltman]

just means that what happened last year won't happen once the CBA is signed. So free agency will be freaking crazy.

Let me do the math. We're $70 million under cap, we require spend 93 percent of our cap... And free agent market will be floaded with talent? You know what it means??? Shopping spree, bitches!

D. Williams= UFA

CJ= UFA

Jeff King= UFA

Rosario= UFA

Hayden= RFA

Anderson= UFA

Davis= UFA

Marshall= UFA

[The Saltman]

wrong CJ is UFA, Rosario is a UFA

...

josephperson Panthers would have 19 UFAs under ('09) rules, incl. DeAngelo Williams, James Anderson, Charles Johnson, Dante Rosario, Ryan Kalil (tagged).

basically it's just rolling back the clock to '09 and everyone who should have been able to become UFAs will become that. in some areas this could hurt, but it has the same effect (more or less) on other teams.

2007-2008 1 year

2008-2009 1 year

2010-2011 1 year

signing all of our UFAs

Cam Newton(even with the cap)

extending Jon Beason

Barry Coefield

bye bye 70 million dollars. I hope we front load all of those contracts too. Cap heaven. Richardson's salary purge sure sucked but hopefully we forget about that quick and win games again.
