Why does Pat Y say we only have 40mil to spend?

Dwill wasn't that injured and could have came back and played a few games after getting injured from what I've heard. He will get payed, I think both want Dwill in Charlotte.

Also another thing, I just don't see CJ turning down the massive contract he's about to be offered by Carolina. Plus he wants to stay in Charlotte.

Very possible, but neither you nor I know for sure if DW was injured (they are paid a lot of money to play the game) nor can we trust statements CJ has made-I have heard both sides, actually. His tweets are one source.

I am not saying DW is done, but if he was not hurt, he should have INSISTED on playing. He was in a contract year. The NFL doesn't even pull starters much because stats are so much of the contract. If Fox thinks he was given DW a break or using him to stick the man, then he did DW no favors. I do not buy the argument that he was not hurt.

How many teams can say they got their money's worth signing RBs to second contracts? Not many. How many teams can you name who do a good job of parting with players before they start a downward spiral. Pittsburgh, New England come to mind. AFC super bowl representatives 7 of the last 10 years.

Those people that think that all of the sudden we are going to spend big money on free agents are probably going to be really disappointed. Our FO doesn't like to spend big on free agents because they believe that if those players were really that good they wouldn't be free agents.

In other words free agents are almost always overrated and/or overpriced.

would agree 95% of the time however this year there is a guy who most def is not overrated and while likely will command a very high price, i feel a shut down corner is a must especially in our division facing brees/colston, ryan/white and now freeman/williams.

Namdi would be well worth the money he commands.
