Wow that Gamble figure is something. Everyone else is deserving.

[NJPanthers12]

[Cat'sGrowl]

And it's no coincidence those are the best players on the team.

[Carolina Crazy V2]

[TwinkleToes]

Not liking travelle or gamble in that club

I was just reading over this...I hope we make some changes come next year, I dont see how we will have any cap room in the future.

[jtnc]

Finding a replacement for Wharton would be ideal.

The leagues salary cap will increase year to year (television revenue), not to mention other players coming off the books etc. The cap is fine, also unless I'm mistaken we're under the cap and once Kalil's contract is extended that will free up more space as well.

Yeah!

And then cut Smitty! And Olsen as well! Make sure you ship Gross and Kalil down the road while you're at it too!!

I read his salary wrong.

Wasn't Wharton penciled in as our starting LT when he got that contract?
