Who Is Still On The Roster Next Season?

If I am cho I keep the following:

Kemba - due to make roughly 2.6 mil next year with a two year team option the following offseason and a qualifying option for 2015.

Hendo - has a 4.2 mil one year offer sheet on the table this offseason.

Bismack - due to make roughly 3 mil next year with a two year team option the following offseason and a qualifying option for 2015.

Derrick (bench) - UFA

Mullens (bench) - 2.2 club option for the upcoming season and a qualifying offer the following year of a little over 3 mi.

DJ White (bench) - 1 yr. 3 mil remaining

Wiliams (bench) - 1 yr. 2.5 mil remaining

Thomas (bench) - 3 yr. 26 mil remaining (roughly). Considering he is pretty much untradable due to his contract I think you keep him coming off the bench. He has shown flashes of his old self rarely..but more so towards the end of the season.

Contract Obligations:

Carroll - is in the last year of his deal..making 3.5ish..might be attractive to a team for his expiring...if not just keep him inactive.

Diop - is owed 7.3 next year..but is also in the last year of his deal..might be a nice expiring for a team. if not just keep him inactive.

Maggette - is owed 10.9 and is also going to be in the last year of his deal...he might be more likely to be delt..if healthy..due to his expiring. If not..just let him expire..freeing up even MORE capspace.

Cut/Release Candidates

Eduardo - is a UFA..so he isn't coming back (if i am GM).

Augustin - did not sign his offer sheet..so if he isn't delt on draft day..he is probably walking for nothing.

Higgins - is gone (if i am GM).

Moon - is gone (if I am GM)

I really see the 'Cats as a good bench squad...especially with Mullens, Brown, Wiliams, and White. Kemba, Hendo, and Biz are probably going to start along with Maggette. Add a rookie to the bench and hopefully Davis..this is team is still staring at a top five pick next year. Hopefully that will be Shabazz Muhammad. Just my two cents.

Augustin will still be a RFA so we can match whatever offer he gets from another team if we want to. Other than that I'm pretty much with you.

One thing we need to keep in mind is we still have the amnesty clause we can use. I feel like we are another year away from going after some big free agents, so I don't think we will use it. Still Thomas would probably be my choice if we did. Carroll, DIop and Maggette will all be off the books after next year. If we amnesty Thomas we would have LOADS of cap space.

If anything, the 'Cats will be in GREAT shape a year from in terms of cap space and young talent.

I agree that Thomas may be an amnesty candidate...especially with how well Mullens and White seem to be playing off the bench. A crowded front line with the addition of Davis (hopefully) will further justify that case.

If there were not contracts and obligations..I would only want to keep a handful of guys:

Kemba, Henderson, Bismack, Mullens, Augustin, Williams, White, and maybe Derrick Brown.

Most of them would be decent role players/bench guys and are young enough with enough potential to be considered assets and trade peices. There maybe two or three decent starters in the group one day..Henderson/Kemba/Biz. Add a draft pick this year and two next year...things would be looking up.

      So what's the plan with Moton?

      By PNW_PantherMan · Posted

      With all the money invested in the offensive line, we really need to hit on some Round 1-3 picks.  We could really use a star receiver or pass rusher on a rookie contract for a few years.

      Bryce QB School Week 12

      By strato · Posted

      I understand everyone being happy but let's try not to turn it into another schoolgirl crush festival. No offense. It isn't slower WRs that cause wild overthrows. They have all kinds of practice. It is his mechanics keeping things under control that allows a more efficient conversion of energy, let's call it, into the throw, that we are seeing.  He was doing it with horrible mechanics and needing to put 100% effort to get the ball that far. That totally fugs your accuracy. There is video of Mahomes and Carr on this site that I have linked with them throwing under control vs all out trying to get the most velocity on a radar gun. It shows exactly what I am saying. I didn't make it up. I have been telling y'all for a year at least. It really is all about the margins with Young and he has to be very attentive to his technique to get the most from what he has. He is doing that now and this is the new 'what he can do'. And this is it, there ain't no more. You decide if that's enough for you I guess. But you are noticing better ball flight and zip I am pretty sure, it comes from there. Again go look at the Buffalo drive in preseason and you will see that same thing you see lately. To do that stuff you have to be willing to stand tall come what may, sometimes. Hopefully you have protection to step up safely but the difference making happens when you stand in there and finish just ahead of a hit.  ..... And btw, the straw that broke the camel's back when Tepper fired Reich, was because he couldn't fix it in a week. One of the last issues that I remember was about Young's footwork. You know, I guess it is normal that 10 weeks into the season someone just realized, or finally accepted, that Young had major fundamentals issues. It took them a lot longer to realize it isn't an overnight fix. And my issues with Young were specifically over this stuff. Major rehab job, you don't pay what we paid for that. Hopefully he is 'fixed' and it 'took' and he doesn't go back into his little safe space of the old mechanics like he did week 1. If he hangs with the new, this is what you are working wth now. We just saw his ceiling.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      i'm not nearly 100%, but i'm trending that way. He's definitely got me around 75%.
