Panthers reportedly over the cap (though only by $1M) 8/3/2011 3:07:28 PM |
DalesDeadBug In Pressed Silk 2978 Posts user info edit post |
they can be over the cap if they choose, not sure by how much, but i think maybe until 2013?
Edit: there is a one year exception of being up to $3 million over the cap

there was a teaser on wfnz about restructuring kalil's contract to get asante samuel. anyone hear that? 8/3/2011 5:40:59 PM |

Like Hurney could pull that off. He probably doesn't even know what restructure means.

^^they weren't saying we were restructuring to pull in Samuels...they said "WE CANT AFFORD ANYONE. WE ARE ALREADY HAVING TO RESTRUCTURE PEOPLE BECAUSE WE ARE $1M OVER THE CAP" 8/3/2011 6:37:28 PM |
TreeTwista10 minisoldr 148439 Posts user info edit post |
you can be what, $3M over the cap this year and apply it against next year's cap or something?
and the 99% of cap is what the teams as a whole have to spend, not each individual team, and money like Johnson's $30M bonus went towards that 99% 8/3/2011 6:56:19 PM |

there are no salary floors until 2013
also, has Kalil signed his franchise tender? it would make sense to lock him up long term to knock his salary down by about $4-6 million for this season 8/3/2011 7:32:06 PM |

Seems kinda strange? Isn't Moss just like a poor man's Steve Smith? Give me a big guy if were going to sign another WR
Quote : | "According to a league source, the team made a strong play for free-agent receiver Santana Moss, offering him a three-year deal worth $15 million. Moss took the deal back to the Redskins, who matched it, so he elected to stay in Washington" |

Can we even afford to add Floyd at this point? I would love to have a proven tall WR to help take some coverage off of Steve Smith, but we're already over the cap by about a million. Guess we'll have to figure out Kalil's contract and get that franchise tag removed. 8/4/2011 10:43:19 AM |
Slave Famous Become Wrath 34079 Posts user info edit post |
Yeah, only 9 receivers currently make more than that, Smith included.

being over the cap by $1 million is nothing at this point. We could shave that amount to almost nothing with all of the cuts we'll make between now and opening day. 8/4/2011 11:14:51 AM |
Slave Famous Become Wrath 34079 Posts user info edit post |
BTW, if Shockey makes the team, we owe him nearly 4 mil. If we cut him, only 1 mil.
Food for thought with Olsen, Hartsock and Barnbridge in the fold.

Schefter tweeted this morning that there are 5 teams currently over the cap, and the Panthers are not one of them.

If were looking at any FA receiver, I'd prefer the other Steve Smith. But he's out till October, and it would probably too confusing anyway. 8/4/2011 1:10:19 PM |

Slave Famous Become Wrath 34079 Posts user info edit post |
I really don't think we need another big name receiver. Its not like Newton is going to be throwing 50 passes a game. Between Olsen, Smith, Gettis, Lafell, and some passes to the running backs, I think thats plenty for this year. I'd rather spend any available dollars on the defensive side of the ball. We have to face three top 10 QB's two time each every year. 8/4/2011 1:17:10 PM |
Lionheart I'm Eggscellent 12775 Posts user info edit post |
^Sure it depends on the price but none of the wr's other than smith would even be a #2 option on 90% of other teams
If we were looking for a #3 I'd completely agree but smith has been getting killed lately cause there are no other real legit threats and the hands on several of those guys are questionable. 8/4/2011 1:19:29 PM |

Edwards supposedly looking pretty good also 8/4/2011 1:23:37 PM |
Jeepin4x4 #Pack9 35774 Posts user info edit post |
^^that won't be the same with a legit route running TE, 2 healthy pass catching RBs, and a mobile quarterback. They defense won't have a chance to stack the line or double up on Smith. Gettis showed a lot of promise and Lafell has a lot of size. I expect both to be much more involved this season.
I would totally support Cotchery as a Panther, but i agree with Slave we need to write our last check on the defensive side of the ball. 8/4/2011 1:31:23 PM |

True enough about the TE angle but I just don't see it on the other WRs.
The secondary could definitely stand to get shored up on defense though. 8/4/2011 1:36:38 PM |
