they are screwed now. they were screwed right before march 11th. yet somehow they signed byrd, was able to say they kept sproles (which means they were over the cap), but after byrd they were less then a million in space, and now today they pull this off.

what are they doing paying people dimes their first year?

next response

You have no idea how pathetic this is.

Our biggest rival and we are so dominated by them that we don't even dare suggest we are gonna beat them this coming season. No. Instead, we revel in how the cap monster is gonna step in and take care of them for us.

This fan base needs an enema.

I've started to realize just how lazy other GM's are. Loomis isn't afraid to put in a little extra work coming up with creative ways to structure contracts and keep the team competitive every year despite so-called "cap issues." I see a team like the Panthers sitting on $8 million and watching their roster get decimated all because they're worried about resigning guys next year. It's pure laziness on the GM's part.

The funny part is that Cam will probably leave next year because their team will do poorly next year and a potential contender will throw him a big bone

Remember he hasn't had a payday in Carolina yet
Where's the loyalty

I can see him walking too,the franchise tag this year is close to $17ml so it would be costly to keep him.I wonder if we see a trade for him if a QB goes down

And like I said, their GM isn't smart enough to structure his new contract to reduce the cap hit in year one.

Does Caddieman know about this, or has he finally jumped off that bridge?

Draft is set up about as well as possible.
