The Panthers can save $11 million if they cut him post June 1st. He aint' gonna make it at $15 million for 6-7 sacks.


In Panther's eyes, he only is getting paid $11mil for 6-7 sacks. That $4mil is gone either way


Where would they spend that money anyways? They need OT, S, DE and WR

OT- Michael Oher was solid and Daryl Williams looked great until injury. No reason to sign a FA should go draft
S- Coleman and Harper are solid for 2017 so smart move is draft not FA
WR- There aren't any good FA WRs this year and they have Benjie/Ginn/Funchess + will likely draft somoene.
DE- No good 4-3 DEs, which is an expensive position to begin with



They should be able to resign Star & Short in 2016 while keeping Johnson. That will give them a ton of room in 2017 when Johnson falls off and their DEs are on rookie contracts

Throw a healthy Benjamin into that WR core, and things should get better quickly... his skill set is so different than their other main targets.

I really thought Funchess played well for them... he seemed to have the most sure hands in the games I watched. I was also impressed with Brown.

They need more speed at RB IMO... Outside of Whitaker, the other three guys are slow as hell.
