Year 2 carries a cap hit of $8.3 million and Year 3 carries a cap hit of $9.8 million. There are two voidable years (2022 and 2023) at the end of the contract that void if Paradis is on the roster after Super Bowl LVI (Feb. 2022).Here’s a brief explanation of how those void years work from Nick Korte at Over the Cap:The Panthers can split this $3.6 million cap hit into two chunks if they give Paradis a contract extension.There’s no denying that Hurney used some creative accounting to get this deal done. I’m not the biggest fan of adding $3.6 million in dead money to the salary cap four years from now, but if the Panthers can come to terms on a contract extension within the next three years it will work out alright for both parties. And for what it’s worth, Korte thinks the Panthers got a good deal for Paradis.The Carolina Panthers have signed free agent center Matt Paradis to a three-year Stitched DJ Moore Jersey , $27 million contract according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter.Paradis has spent his career with the Denver Broncos after being selected in the sixth round of the 2014 NFL Draft. He spent his college career at Boise State.The Panthers needed to add a center to the roster after Ryan Kalil announced his retirement last year. Paradis brings the Panthers some much-needed veteran stability at arguably the most important position on the offensive line, and his relative youth (he’s only 29) allows them to potentially give him a second contract if the first three years work out in their favor.Paradis will be required to pass a physical before the contract becomes official. He was placed on injured reserve by the Broncos in November after suffering a broken leg, but has claimed that he is healthy and ready to go in 2019.Assuming there are no snags with the physical, this signing allows the Panthers to focus on other positions of need with their first picks in the upcoming draft. Former N.C. State standout center Garrett Bradbury was among those rumored to be on Carolina’s radar in the first round, but now that the Panthers have locked up Paradis for the next three years they can shift their focus to a pass rusher or offensive tackle with the No. 16 overall pick.What do you think of this move, Panthers fans? Share your thoughts with us! The Carolina Panthers need to solidify their pass rush. The front four struggled to get consistent pressure without help from blitzes Baby DJ Moore Jersey , and there’s no one on the roster to turn to for extra help in the coming season. Future Hall of Famer Julius Peppers announced his retirement last week. Remarkably, his five sacks at age 38 were the second most on the team behind Mario Addison, who will be a spry 32 years old when next season starts. Marquis Haynes and Efe Obada are the only other two defensive ends under contract next season, and neither have proven anything at the NFL level. It would make sense for the Panthers to spend an early pick on a defensive end. Unfortunately, that position is one of the most difficult positions at which to find a starter in the draft. The below chart shows how how often defensive ends turn into regular starters compared to the average at or after the Panthers’ picks in each round. These numbers are from the 2008 to 2017 drafts. AV/Year is Pro Football Reference’s Approximate Value divided by the number of years since the player was drafted. Defensive ends perform below the average in every metric I calculated. Only 39% of defensive ends drafted at or after the Panthers pick in the first round have started at least half their team’s games and only 13% have started at least 75% of their team’s games. They’ve also had a lower Approximate Value (which is PFR’s attempt to measure the impact of a player with a single number) than the average. On the bright side, the sixteenth spot has seen its fair share of good names get selected. Ryan Kerrigan Best DJ Moore Jersey , Derrick Morgan, and former CSR draft day favorite Quinton Coples were all taken with the No. 16 pick, and two have those have gone on to have solid to great careers. This draft is supposedly deep with edge rushers. The Panthers may elect to take a chance on one, but history says there’s a good chance that pick won’t pan out the way the Panthers hope.
