PANTHERS HACK HARTWIG
The Carolina Panthers have continued to move toward a dramatically revamped offensive line in 2008 with the release of starting center Justin Hartwig.
The move was first reported by Steve Reed of CarolinaGrowl.com and confirmed by Charles Chandler of the Charlotte Observer.
The Panthers had signed Hartwig to a five-year, $17 million contract in 2006, after he spent the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Titans. The move creates more than $2.15 million in 2008 cap room.
Hartwig most likely will be replaced in the starting lineup by Ryan Kalil, a second-round draft pick in 2007.

So are we interested? Center/interior Line help is a big need at this point IMO. We weren't going to pay the ridiculous amount for Faine, and while Goodwin played well, we don't know for sure that he is the answer at Center for a whole season.
Hartwig has a lot of starting experience. He was cut to clear caproom and give Kalil the chance to start. I really don't know that much about him, so maybe someone can shed some light.
