Colin Kaepernick's unusual deal with the San Francisco 49ers continues to have reverberations across the NFL landscape. That includes the Cam Newton camp.

NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday on NFL Total Access that Kaepernick's contract -- a pact that includes just $13 million in guaranteed money -- "really scares people who know Cam Newton very well."

The structure of Kaepernick's deal essentially allows the Niners to evaluate the quarterback on a year-to-year basis. There is a fear in Newton's circle that Kaepernick's deal is a sign of things to come in how teams do business with franchise quarterbacks.

According to Rapoport, guaranteed money is what counts for Newton, who is entering the final year of his rookie deal with the Carolina Panthers. Newton wants a contract that will provide more guaranteed money and a higher yearly salary than Kaepernick received.

Talks between the Panthers and Newton have yet to begin. According to Rapoport, Newton's people are simply waiting for the Panthers to start a dialogue.

You can safely assume that the agents for Newton and Andy Dalton won't be breaking bread with Kaepernick's people any time soon.

Figured as much,  I've been saying for a while that he will be the highest paid player in NFL history when he gets his contract. 

 

 

I've tossed out the contract values before but look at something along these lines for Cam. 

 

6 years-141 million - 65-70 guaranteed. 

 

 

 

 

He's going to get it too. lol

no need to contact them now. it's not really a pressing matter. they got the fifth year extension for a reason...they don't want to deal with it right now and they won't. maybe during the season they might start, but right now there's not really a need so no....not really interesting.

I think Cam and his agent give Gman a big middle finger if our Oline/WRs don't add up this season and his production suffers because of it,   and Gman tries to use that dropoff as a way to severely lowball Cam.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By PootieNunu · Posted

      Dude had more games under 150 passing yards last season than he did games over 200 passing yards.  Hes still the same QB whatever improvement you few guys are seeing is marginal at best and mostly due to a better cast and OL, not the player himself.

      *someone posts an offseason fluff pic of Bryce Young trying out a new look*   *WW3 commences*   Never change, Huddle.

      thank you for spending your time digging back into my comments on Bryce from his rookie year to try and contradict what I am saying on him 3 years later. that makes total sense. I am man enough to admit that when I used to drunk post on here during game days in his rookie year, I was not happy with his performance. opinions can change and he has done enough since then to have me feeling positive about where the team is heading and the position we are in to evaluate for another season. people like you completely box themselves into a corner though of only seeing the negative and not admitting when they are wrong. I am happy that my stance has changed and that I only resorted to a few drunk posts 3 years ago rather than spending every day racking up thousands of posts over the course of his 4 year career.
