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.

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
