Alright, bear with me here. I'm not one to make stupid threads but I think this is something seriously in question. Gettleman has yet to put any decent faces in on the OL since he's been here. Newton is constantly getting beat up and doesn't have many weapons around him when he does have time. Gettleman doesn't seem to be too generous with the money and is probably going to try to get Newton on a bargain coming off a bad season. So, question is, does this affect Newton's contract signing? What do you guys think?

It's almost as if DG is trying to sabotage Cam's career. If i was Cam, I'd never sign another contract to play for DG. Starting the season with Bell and Chandler as the starting Tackles(and seeming totally fine with it) is beyond moronic.

Gman is worrying me. I like a lot of what he's done but the rest is just plain fugin scary.

He made his feelings known about Cam since his first day here.

Cam was lucky we had a winning season last year. I'm a huge criticizer of Cam, but def worry about his future here in Carolina. This is not what you want in a 4th year QB; esp a no1 pick.

Seriously? He played college football at Auburn and grew up in Georgia. Get the fug out of here. That's not even what's in question

 

A significant percentage of the 'fanbase' questions rather or not the guy can read a defense. The FO has put him behind Byron Bell and Nate Chandler. They released the best WR in team history. It is a credible to his abilities that the WR core has been as effective as it has been. I wouldn't blame Cam if he left.

If I'm his agent, there are no contract discussions until there is a legit effort to protect him. I'm telling Gettleman you have two years to protect my guy. He'll play under the option next year and then you can franchise him for a year after that. Good luck fitting a 2nd tag under the cap and that's what you'll have to do to rent him for another year if you don't protect him.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
