Huddle question: Do they pay Cam next year?

Kaepernick's Deal:

 

12.5 Million signing bonus spread evenly over 5 years.

 

Salary is a gradual increase: (2015-$12.4M, 2016-$13.9M, 2017-$16.5M, 2018-$17M, 2019-$18.8M)

 

Essentially, they're only paying Kaepernick $14.4 next season which is totally reasonable.  I can see us doing a similar deal with Cam.

They'll pay him. I don't think he's worth the money though. They could pay him two hundred million and he still wouldn't be as good as Drew Brees.

 

Too many QBs are getting these big contracts. Probably only Aaron Rodgers, Manning, Brady and Brees are worth the money.

 

Cam has never won a playoff game. His stats have gotten worse each year since his rookie year. It seems most defenses have figured out how to immobilize him and his contemporaries (minus Wilson who isn't just running a gimmick and has a natural ability to use his mobility to buy his receivers time).

 

But there is no alternative to Cam. If we were 1-15 we could go with Mariota or Winston but there's no FA out there better than Cam currently. We'll pay him and be the ATL Falcons for half a decade or so with perennial horrible defense and lack of supporting cast and and a QB who simply can't do it alone.

Dude stop bashing people and contributing jack poo, if you don't think we should pay Cam then go and watch the Jets Bills and Browns for a couple of weeks.

 

Then realise that if they added Cam to any of their rosters they'd be top 10 teams.  

 

quit making up crap! stay in context.

Let's just keep drafting a new quarterback every other year like the Browns and Jaguars. It's clearly been working out well for them.

I don't think we pay him this coming season, no. I think Gettleman is going to use the looming franchise tag as a bargaining chip, and then slap it on Cam at the end of next season, only to proceed to get a deal done immediately after.

    • Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games. 
    • I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
    • Is it possible for someone to regress in maturity as they age or has Steve really just been a jerk his entire life?
