Depends on who is there in the 4th and later. Nothing wrong with spending a late round flier on a QB if we have met our needs for the most part. Cam and DA are good to have, but after watching what happened to Arizona this year, I definitely think we need a 3rd option.

if you ever have to go to your third option your season is done. and we have joe webb atm.

What is the point if Cam will be here for the next seven or so years at least (as he should be)?

 

 

You realize Cam got injured 2 times this year and had a fairly major surgery to recover from to start off the season. He alos probably had more hits than any other starting qb.   Not all qb s bodies last for 10-12  years or more.  I would say at this rate there is a fair chance Cam may need to hang up the cleats in a few more years whether he wants to or not..

Really? That's a bit absurd. He's only 25.

 

The best way to keep Cam healthy is to keep building our OL, and we can start by finding a real left tackle.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
