Cam behind only Peyton Manning as the most marketable player

Nice write by David Newton on Cam's marketability. Well worth a read.

Fleming says his client's national portfolio is the strongest of anybody in the NFL outside of Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning. Paired with his new deal with the Panthers, which pays him just over $20 million per season, Newton's endorsement income should reach eight figures in 2015. He should become the highest-paid NFL player not named Manning.

oh wee

Fleming and Newton have been selective. The idea isn't to oversaturate the market or take on obligations that will take Newton's focus from football.

Here's a nice quote:

Dannon chose Newton over Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson as it looked for a representative who was more appealing to men than Stamos. That Newton also resonates with women didn't hurt. "When you go to make advertising that is appealing to a broad audience, it really is about having appeal with both men and women," said Michael Neuwirth, the head of public relations at Dannon. "You can't apologize for being attractive in life."

:cam:

Cam signing this extension is a milestone for the Carolina Panthers franchise. Heck, he's the first starting quarterback that's been drafted and signed to a second contract. Now we can all finally sit back and watch our own superstar do his thing.

Let phase two begin.

8 figures in one year of endorsements or his whole career. Thats alot either way.

​11 million in 2015. He'll make 42 million including his signing bonus this year. If he's making that much, Cam will make crazy money when he wins Superbowls! He'll make more in endorsements than salary eventually just like Messi and Ronaldo.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
