Will Cam want to renegotiate his contract after another MVP season?

Current market value was exactly what it was but i guarantee cam reaching out and saying he wanted a contract that would benefit the team is not what happened read again what are responded too.

I have no idea what your last sentence means, but I didn't say he wouldn't renegotiate or that he specifically asked for a 'team-friendly' deal. I simply said that he understands that winning is in his best interest and that he wouldn't be demanding to be the top-paid player every year. For example, his contract includes de-escalator for not completing workouts, something that other top-paid QBs do not have in theirs.

Then where did cam say he would take less money??

 

That's not how you making a guarantee works. It's not my job to prove the assumption you are making is a fact. Neither of us know so you cannot guarantee. I would say the fact that he wasn't the highest paid QB even at the time of signing is evidence it was not a priority of his.

No. The earliest he renogotiates his deal is the start of his last year under contract. By then starting QB's will average 17 or 18 per year. Including the scrubs. So I see him taking 21 per year cause he A:(Isn't a money whore) B:(Understands the importance of having a good roster around him unlike Luck and Brees) This is assuming of course he doesn't get injured or has a bad year or 2.

Every NFL player deserves to wring every single dollar they can from the establishment.  2015 total salary cap was well under half total revenue.  That's a whole bunch of dudes making a whole bunch of dollars that aren't on the field.  I don't blame any player one bit for getting all he can, they're the ones with their body on the line.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
