This team has gotten rid of the 4 closest people to Cam on the team. Joe Webb, Leonard Johnson, Philly Brown, and now Kelvin Benjamin. It also doesn't help with how close he is with Ryan Kalil and him not being out there.

I know many of you are going to say it shouldn't matter, and this franchise should not be building the team to appease Cam. You are half right. Cam is a different type of guy. He beats to his own drumb and only lets a certain few into his close circle. You can see him clearly struggling with the media and the way he has handled himself this year.

Usually people blame it on losing, but the team is 5-3. I believe not having Webb there, not having Philly there, not being able to go home and hang out with Leonard is really taking a toll on him. I am nervous it's only going to get worse with the Benjamin trade.

This franchise has never prioritized helping Cam out. The year he was drafted, they drafted one offensive player, Lee Zeimba. They always just hoped his raw talent would take over. Just this past Sunday Cam went on and on about how great Benjamin is how much he loves having him on his team. Then just 3 days later they send Benjamin packing for draft picks.

You can all scream and yell and tell me how this makes the offense better. I do not necessarily believe it, but at the same time I cannot tell you that you're wrong. I am more concerned that we are going to see a huge dip in Cams production and demeanor from here on out.

Cam isn’t in the long term plans for the team anymore. He will be gone after his contact is up, if not sooner.

I don't agree with this or believe this, but if this is true then the Carolina Panthers are single most dysfunctional franchise in the NFL.

Browns

But I agree. If Cam doesn’t finish his career here, something is seriously wrong.

Yep that’s the real back breaker in this trade.

Pissing Cam off or taking away his best friend on the team isn’t worth any amount of draft picks.

A checked out Cam will cripple this team 

He’s gonna need to nut up. Not saying that’s right or fair just the reality of the situation.

I hear you but do you think that’s going to happen?

These guys are humans too and Cam continues to watch as this organization does everything in its power to handcuff him.

Wrong or right I just don’t see how he hasn’t said “f*ck this” yet

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
