Will Cam jump ship when contract is up?

Moving into the 2018 season and just two years away from 2020. Cam has taken an ass beating both on and off the field. He has been dealt a lousy hand with the offensive receiving corp and a subpar O.C. Do you feel that he will stay or decide to move on regardless of $$$ offered or how this team may perform until then with new ownership. Opinions please....

Depends on how the team plays in the next two years, if we are contenders each year I think he sticks around.  He really does value winning over how much he gets 'beat up'.  All he wants to do is win.  If we are competitive each year I feel like he'd re-sign, but he will want to get paid big bucks as expected for being a majority of our offense the last 9 years.

Cam will be 31 when he becomes an UFA. He could be franchised for a year, if he has anything left, for a reasonable amount of money, then the team lets him walk at 32. Based on his style of play, it would probably be the best time for the team to part ways. He hasn't shown to be the type of quarterback who will be a league leader worthy of a huge contract if can't play with physicality.

When he's 32 years old, I doubt he'll have that. We should enjoy him until then.

Cam should retire when his contract is up. As much as we all love him, he doesnt seem to have the skills to last and be successful as age takes away slowly the gifts and abilities that make so many around here hang on his nuts. He cant take those hits much longer. He cant keep running like he has into his mid 30's. Regardless of how he plays and our record until his contract is up doesnt matter. He has not shown an ability to grow as a passer and have the same longevity as well...so many of the other "older" Qb's.

I think Cam's fate will depend on who the GM is at the time the new contract negotiations begin.   If it's Hurney Cam will get the highest contract for any player ever at that time.   A new GM? Anything from an extension to a trade is on the table.

This is his first year with a QB coach not named Mike Shula. Norv was hired to develop Cam into a more polished passer and develop a more efficient offense. Shula's offensive design did not protect Cam in any way. Lets see how his development plays out the next two years with some different style of teaching before slamming the door.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
