What would it take for you to trade Cam?

Very unlikely but every single player in the history of the league has a price. Even the Pats would've traded Brady in his prime if they got an offer they couldn't refuse. So, I'm curious what it would take for you to trade Cam, minimum?

Would you pass up a 2019 top 5 first rounder, second rounder and 2020 first and second along with a young above average starter on their rookie deal? Say, Jax 1st and 2nd each of the next two years and Ramsey or Ngakoue? I may think about that one, and frankly would not be shocked if they offered something along those lines...

Eh that deal is more tempting than I was expecting going into the thread... but I'd say no.  Maybe if Cam played next year and the offseason didn't help and he still looked shot.  But franchise QBs are HARD to find, especially as good as we know Cam is capable of (ie. this year before his arm fell off).  I don't want to risk having to waste more years looking for a QB.

Plus, the QB class for 2019 sucks.  Maybe if it was 2020 and we had a shot at someone like Tua or Fromm.

It would take at least three first rounders, and I might still keep Cam if just for his entertainment value. It's not easy finding a franchise quarterback, unless you're extremely lucky, it's going to take several years and plenty of first round selections. Everyone looks at the young guns and thinks it's probable to find one, but it's not. Give it a couple years, and I bet several of these phenoms will be out of the league. Even a first overall pick in a stacked quarterback class is still long-shot.

At this point I don't see a team trading anything more than a late 1st... MAYBE.  The secret's out in the league how his shoulder has been injured for two years, and is just putrid now.  Damaged goods = limited trade value.  

Team wouldn't get an offer worth pulling the trigger for; play him until his contract is due for extension at which point either he'll be so far gone there's no chance of re-signing him, or he'll show enough to fetch more and you wouldn't have wanted to trade him for a late 1st anyways.

Browns wouldn't do it I'm sure but would anyone trade Cam for Mayfield straight up? If salaries were equal even with their ages I'd say hell no but Mayfield on very cheap deal for 4 years would be hard to pass up.

I'd take that deal in a heartbeat and the Browns would be even dumber of a franchise than they have proven to be

Although tbh I'd still be sad.  I can't tell if I'm in the minority of the Panthers fanbase or not in feeling this way but I love Cam, dude's been my favorite Panther since he came to the team.    

Man I'm really not looking forward to the day when someone else is the Panthers starting QB, whenever that day happens.

      Why do people think Bryce Young won this game yesterday?

      By Mage · Posted

      Who is "they"?  Who in the media still argues that Bryce Young could reach the levels that people thought he would before the draft? I mean, nobody is going to come outright and bash the kid.  By all accounts he's a good dude and I think that is why you don't see the media come after him like they did Zach Wilson.

      It started during the Denver game after that first drive. i don’t think the panthers got a first down again until the fourth quarter.

      QB 2026 (For the Young Haters)

      By Mage · Posted

      The Panthers will finish with at least 7-8 wins.  So that leaves them with only two "smart" choices in my opinion: 1. Sign a reasonably priced free agent QB and see if they are better than Bryce Young in training camp - The issue is there will be very little options.  There is almost no way the Colts let Daniel Jones walk.  Rodgers, Flacco, and Wilson will likely retire (and is Wilson better than Bryce anyway?).  Winston is under contract with the Giants for another year.  That leaves Mariota, which I'm all for, but the Commanders will make a big push to keep him given Daniels' injury history.  Outside of him, there is literally nobody else. 2. Stick with Bryce Young for one more year - Nobody wants this to happen, but the Panthers won't be in a position to draft one in the first round and it isn't a strong class to begin with.  Mendoza, Simpson (and do we really want an Alabama QB?), and Moore will likely all be off the board by the time we pick.  Bryce isn't good, but we are still 5-4.  I'd rather continue to build the rest of the team than reach for a QB.  Then we could set ourselves up nicely in 2027 to make a splash play if we choose.  This is how we should have approached years past; stuck with Kyle Allen or Sam Darnold or Teddy Bridgewater and kept building the team until we were ready to make a splash.  But every year we panicked and did something stupid. There is the idea you could throw a dart at a guy in the later arounds, but IMO this just isn't a good QB class and odds are it will be a wasted pick.  I still think we need a lot of depth on the defense.  I'd rather focus there.
