Yeah, there may be a few teams that would meet that criteria, but the number of teams interested would likely increase dramatically if his health wasn't in doubt.

A solid performance by Cam in 2020 would likely increase the number and quality of contracts available for his signature. 

A disastrous performance in 2020 would leave him with no suitors at all.

Right now the Insiders say Newton won't play without an extension and the Panthers (Tepper specifically) won't give him one.

For Newton to be a Panther next year, one of those sides has to change their mind. 

But if the Panthers don't, and someone else will...

So I agree we cannot give him an extension without a prove it year.   Surely, no team is going to trade for him and sign him to an extension without seeing him play.

Wouldn't be so sure of that.

Trading for his current contract is actually pretty easy. But again, he wants an extension.

If he hits the open market, would somebody give him a two or maybe even three year deal based on the idea that he's "finally healthy"? Given that he will have sat out most of this season, I think it's possible.

General consensus among analysts right now is that he will play next year. Just not for us.

How long will he play? That's kind of an important question.

His premise that Cam has 5 years left is being incredibly optimistic. 

His premise that Allen is not the long term answer is making a decision on far too small a sample size. 

If kyle allen had that much promise he would have been DRAFTED to begin with. Thats just reality.

Speculating that the shoulder is done is just as worst as any Whitlock take.

Scar tissue from the first surgery was a big component in the wear down of the shoulder in 2018 from what I remember was said. 

now you have cam with a new throwing motion to take stress off the shoulder, plus a full year for not only the shoulder to rest but his foot as well. Regardless of how you feel that’s trending in the right direction of getting healthy. 
 

nick wright ain’t wrong, in my cris Carter voice, panthers run the risk of wasting 2-3 seasons if Newton, Allen, or Grier isn’t the long term answer. Allen is good enough to keep us from drafting top 10, so getting a qb is going to require some luck and a trade up, which I’m not a fan of giving the amount of success top 10 qbs have had. 

besides this team is far more equipped for a overhaul in 2021 than 2020 just by looking at fa and contracts we can get from under

The Cam Newton of a few years ago would have been.

The Cam Newton of right now may or may not be.

And that's what people have to realize. Those are two different guys.

That is yet to be determined. Teddy is a great example and Cam Newton is not Teddy. He will play at a very high level once again and come back in another uniform to stomp your JV team.

Quick, somebody tell Kurt Warner, Jeff Garcia, Warren Moon, Jake Delhomme and Tony Romo they can't be long term answers.

 

Quick....tell me how many championships, mvps those guys have between them?

Better yet....tell me how does Kyle Allen with his 10 TDs and 10 turnovers and other traits fuging compare to any of these guys?

I will do you one even better than that. WHY the fug are you looking for the next Jake Delhomme in the first place???

      Another layer to that is Ive seen Seattle has been in the market for CB help this off-season.   Michael had a higher PFF grade than Horn who got 15 games this season. He wants to be here too, that's a huge bonus for any 5 win team that had awful pass rush.  The 7th rounder Michael Barrett didn't last long on Seattle, he was cut before the season I think and ended up on browns PS. He's already been on 5.......5 teams within one year.......

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      By Basbear · Posted

      You have gave the board some recent gold via posting. Heres my poor attempt at the truthful play-by-play of the time during post- I pulled out the old laptop to do my shitposting and check on websites. Open the huddle and see this new thread. Open thread and read CRAs post, {inner thinking, oooOOooo this is my lane and I got this}. Make sure not to scroll even to the 2nd post. 23% of current neurons still firing start up and two names appear- Captain and Josh....... about another 43 seconds past "O GOD" it's July 4th weekend and I got medicine to pick up. (If the laptop didn't give away my aging, the meds should...) I need to split, think long panther careers and the hint-  Ryan Kalil was a late 2nd and Pro bowls(even all-pros too) he's got to be OLman and Mikie Minter is among the all-time Panthers career leaders. Drop my post. Scramble to get keys, wallet, and phone. Check my phone- its 17% battery.....fug I now have to raw dog the pickup line and put the phone on charge.... Flip flops, sweat ringed filled hat, and shades acquired. Get in my pos rav4 and think about not running the A/C. Pull out the drive way and reach the 1st stop light, A/C is wide open. I check my shirt to see if there's any new stains on my house shirt, bush off the Bojangles salt that I see.... Neurons re-fire and focus on the comments CRA made that no one would get this....... Dang IT, that means it isn't Ryan Kalil or Mike Minter! CVS is close, but I know its impossible I get back withing 10 minutes to change my post and my phone is on the charger. {Think you monkey, at one point you were a draft nerd}. Reach the CVS line, by some grace its not 5 cars deep during 5 o'clock traffic hell. Im second in line after the car in front of me both turn in, they have to go back and forth to line up while Im a pro for that geometry. Neurons finally reach peak performance as Ive re-thought draft classes. Think obscure and unknown 7th rounders with long careers. Some Sunday/Monday night member berry fell out of my Melon, Will montgomery during the players intros for washington. I thought he out of the league and was shocked to see him still playing around the 2015 years. I do a goggle background check and that refreshed memory. Pick up the meds and enjoy the sweet smelling cool CVS air. Driving back and check in on one of the local bums at the big stop light, wow he's got a new fancy rug. Think about all the old food I got and need to start giving it away and rethink it. Reach home and post a follow up and I know Minter is wrong too, I check the draft history and see Robert Mcclain. Too late, but that would have been my guess....open CRAs link and get "upset" at the DBs name.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      THANKS my guy! Keeping up with this threads theme, if I view a thread and there's only 20 posts and some time passes. If I see there's one new post and read the name; @Dave Gettleman's Shortsis among the chosen few that I will reopen that thread just to see what you posted.    Thanks again, plus not just a scout, thats scotty mccloughans son?!?!? If not for the deep claws of booze, scotty is among the best talent finders this league has recently had. Last I heard he ran a consulting business. Caden could be one of those who's on a early path to being a GM in the future. I was a big fan of his dad, dam shame about booze demon ruining his career.
