Rapoport's Guess: Panthers will look to trade Cam once healthy

Not surprised if it does happen , this team is in blow it up mode.  They are going to start over fresh.  I’m also sure Cam doesn’t want to be part of a complete overhaul. Would you ? 

I've been preparing myself because of what Jeremy and Zack have said here, but it just doesnt sit well with me.  I understanding rebooting, but Cam has never been part of the problem here.  He's a former league MVP, and beat himself to a pulp carrying the team...  if he's truly 100% healthy, then imo, you give him every opportunity to remain a Panther.  We won't even get good value for him at this point bc of the injuries he's had over the last two years...  to me it's just disloyal and bad business.

Said his "guess, understanding" is, the FO will look to trade Cam once he's healthy.  If this is true, F this front office.

 

Once healthy?  That can't be determined until OTA's at the earliest, right?  So that would mean his contract would be fully guaranteed at that time.   So you yes that would be the only way you would part with him before his contract ran out.  That would be the teams position.  What's is Cams position?

I agree with you, but I have a feeling they aren’t going to keep him around.  I also don’t think he really wants to be part of this tear down that is going on.  It’s highly likely this team will win 5 games or less next season.

Well if that's the direction we're going in then realistically he shouldn't be the only one on the trade block.

Our primary focus will shift to acquiring a worthy franchise quarterback to lead this team, and as we have seen Kyle Allen/Will Grier are simply not up to the task. The potential moves required to make this happen could upset some. But remember, "it's a business".

that deleted thread that leaked the news before he announced sure seemed to suggest that rhule’s old college buddies knew

That was posted about 2 or 3 hours before Luke officially announced it.  It wasn't posted 2 months ago.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
