If we trade Cam, does that mean we are going after "our guy" in the draft?

Just genuinely curious, because that seems like the only plausible option. If we do trade Cam, and then decide to pull in a guy in FA this fan base may lose their poo. I know I will.

And to add to that we must be thinking of Cam as another means of getting our guy via trading for draft picks. In which case may not be a bad idea if we are talking long term.  And this is assuming logic LOL. If we trade Cam we better get enough out of him to complete the objective.

Also, could we potentially Keep Cam and still be able to negotiate to draft our QB? I don't think so, if we are gunning for burrow.  If we go after a guy Like Tua, or someone that could slip to us then I think we should keep Cam. Let that competition play out, Cam starts rookie learns until Cam proves one way or the other he's the guy.  Potential new Face of the Franchise on a rookie deal, plus our Former MVP andFan favorite Cam Newton playing on a very reasonable contract. Alot if teams have done it this way with a lot success.

Chiefs-Patrick Mahomes after Alex Smith

Packers- Aaron Rodgers and Brett Favre

New England-Brady and Multiple capable starters but always stick with Brady(except for this year FINALLY)

Titans- Mariotta and Tannehil.

Baltimore- Joe Flacco and Lamar Jackson( and Joe's contract was not reasonable)

Look, to be quite honest I am all for Going after Burrow if that can happen. Why wouldn't you, he would come in off a championship game with LSU, into a starting roll built and tailored around him with a familiar face at OC.  Maybe we could trade Cam and our First Rounder for it who knows. But is that what will happen? I don't think so, Cincy needs more help at QB than us. And I believe that Hometown tie maybe what makes that happen.

And if we can't get Burrow, I don't think Trading Cam and going after the next guy available at QB is a good idea. I see Tua being the only other guy with Hope, but that is all riding on his recovery from hip injury. 

I apologize for being so wordy. I like to type my thoughts. And this helps me cope with recent panthers events. So, for that I'm not sorry.

 

What say you Huddle?

Who would it be? Tua will be gone to Miami and Herbert could go to LA, only way we get them is to move up by dealing picks. To me, you want to have more picks when rebuilding not less.

I honestly don't think they move up for a QB.  If one is there I'm sure there will be some discussion going on in the war room.  If it's not Cam next year it will be Grier or Allen at the helm and they will look for a QB in the draft next year.

I also would not be shocked if they picked up another late round QB either.

Lineman or QB, I get the sense it will be a QB just because of the new regime ect.

As much as I want to see Cam stay and watch him in the Joe Brady offense I think were really need to consider acquiring as many assets and draft capital as we can for either this upcoming 2020 draft with so many glaring holes and needs and then tank for Trevor Lawrence during 2020 season or for 2021 draft so if we need to trade up to get Trevor Lawrence we can!

Who the hell is going to trade out for a quarterback pick?

unless someone thinks Miami is going to take Cam and we take Tua?

then Miami laughs all the way when Cam has 50 touchdowns next year and Tua is in Traction.

Or it could be like this season where Lamar Jackson is probably winning MVP for the Ravens and we all watched Joe Flacco get benched for a rookie QB in Denver.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
