There will be no closure on the Cam situation for months

Just be prepared. With the coronavirus just beginning, Cam won’t be able to take a physical for a team for very possibly several months. Nobody will trade for him without a physical. We may see a trade reported and “terms agreed to” only to have that team back out when the physical can happen down the road. Also, highly doubt he’ll be able to take a physical for a team before the draft which hurts his trade market and our return, as teams who take QBs in the draft won’t be interested.

I'm sure for something of this magnitude he could conduct a physical.

Even if only 'essential personnel' are present

NFL has shutdown all team facilities and football business travel indefinitely. That’s not changing any time soon because of Cam Newton and the Panthers. Maybe if the Cowboys were involved...

Does a physical have to happen at team facilities?

This board is about to be really quiet for the coming months from a large portion of the franchise jumping ship after this news. 

How could anyone blame any fans that bail? The Panthers are about to be completely unrecognizable from the team and organization that fans have rooted for all these years. Except, that is, for the one man that virtually no one wants - Marty Hurney. The anchor around the neck will be the line piece remaining.

Oh wee mayne indeed.

That’s what being a fan is all about. You stick around through the highs and lows. I don’t blame people for jumping ship but don’t come back around if and when we rise above mediocrity.

I'm not bailing on the Panthers, I could never do that, but I will admit I'm not sure how interested I am in the team right now.  I still love them, but seriously is there any reason to think we'll be any better than below average?

When there's massive turnover with a team and organization it's probably safe to assume that same turnover in fanbase, at least for awhile. The Panthers that we all rooted for are soon to no longer exist. There's positives and negatives to that but there's going to be fan turnover. Hell, even our media guys are leaping off this flaming ship.

Teams will have access to all medical records up to this point and be able to have local doctors do any additional testing and have any workouts  electronically.  That being said ,I would expect the draft compensation to be in 2021 and have contingencies for performance and signing a long term contract.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.
