Another stupid move. Sign Bridgewater knowing that no team will give up anything of value for Newton now. They will just wait until they  release him ( which they will), and get nothing in return. 

Don't understand WTF this organization is thinking.  Bad moves on a consistent basis time and time again. Just a sh$t show.

No team is stupid enough to give even a 7th round pick for Cam now. We will end up cutting him. New owner, same results. Maybe worse. And now we’re paying more for Teddy than Cam’s 19 million.

We’ll also get nothing for Bradberry, Addison and Butler who are cancelled out for comp picks  (would have been a 3rd, 4th and 5th) by Teddy, Weatherly and Burris. Woo hoo! No need for more draft capital during a rebuild. That would make it too easy. It’s more fun knowing you to hit every pick.

This is a fact. This franchise is so god damn stupid it is infuriating. To treat the greatest QB in franchise history like this is a joke. David Tepper has proven himself to be a complete piece of poo and this is coming from the most anti Jerry Richardson person.

Not necessarily.  Some team may want him and be willing to offer up trade bait to get him over someone else.  

Also - the Panthers could very well play hard ball and keep him on the roster for the whole year.  

One way or another, I'd either sit Cam on the bench for a year THEN release him, or get something for him now.

I agree with everyone that it sucks that we will likely get nothing for cam, but just out of curiosity when do you all think we should’ve traded him to get some value?  His health has been in question for three years. With all these other quarterbacks available why would anyone take a chance?

Still early.  We have some other free agents that will go.  

McCoy went to Dallas.  Irvin and GVR will get picked up.  
 

I am guessing no 3rd’s after Teddy signing.  But 4-6 is a possibility.

      2026 NFL Combine Thread: 2.26.26 - 3.1.26

      Ok--I have seen some sample items, and I would like to see something (if possible) measures on field intelligence--maybe how quickly you can grasp a playbook or absorb film session adjustments...Back when we had Morrison as team president and Hurney as GM, I offered to assess (as part of my research in education requirement at a University) emotional intelligence and learning styles of players to help coaches teach more effectively.  Morrison loved it and contacted me about it.  Hurney was not interested, and it fell through the cracks.  My pitch?  If only 50% of first-rounders become successful NFL players and that number drops significantly, can you tell me that you are effectively measuring talent?  Morrison thought it was a good point and wanted to do something that might improve long-term success rates--that would impact the cap management, etc.  Marty, according to Morrison, said he was not interested at this time and if so, he would want a football guy to do it.  (I told Morrison that I played in college and Hurney, a sports reporter at one time, did not. (He told me that Hurney played as a Guard in college--who knew?) Any way, about that time, Morrison left (2017) and the idea was dropped.  I reached back out a year later or so to Marty was still not interested.  A few days later, his wife accused him of assault or something, so I dropped it.

      Pretty sure they still do the Wonderlic they just don't publicly release the scores.

      I just thought he was under the radar--but thanks for opening our eyes to him.  I think we should have better measures for intelligence--such as reaction time, angles, etc. Legette is raw as heck, for example, and his RAS was very high.  We used to do the Wonderlic (which was not great) but to know how effectively a player makes on field decisions would be great.
