Panthers will get nothing for Newton after signing T.B.

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.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
