Is it down to New England or backup for Cam Newton?

What a wild offseason it has been. With the results of round one in the NFL draft, is it realistically down to New England as the only landing spot to be a starting QB for Cam Newton? Not in my wildest dreams would I think Cam would have to be a backup in 2020...what are your thoughts?

Jacksonville? Maybe Fournette will keep pounding the table. After that lots of backup slots maybe a Tampa or Indy knowing they’ll need a starter in a year or two? Give him time to get healthy. Winston still out there too.

Honestly depends on how much $$$ he wants. There’s places like Jacksonville and Chicago where if given the chance he could beat out the meh competition.

And the Raiders make sense if they are truly ready to move on from Carr but want to generate some hype for the Vegas move.

Washington is a no go or they would have already made a play. Ron is not going to give up on the guy they just picked first a year ago and the owner disentangle seem to thrilled with that either. Raiders I could see, but they signed Marcus M, and seem content rolling with the two vets in place

Forgot about Washington. Haskins, but he could legitimately flop. Raiders as well although Carr was pretty good last year.

How about Atlanta for a couple years as a backup? Ryan’s contract has a bit of an out after 2021.

I don't think trading a 5th rounder for Kyle Allen would negate them potentially signing Cam, especially if they've made the decision to part ways with Haskins.

I'm assuming the NFL isn't happening this season

Jaguars
Raiders
Colts
Cowboys
Patriots

Since all of these teams have QBs with expiring contracts or an iffy situation right now.

I’m talking starting this upcoming season, which will happen even if it’s at empty stadiums. Jags are rolling with Minshew who is just coming off his rookie season, colts won’t cut Rivers after just signing him, Cowboys no way Dak goes anywhere this offseason

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
