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

    • Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.
    • Bryce youngs first starts for 3 years   51 of 103 49%     153 yards avg 6 ints 2 tds   But this is the year he turns it around
    • His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
