Heinicke may beat him for the starting job if they go that route, doubt they give him a fair shot. I always liked the guy, confused why they cut when he played well in the pre-season games. Glad he got some good backup money..... SUPER glad the panthers didnt do that either. I know hes not the 'GM", but seems like a classic herniay over-pay, I have huge doubts any other team wanted his services. Many team now only have two QBs on the 53, so that means WFT believes hes better than 63 other QBs.... thats a hard sale even for a fan like myself...

This is the dumbest poo I’ve ever read.

He hasn't been paid 63 million yet, he's only played one year of his 3 year contract. 

Obviously but I’m guessing he would average about 15 tds a year with how he plays. My point is teddy was worth a 2 year 8 million contract not a 3 year 63 million. It was an absurd contract that many posters called out as soon as it was released.

It's going to end up costing the team $38M in cap space over two years for a player who cannot play, and should have never been on the team.

Dumb team.

Hurney putting his stamp on the organization already, by paying a guy who was out of football for a year before coming back to play 1 game (fairly well, but besides the point) a cool 8.75 million (over 2 years) with additional money in incentives.  Yikes.

yeah, that is too much.   

meanwhile in other news, Cam Newton is looking to sign for an outdated bag of Doritos.

The problem Cam has is that he’s not backup material. His personality is just too big and despite popular belief he’s still a pretty good player. What QB will you ever see throw for 3tds and catch another in the same game? Not many. He’s most likely going to look better than your starter in practice and that will divide a locker room. He’s looking at another one year contract for a team who couldn’t get their guy in the draft or he’ll be out of the league.

He's not a good player at this point. He's more or less a RB that plays QB. Unfortunately that shoulder never really recovered.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
