Wouldn't bet on it.

From Darin Gantt...

...there probably won't be a huge demand for Newton as a starter, with the way his year in New England went, and his passing here in 2021 (other than the Washington game).

And he's already said he'd be willing to be a backup somewhere, as long as there's winning involved. Can that be here? That's to be determined.

I'm starting to think that late-stage Cam Newton is a luxury item, a player you add on when everything else is functional, and he brings a new element. They may not be there right now.

Ask the Old Guy: What's next?

"..A lot of things have to align for a quarterback to play well.." - Matt Rhule

For Cam in 2020, and 2021 almost nothing was aligning.

Draft oline, ride the season with sam “I see ghost”  darnold and fatt rhule to the top pick next, draft top QB next year.. ie Bengals

The more you look at things then you can see this is pretty much the only option that builds for the future.  These quick fix solutions just keep prolonging the inevitable tear down rebuild

It wouldn’t surprise me if he was high on Malik Willis as well. He has the athleticism, arm strength and positive attitude that a lot of coaches like. His supporting cast were mostly 2 star recruits and he pressed at times to make a play when his teammates weren’t capable. He would have more weapons than he’s used to here. Assuming we fix the o-line. 

I could see that... After all, didn't he grade Patrick Mahomes, Josh Allen, and Lamar Jackson (all athletic but accurate QBs) ahead of Darnold? 

Willis reminds me a little of Jackson

Willis actually reminds me a little of RG3.  I don't think hes quite the explosive athlete that Jackson is, but then again nobody is.

most new HCs.....want to handpick who there career and shot is tied to.  That is a thing.  You draft Pickett or Howell and then hire a QB who wants something entirely different from a QB? 

I mean, it's not a thing when you are hired and you inherit Aaron Rodgers or a lesser but well established QB. 

But yeah, a new hire isn't going to want to "rebuild" with Matt Rhule's new young building blocks. 

 

It’s a thing people say on forums that sounds really smart and clever but it isn’t really a thing

A new coach would also be more than welcome to pick a new QB if the current one doesn’t work

thats the way the game is now

you don’t just abide failure just because, just like you don’t prevent a coach from upgrading just because he makes you Sad Real Big Sad =[

Trade back ( at least once) if one of the QBs is available in rd 2 take a flyer- while drafting/ signing road graders and get a big back to pair with CMC. Even if we stick with Darnold, it’s harder to throw too many INTs if you run it 65% of the time.

I can’t think of a better way to drill straight through rock bottom

We going to allocate 58 million dollars to the qb position next year?

If Darnold goes to them in the deal they still save a fortune that’s the only way I can see us entertaining the idea

I am beginning to think this will be our move.

next year is a loaded QB class.

We should stick with Sam.  He's still a former 3rd overall pick, and he's still younger than Joe Burrow.  Rhule's reasons for trading for him still apply.
