Cam should have deferred to his elders...

What? Smitty was being Smitty. Great player, but he could be a volatile ass with his teammates or even on the field. 

Smith hit Cam. That's Smith's fault. He's lucky it didn't go the same way it did the previous two times he assaulted a teammate.

A million times this 

My eight year old grandson wants what he wants without any thought to cost, effort required or circumstances.

Sadly, we've got adults on here who think the same way about franchise quarterbacks.

Cam was cocky when he was young probably needed it.

Exactly what he needed.

Rivera was afraid of Cam and Smitty was the only guy holding him accountable...

...everyone would have been better off with Smitty & Cam both on the squad.

Damn this hurts so bad to say this but I totally agree. I would have never got rid of Smitty because it hurt Cams feelings. Dumb as hell

EDIT: 

See you say he "slapped" him?

When and where?

In the face after a practice in the panthers locker room from what I remember. It was a pretty big discussion around here, but we didn't hear about it until after he was gone. Wasn't exactly the kind of thing the team wanted getting out. Wasn't as public as the training camp incident (I was there for that) and nobody had to go to the hospital like after the first assault. Easier to keep contained and Cam probably didn't make it any better. 

At that point Cam was the future and Smitty wasn't doing much here. He had more in the tank for sure, but he wasn't letting it out. Dude was getting into more fights than he was getting into the end zone. I hated seeing him go and think it was crappy the way it was handled, but it wasn't surprising after it happened.

Is there a credible source who can corroborate this?  I certainly don't see anything out there about it and were it true the press certainly would be all over it, no way they'd participate in a coverup in order to protect "the team".

That said, if it's true...so what?

Did Cam "slap" him back?  If not, why not?

You know Michael Jordan punched Steve Kerr in the face and Kerr went right back after him until teammates broke it up, Kerr ended up with a black-eye...

...then they booted up and went out and won 3 straight World Championships together.

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
