Cam Wants #2 Jersey From Clausen

Just searched on ESPN for a debate they had on that new show "Audible" with Steve Young, Keyshawn, Dilfer, and Herm that I saw last night about whether Jimmy should give up the #2. Steve Young said something along the lines of, if he gives it up to him, he should just quit IIRC. I can't find the video, but I found this article/blog on it...

If Jimmy is gone anyway, I guess it doesn't matter.

hey! original idea for a thread!

I know it was already discussed, but I hadn't seen any actual article on it suggesting it was a real possibility, so don't be a dick.

I just figured Cam would take #1 or become #12. And then they dicussed it on that show last night and the QBs seemed to take the most offense to it.

It all hinges on Jason Baker.

Clausen wanted his #7 last year and he wouldn't give it up.

Newton needs to pay Baker so Jimmy can have #7 and Cam can have #2

This is the only way it will play out.

LOL remember when Reggie Bush wanted to keep his College number and people were saying they should let him cause he was going to be a super star. LOL

I don't understand why we don't just say "Jimmy, you're not our franchise QB. Give Cam his # now!".

Honestly it doesn't really matter to me I am buying his jersey regardless of what the number he chooses though so it's not a big deal to me lol.

I told myself I wouldn't buy another jersey after I bought an authentic Peppers jersey and 2 years later he left. I might change my mind and get a Cam jersey but I'm going to wait until next year when Nike starts making the jersey's to get one.

    • Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
    • Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
