Worrying about Cam leaving in 4 years


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

I meant to post this a couple of weeks ago when it was discussed on either ESPN or WFNZ.

I think it works like this:

Under the current CBA we can franchise Cam for 2 years after his contract is up (so worst case we have him through 2016 if he continues his stellar career.) This was a point of negotiation in the CBA where the players wanted it to go to max 1 year of franchise but it stayed at 2.

Good for us.

QBs don't like the prospect of serving under 1 year contracts (security, chance of injury etc...) so Cam will want to renegotiate a long term deal as soon as possible. Somebody mentioned under the new CBA there is a limit on when a new contract can happen after the rookie contract.

Does anyone know what the rule is? When could we actually re-sign him.

Yeah I know its early to talk about this but other people are.

Cam is going to get paid and locked up by us sooner rather than later no worries...He seems like he wants to lift up Carolina from small market to something. He wants to win now, crowd support, wants BOA to be feared due to loud fan noise etc. Like I said before we drafted him he's our "LeBron James" (what he did for Cleveland) but I feel like he wont leave what he helps build just my opinion.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
