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.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
