Panthers should watch and learn from the Drew Brees situation

We might be starring down the same barrel as the Taints if Cam continues to develop. Minus an ugly ass mole, Cam could be in line for "highest paid QB eva" status like that douche bag in New Orleans. If you are Marty and JR, how soon do you start preparing for Cam's second contract?

As soon as you can... Which is 2 seasons from now.

What should we learn? How to not pay your franchise player and potentially piss him off as well as alienate your entire fanbase?? I can't believe they haven't signed Brees yet. He is the one player who has done more than anything to turn that franchise around. If he leaves they are in the basement in 1 year.

Newton will get paid if he continues to play well and improve. We have a long history outside of 2010 in paying our guys and retaining them. Newton will be extended as long as he continues to play well. No fear of that.

Cam Newton, the first pick in this year's draft, would be eligible for a four-year, $22.03 million contract. If the Panthers keep him for a fifth year, his salary would be at the average of the top 10 salaries of other quarterbacks. One unique part about the new system is it should prevent long holdouts. At some point in August, unsigned draft choices lose their leverage if they aren't signed. There is another clause that prevents draft picks from holding out after they sign. If he holds out during the deal, he is prohibited from renegotiating his contract.

So when can we renegotiate his contract? My understanding is that it's after fours years????

Is last offseason not any proof at all that we have no problem dishing out the big bucks for our own?

I'm not questioning us spending, just how long will it take to work out a deal that suits Cam but doesn't hog tie the franchise.

    • Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.     
    • This post was an error. Oops and sorry for the errors in the previous one. Too slow to edit.   We’ll see what they do.  
    • I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
