Whats the deal with Cam charging for Autographs today?

This truly is a non story and is just the media looking for something to talk about. Just a testament to how polarizing Cam is as a player & individual.

If this was about Matt Ryan or Carson Palmer, it would have as much interest to us as the ladies have interest in X-Clowns bedroom: zero

just like cam newton was the first college athlete to be embroiled in a pay-for-play scandal, he's also the first pro in recorded history to sign up with a memorabilia company that charges for autographs. what a douchebag we have on our hands here.

Let's take that $175 for a signed jersey. If you just randomly got a jersey signed by somebody and then wanted to get some form of official certification for that signature, then you're looking at about $100 for the jersey (according to the nfl.com shop for a well known player) and then another $25-50 for certification. So for an extra $50 or so, you get the garauntee of the autograph and instant certification of it's authenticity, plus a meet and greet and possible photo-op with the player.

Seems like a pretty good deal to me.

Yeah and you know it's real. It's something you can pass along to your kids and know with out a doubt it's authentic.

There's so much fake crap floating around its almost worth it if you want to know for sure. I saw some thing on 60 mins or Real SPorts or something about how all these people had bought all this autographed stuff and it was all fake. One of the guys on the show was devastated when he found out the Mickey mantle and Yankees stuff he wanted to pass on to his children was forged.

I wouldn't drop $200 on a sig but not gonna tell some other man how to spend his money

Which PFT commenter did you lift that knee slapper from? Or did you go high brow and steal it from an observer post? Maybe try bleacher report or ESPN next time.

Back on topic: apparently Eli manning is doing a private autograph signing next week, and is charging $600 for a pair of autographed cleats (among other things) with no mention of proceeds going to charity. This is a guy who signed a 100 million dollar contract, making much more than cam. Why aren't there articles ripping him for his greed?

    • If Reich or Fitterer were still around I think the need to extend Young because of what he cost would be stronger.  And yeah Morgan was Fit's right hand when the call was made but there an equal chance that Dan will see it as a chance to move on from Fit and shake off that stink. Holding out some hope that 3 years and clear eyes will allow for an honest appraisal that Young just aint the guy
    • As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
