Does Cam have an asking price?

Maybe $11-12mil at this point. There are 10 other teams who would be willing to pay him $15m/yr.  We can't lowball him.  If he'd be happy to take 9 then I'm all for it, but being reasonable, he deserves more than that.

If you think he will take 11-12M, you are an idiot.

 

That is the price for a bottom tier starter in this league.  He will demand in the 17-20M range.

Did you not see what I was replying to??? I never said I thought he would take that amount, I said it would be around $15mil. I was saying that maybe 11-12m is his worth based on his play, but I agree with everyone else that as a franchise QB he's worth at least $15mil. Try reading my entire response next time, idiot.

In all seriousness his option year is worth 17+, so start there for your yearly contract projections. Most likely looking at a range of 17-21 million a year, there's a good chance that he becomes the highest paid QB in the NFL. 

 

 

People on here really need to get used to the idea that cam is going to get a 100 million dollar contract. If Cam ask for a 7 year deal, which I believe he probably would. You're looking at a deal worth close to 140 million dollars with probably 55-60 of it guaranteed. 

 

 

7 years, 137 million, 55 million guaranteed. Roughly 19 million a year.

still don't think 11-12 based on play is right.

 

He led us to 12-4 and a division title.  That is not low tier results.

 

Try writing something coherently next time....fuging idiot.

QB pay going up (absurdly) and the cap staying flat, has, in essence, lowered the cap number for the other 52.

 

Good news, is you have good players like Ginn, Mitchell, and Capt. playing on 1 year deals, but it's awfully tough time keeping good talent to lock up long term.

 

As for Cam's deal, look to Rivers, Cutler, Ryan as a starting point.

Exactly....and they are NOT in the 11-12M per season range.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
