Do you even discuss holdout with your client? His market value has the potential at this moment to significantly drop, no legitimate WRs, O-line is in shambles.... if this is how it would be going into the season and we add just a few rookies and 2nd tier FAs I don't know if I would want my client to have his contract year played under those terms.

Cam already spoke out earlier this offseason about holding out not even being an option. This release of Smitty will not change that. I'm sure he knows he has to step up his leadership to replace the old guard, and I'm sure he's more than willing and capable of doing that.

If I'm Cam, I'm even more loyal to this franchise (as long as they end up getting me some help).

 

The GM just cut the most popular Panther ever essentially...for you. To hand Cam the keys to the offense/leadership. Dick move to even consider holding out, again, contingent on getting some players around him.

Um no.

If Cam takes a bunch of scrubs at WR and RB with a shaky Oline to the playoffs, his value will be crazy high.

If he doesn't it will still be high because of the reasons above and what he did this past season and rookie year.

So yeah, if I'm Cam's agent, I'd still be feeling good as long as there is no injury.

      Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.

      When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
