2011 Draft Class - Will everyone wait on Cam's contract?

Recommended Posts

Since teams can start negotiating....is the rest of the NFL waiting on Cam to ink a deal to set the price as the first pick of the 2011 draft and set the QB pay scale? (other than Kap, is any other QB getting a new contract? Dalton?)

 

I haven't heard any news on non-QB contracts whose contracts aren't as dependent on Cams. (not going to list everyone, just these guys should be expecting big $$)

DEs: JJ Watt, Von Miller, Aldon Smith, Quinn.

WR: AJ Green, Julio Jones

DBs: Peterson

OT: Solder, Carpenter

I don't know but I will say it again. If the Panthers, 49ers, Seahawks, Bengals, Dolphins, Redskins, Eagles wait until the Colts and Luck finish theirs...

 

The market value of NFL QBs will be 22 million without question.

 

Luck is going to ask the Colts for a contract north of 25 million/year and god help us all if the Colts give it to him.

If he wins a SB, of course.

Considering all these guys contract expires a year before Luck's, won't have any effect on all the guys drafted a year before him.

But there are only 4-5 weeks left to decide if the team is going to exercise the 5th year option.

Sent from my LG-LS720 using CarolinaHuddle mobile app

Of course they will exercise the option which must be decided by May 3rd. Right now the tag for quarterbacks is 14 million and even if it increases by 4 or 5 million it won't be more than we will paying him.

The only downside is that if we exercise the option, it will guarantee the money for injury and if he is on the roaster at the beginning of the 5th year, the money will be fully guaranteed.  With his injury history even with the surgery it sounds like a good bet with little downside..

The Panthers, 49ers, and Bengals could all wait until next off season to extend. The Colts are able to begin negotiations with Luck next off season. Which means Luck could get an extension prior to Newton, Kaepernick, and Dalton.

 

And the rest were drafted the same year as Luck.

I remember hearing about how weak that draft class was at the time. Well... 12 of the first 16 picks have made at least one Pro Bowl; one of those that hasn't yet is Nick Fairley, who is no scrub. The other three? Jake Locker, Blaine Gabbert, and Christian Ponder.

 

Notable later picks include Andy Dalton, Colin Kaepernick, Kyle Rudolph, and Richard Sherman.

    • I would take the giants roster over Panthers. Lawrence, 3 OLB/DEs, Thomas, and nabers. Lawrence is better than dbrown and Thomas is better than icky. Panthers don't have one edge that would start over those 3 not matter how people feel about burns. Id believe....I think I would take nabers over the whole WR group....Id need to think about, but I feel it is right or 50/50..... Now after the top 10, Panthers may have claim. Im just not that big of a NFL fan like past time to make a good case. I'd just take giants on their top talent.    I will say this, if BY carries this team to the playoffs, he alone would flip this. 
    • Looks like he ran out of real estate.  He had 5 total TDs. As good as we have ever seen in Carolina? Looks like he is the only QB in our history with 3 passing and 2 rushing TDs and he tied a single game record of 5 TDs in one game with Cam and Beurlein.  Throw in his 73.4% completions and zero turnovers, literally the ONLY thing you could argue against statistically is total yardage which was only 275.  You may not agree with that statement (not 100% sure I do), but it's really not THAT wild...
    • I have for too long lacked giving good posting beers, fire, etc.  Good post, its beyond prove it time and until then 30s is where they belong.
