Will Cam want to renegotiate his contract after another MVP season?

[PoundCat]

I really do wonder about this, especially given Luck's new contract. If he has another MVP or near-MVP season or 2, is there any chance that he plays out the full 5 years of his contract as currently written? What say you, Huddle?

I imagine the team will give him a new, more lucrative deal in 3 years or so if he/we continue to have success.

[Mr. Scot]

Cam? Don't know.

His agent? Probably.

[h0llywood]

He gets us a superbowl and JR bequeths Cam the franchise.

I think Cam understands that not wringing every dollar from the Panthers greatly benefits him in the long run. The man deserves to be paid of course, but I don't see him going full Brees.

If it's this season, no. If it's several years from now....maybe. I'm not concerned less than one year in.

[MurkN]

Imagine how much he would be getting paid if Marty Hurney was still around.

I doubt it. I have a feeling he understands that having a team around him is more important than a couple of extra million. Cam is already the highest paid endorser in the NFL.Having the best team will keep him at the top which will send more money his way. 

[B.BERSIN]

Yes he will.

So?

Thats some super optimistic stuff right here. Kinda how Josh Norman would take a few million dollar paycut to stay here right. I don't think we have too many players who would give back to the team. Look at the top super stars and tell me who takes a paycut to improve the team. Tom Brady is the only one I can think of who does take a paycut to improve the team. I'd say 95% of players in the league strictly look after themselves and the other 5% actually would take a paycut to help out the rest of the team. It would be awesome if Cam fell in that 5%.

I believe I read it somewhere a couple months back that the panthers have already agreed to revisit his contract after this season.

The point of my post was that he wasn't in fact taking a paycut. By having an elite team around him, that helps him stay at the top where the endorsement money is. So he's not really taking a paycut. Otherwise, he takes a bigger contract and makes more money, but has a worse team, and the endorsement money isn't there as much because of that. It's a tradeoff and one that seems to be a smarter decision than the other. I'm sure that has to be in his mind or the mind of his agent.

I can guarantee you he doesn't. 

[Thorrez]

They will get a new contract done three years into this deal, as it both makes sense for the Panthers (they can tuck on 2-3 years) and Cam (he gets an increase and more importantly a new chunk of guaranteed money). 

Just like every other team with a top 15 qb.

Thing is also, it does not necessarily benefits Cam long term to renegotiate already next of season with both the cap and qb market rising every year.
