Somehow Cam is still a Top 100 player. Gets ranked 44th in NFL Top 100.

Had an underrated season. NFL Players understand the situation Cam was in with his o-line and wide receivers, and know he's still a threat.

Not surprised of his drop, but understand why he's even still on the list. People are giving him a second chance, because they know that Cam is better than what 2016 suggested.

In all seriousness. Other players see Cam Newton out there sacrificing his body to make plays for the team. Even if you might not like his personality, you have to respect his dedication, and his warrior mentality on the field. This speaks volumes, and is a direct shot across the bow to the dipshit naysayers.

Yeah, great QB, bad year with a lot of injuries and slow ass WRs with the exception of Ted Butterfingers Ginn Jr . Most of the players in the league aren't idiots and know there's various reasons why the team wasn't as successful this season as opposed to 2015. 

This year Cam has the weapons, the speed, and the team has the vets on defense sorely lacking last year. It's going to mostly come down to people staying healthy and whether Kalil and whoever ends up being our starting RT is good or not.

      Passing yards per game leaders

      I mean it's not even like this was his worst game of the season... I'm not done with him by any means but this feels more the norm for him than the exception:/

      BREAKING: Panthers Announce Four Moves Including LB Trevin Wallace To IR

      By mav1234 · Posted

      I'd give it a C mainly because of Brooks.  If we just didn't have a 2nd I'd argue B to B+ tbh. Brooks was a bad gamble, tho one that could still pay off long term. Yes XL only has 400 yards but... Look who is throwing him the ball. And I think he isn't a "true #1" but he's been able to consistently get open. Hands definitely need to be cleaned up.  But he should end the year with 500-600 yards. Like you said - Sanders looks great.  Get him a better QB / more time with a QB and I think he's gonna impress. We added a couple rotational players on D that have both made plays and show promise for the future from later rounds. So I'd say, Brooks really hurts this drafts grade. It'll be interesting to see how it progresses over the next 3 years. I've overall really liked Morgan's FA acquisitions, so...

      Would you trade Ickey

      Oh he would absolutely flourish. It’s the panthers way. It’s no different with coaches. Sometimes they reach their expiration date, go somewhere else, and find new success.  Similarly to Burns, how long to wait for the light to finally turn on?  Market forces will demand a salary that the panthers can not responsibly match. Sliding him to guard will fit his skill set better, but he has played LT for 3 years. He will receive offers from other teams wanting to pay him LT money.  At guard, he won’t start with what they have paid Hunt and Lewis. Center then?? Dunno. Maybe? He will become a backup by default once they draft their stud LT. I doubt Dan just stands pat. That’s not his MO.  So where does this put him? Can you match what other teams will offer for a backup LT/guard? Do you dish out franchise LT $ on a guy who still needs significant improvement in pass protection. This team will be DOA in the playoffs with the very first team who has a formidable speed rusher. What if he has hit his ceiling in pass protection already and they sign him long term? It’s a big gamble either way.
