Will Cam jump ship when contract is up?

[Jmac]

Moving into the 2018 season and just two years away from 2020. Cam has taken an ass beating both on and off the field. He has been dealt a lousy hand with the offensive receiving corp and a subpar O.C. Do you feel that he will stay or decide to move on regardless of $$$ offered or how this team may perform until then with new ownership. Opinions please....

[Dunn]

Depends on how the team plays in the next two years, if we are contenders each year I think he sticks around.  He really does value winning over how much he gets 'beat up'.  All he wants to do is win.  If we are competitive each year I feel like he'd re-sign, but he will want to get paid big bucks as expected for being a majority of our offense the last 9 years.

Only if the franchise decides to move on.

Cam will be 31 when he becomes an UFA. He could be franchised for a year, if he has anything left, for a reasonable amount of money, then the team lets him walk at 32. Based on his style of play, it would probably be the best time for the team to part ways. He hasn't shown to be the type of quarterback who will be a league leader worthy of a huge contract if can't play with physicality.

When he's 32 years old, I doubt he'll have that. We should enjoy him until then.

If he wants to win a superbowl.

LOL

But hold on now lets see what the owner can/will do and without Hurney.

I have no interest in worrying about a players choice 2 years from now... makes no sense

Cam should retire when his contract is up. As much as we all love him, he doesnt seem to have the skills to last and be successful as age takes away slowly the gifts and abilities that make so many around here hang on his nuts. He cant take those hits much longer. He cant keep running like he has into his mid 30's. Regardless of how he plays and our record until his contract is up doesnt matter. He has not shown an ability to grow as a passer and have the same longevity as well...so many of the other "older" Qb's.

even the franchise QB? I'd be doing everything I could to save my job and get him to retire here.

[Jon Snow]

I think Cam's fate will depend on who the GM is at the time the new contract negotiations begin.   If it's Hurney Cam will get the highest contract for any player ever at that time.   A new GM? Anything from an extension to a trade is on the table.

[AU-panther]

Only if the team wants him to jump ship.  With the franchise tag option players very rarely leave if the team doesn't want them to.  Would he be willing to play on 2 one year deals?  

 

[CPcavedweller]

This is his first year with a QB coach not named Mike Shula. Norv was hired to develop Cam into a more polished passer and develop a more efficient offense. Shula's offensive design did not protect Cam in any way. Lets see how his development plays out the next two years with some different style of teaching before slamming the door. 

[Mojo]

Maybe.  If he did I don't think anyone could blame him.   The organization has by and large been lax surrounding him with talent and protecting him compared to other franchise guys.
