After having played just 2 games in 21 months by the time the 2020 season starts, Cam will be rested and healthy. His whole body will have recovered to an extent it hasn't been in a LONG time because of all the hits he didn't absorb this year. He'll do his usual thing of playing poorly to start the season (especially since I can promise you he won't play next year's preseason) and will go on to have the best season he's had since 2015 by far.

Don't let the pessimists get you down today. This move is best for Cam and the future of the Carolina Panthers.

Anything's possible, but this is not a scenario I would bet money on.

Why? 

I truly don't get why people are jumping off cliffs today. His shoulder will be 100% next year. We have no indication that his foot won't be 100% either. So...what's the problem here? Cam will just be 31 next year, that's middle-age for quarterbacks. A healthy Cam Newton in 2020 will obviously be our best option at QB, much better than any QB we could have at the 16th pick or whatever.

Smarter to keep a recovered cam than let another team reap the benefits.
 

the benefits in keeping cam outweigh the Benefits in releasing or trading him. 
 

kyle Allen still has to ball out the remainder of this year, and have some playoff success for the scale to tip heavily in cam not being here next year.

There's money involved now.  Ignore the talk about the cap savings and think about the security aspect both the team and Cam will be looking for.

I sure hope so. But it's not like he was off vacationing in Hawaii for 21 months. He's been rehabbing injuries to his throwing shoulder (for the second time) and his foot. Cam is a mobile quarterback with messy throwing mechanics which puts a lot of strain on his shoulder. A full recovery doesn't seem likely tbh.

It sucks, but it's true.

His shoulder was supposed to be 100% this year.

Beyond that, of the people with access to the team, there's a lot more pessimism than optimism on that front.

If Cam is healthy next year, I expect he'll play fantastic. And that will lead to a gigantic payday, no?

IF we were looking at the #1 pick, I might understand this speculation. But we're 5-3 and won't sniff Tua, so I don't see any situation where we end up with a better QB in 2020 than Cam.

His shoulder is no longer the issue though right? It's his foot. Do we think that because Cam's last big injury took a lot longer to heal than they thought that this one will too?

      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.

      We're in a great position to see just how big of a misstep it would be, having made so many ourselves
