Bigger gamble Allen's ascension or Cams ability to stay healthy?

You are assuming Cam wants to, or will, play on a one year deal.

Why wouldn't he do so?

Away from that, if Tepper says to play out the one year deal Cam must do so.....or, sit out.  If he sits out next season too he's probably done in the NFL.

Cam has no leverage.  The smartest thing he can do is show up and ball out for a year....then reap the payback for doing so.

I sure hope Cam has representation that gets it....

Because I don’t know too many teams that will trade for Cam AND give him a new contract without him playing some meaningful games first. 

The number that would do so = zero.

I'm more worried can Cam stay healthy with Ron as head coach

(i)  Exactly.

(ii)  If Cam is given a contract/extension prior to entering a game next year it won't be worth the paper it is written on....$0.00 guaranteed.

you completely left out the context of my arugement nice try.

Biggest gamble is placing either behind this OL.

Cam making $20M vs Kyle making <$1M has to be a significant factor in this decision.

He won’t have much choice. The Panthers May choose to give him a raise but they are not obligated to do anything except tender him the EFRA or the MERSA or whatever that obscure thing is. He could in theory sit out, but his leverage is pretty close to zero and that move would be shooting himself in the foot.

Actually he will play for less than $1 million after this year. 

He is under contract.

If teams like Chicago are willing to give him a multi year deal (desperate teams will) why would be play on a one year behind a shaky line with an injury history. It’s Cam’s best interest to wait for a multi year deal and he should do what’s best for him just like Tepper will do what is best for the team. Unfortunately it’s a business...

cam has no leverage?   cam wouldn't mind being traded to chicago.   cam's not playing on a 1 year deal.

We got Jake off the garbage heap and he took us to a SB .  Maybe Allen can do it too .  If not , he is a quality back up .

Its a win win .

I dont want Ron here next year as the head coach of no matter who the qb is.

Both are gambles, However in nfl history, There’s only a handful of successful undrafted qbs.

I stand firmly by what I’ve been stating, smartest decision barring cam wanting out, ect is to let cam get 100% healthy, sit down with him and let him know due to his recent injury history we are not looking to extend him yet, but he still is the panthers franchise qb when healthy.

in the meantime you develop both Grier and Allen in preparation that cam maybe breaking down or that one of them has the potential to replace cam down the road. 
 

unless you can sell me on what drastic changes 19.1 mil will do for this team I don’t see the benefits in cutting or trading cam unless you’re 1000% sure he’s done 

This presupposes Cam can get 100% healthy again. That definitely is not guaranteed.
