Cincinnati will take Joe Burrow. Miami will take Hebert or Hurts. Tampa needs a QB who can start day 1. So does Tennessee and that might be Cam. Tua will fall right into our lap. I will invest a high 1st rounder in a rookie QB who is coming off a dislocated hip than invest 19-35 million per year to an old QB that is coming off shoulder and foot injuries. 
 

Cam Newton days are over. Fans can quit denying that. Ron Rivera and Marty Hurney are done as well. The new regime will not stay with Cam. 
 

1: If Newton decides that he does not want to retire, Cam Newton will not be a lame duck QB next year. He has a family to feed and is not stupid enough to invest hurting himself again to lose more money in the next contract. The new regime will not give Cam that extension. 
 

2: Cam Newton is Eli Manning. His good days are done with. People need to realize that now is the time to replace Cam. Just like how people should’ve realized that it was time to replace Eli Manning 2 years ago. I saw someone talking on a show last week. He talked about how instead of replacing Eli, NYG got rid of Tom Coughlin who was a good HC.

And risk losing it all?  Don't think so.

Losing what? Unless he goes number 1 overall he's going to lose alot of money in guarantees if healthy next year he'll probably win the heisman and a national championship making him more then likely the # 1 pick in next year's draft

What happens if he suffers another similar injury.  Most guys take the huge payday.  You never know when your career could end.

If he is okay I would take Tua.  He is a darn good QB if his hip has recovered well enough.  We still could trade Cam to get extra picks.  Give Tua an extra year to heal and see how well his hip is before turning over the reins to him.  Even if we don't get a 1st for Cam we should get a 2nd and 3rd round pick.  If we are going to rebuild are we letting Luke go too?  We can get more for Luke than we can for Cam.  He might be having a slump year but GM's would love to have him as their MLB.  If we blow it up go all the way and get as many draft picks we can.

    • Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist
    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
