Just because fans on a message board say we are moving on from Cam doesn't make it official. We all knew Luke was one concussion away from retirement for the last 3 years. The FO has probably known about this for some time.

The restructuring proves that they didn't.

This front office is as dumb as a bag of dicks.  That's not surprising.

This by about $11M.

How could anyone believe the front office knew about this while staring at the Luke contract that just killed Carolina's salary cap?

How are so many Hurddlers getting the impression that Cam is definitely gone because Luke retired? 

They thought we had an outside chance at being good if Luke and Cam were both on the team.  Once Luke retired, they no longer thought we were good enough to shoot for the playoffs and now they think Cam will force his way out since we can't compete.

They are massively underestimating how bad our roster is.  Even with a healthy Cam and Luke out there next season, I still don't see us winning the division, or finishing better than 8-8.

I don't really think Luke's retirement has that much effect on it. Newton's situation hasn't really changed.

For me, his return still falls under the heading of "possibly but unlikely".

Agreed, I don't think either had any bearing on the other.

Could Cam be our starter in 20?  Sure.

Is that likely?  No.

I think that the Panthers will get the #1 pick before April. It’s obvious that David Tepper is willing to spend money and do whatever he can to get the best guys here in Carolina. We didn’t just bring Joe Brady here for no reason. The future is Joe Burrow.

I mean, could it potentially make Newton less likely to want to be here? Possibly, but it doesn't affect the main issues.

Why though? If we are rebuilding and have Cam on the cheap (relatively) why not see what he can do, draft young talent and see where it lands in 2021?

If Cam is injured and it's obvious he's done then we address QB with a high 2021 draft pick and utilize the young talent we drafted in 2020.

If Cam thrives and returns to his old form then you don't have to stress over QB in the 1st in 2021, continue to surround him with talent.

If Cam looks good but doesn't fit your long term plans, move him for a pick. At the moment I don't see it until he plays and proves to a team he's worth trading for.

Thats easy.  Panthers are rebuilding and Rhule and Co are not hitching their long term plans on a 30 year old coming off 2 major surgeries who is going to be very expensive in 2021. 

 

After thinking a lot about the different scenarios I could see the panthers just cutting him to save the money if he isnt healthy come March/april.

Thanks,  Predictions are all over the place right now. No one knows where we will be. It's probably safe to assume that we'll be worse but we could have a better record next season.
