Tepper. "Cam's future is going to largely be up to how good he feels,"

So Tepper and others. 
What has Rhule said on Cam’s future up to this point?

The media would have played that one up, big time. He made the wiser of the two comments but either way it shouldn’t be viewed as the end all. 

Oh I’m not by any stretch. I seem to be in the rather small camp of “hopes Cam can come back and ball out but worried his health and age are working against him and also Super worried about the line we’d be putting him behind and wondering if we’d be doing the guy any favors by keeping him here through the rebuild.”

Its a highly nuanced camp but the sign is kinda long. If anyone wants to join we have s’mores for the campfire.

"But other than that, I would much rather talk to those guys (Tepper and Hurney) and kind of get a feel for not just Cam but all those players on the roster and really have a good process moving forward for the entire roster."

I mean this was a few weeks ago.

Im sure he's talked to Hurney and Tepper by now on key players.

I think he is gone.  Recent rumors this week is that Gruden wants him to spearhead the team and be the poster boy for when they move to vegas.  Its all just rumors at this point but if he is healthy and can prove it somehow predraft I could see them part with the 19th pic for Cam.  Makes a bunch of sense.  Then they turn and give cam a new deal.  Works for all parties

If he’s healthy we shouldn’t be trading him period.

Unless he wants out and they can’t change his mind and which I hope isn’t the case but could still be on the board as a possibility. You gotta think if you’re Cam and looking at your career goals at 30, the thought has to at least have crossed your mind in the last few months “Is this the best place for me to be?”

ESPECIALLY after the Kuechley bombshell.

Gross breaks it down why its better for both parties to split.  He knows cam so I think he is hinting strongly that Cam really doesnt want to change offenses or take orders from brady/rhule

Cam in Vegas is a perfect match.

It is most definitely in cams best interest to not play for this dumpster fire. But it’s in the panthers best interest to not trade/release if he is healthy.

Man, we have had dozens of threads about this in regards to the panthers and Cam.   The panthers want to start over, create their own culture.  There is just no way a 30 year old cam that has missed a ton of time factors into this.  If he was in say the second year of his deal then it may make more sense.  Whats the point of trotting him out there for 8(?) wins knowing you have to immediately turn around and sign him to another long term deal?  It literally makes no sense.

 

Brady/rhule want a qb that is not set in his ways so to speak and while I am sure both respect cams game there is a certain limitation to it now with him being hurt.

We’re talking about a healthy Cam though, that’s what you were arguing. That we should trade cam even if he’s healthy. If that’s the case then they better be damn sure they get someone on par with a healthy Cam. Because if Cam is healthy and thrives elsewhere meanwhile we are stuck without a franchise qb for the next 4 to 5 years and an offense whose centerpiece is a rb. We are fuged. franchise qbs are hard to find. No doubt it’s a tricky situation. Let’s hope they get this right.

 

also this, not set in his ways is bullshit. One of the reasons we got Brady is because he’s suppose to be able to adapt to the personnel we have and what they do best.
