Panthers To Allow Cam Newton To Seek Trade

[Mother Grabber]

have we gotten our 2 1st for him yet or what? must be a bidding war, so we’ll end up with 3-4 firsts, and Aaron Donald.

No one is stupid enough to trade for a mentally and physically handicapped ego maniac....he will be cut and save cap space....this guy is so done and everyone in the league knows it.

PREDICTION: Panthers will cut Cam on Friday

I think, as Mr. Scot says, that move will happen once Teddy passes his physical.

That seems to be what the Panthers want.

If that drags out though, it's not necessarily fair to Newton. It would lessen his chances of being able to get one of the available starting jobs.

If they did do it today, they could conceivably take advantage of the "Friday news dump" option.

Prediction Cam signs with Washington once released.

Wouldn’t he have already passed his physical if he inked?

He's not official yet.

Gotcha.

Imagine if no team signs Cam as a starter and he refuses to sign on as a backup.

Cam to the XFL next season?

He will be signed, teams are waiting to get the 21M number down enough before jumping in....only the Pats could make a trade for him currently and not piss off their fans.

Can't imagine Cam taking less money to start elsewhere though. He doesn't have much to leverage with, hence my XFL speculation. He'd make less, by far, than he is worth...but it's tape and evidence to show his capability. Granted, the risk for him then is getting hurt in a lesser league and hurting his stock even more.

No chance.  He will be on a roster opening day, even if he isn't the starter.

This likely won't end with Cam being happy, hence me saying were I him, I would be hat in hand, going straight to New England to take pretty much anything that I could to try to be their starter....then go for the bigger contract next offseason.

Honestly hope so. Would love to see him have success. Don't want to see the guy go from on top of the world to just a name.

If the panthers are smart(they’re not) they’ll hang onto cam until somebody’s starter gets hurt in camp or early in the season. He can prove his health and a team is desperate. Most likely they’ll release him tho because this FO is retarded
