Why Haven't The Panthers Cut Cam Yet?

Because they don't have to, and are holding out hope for getting something in return.

Also, they may have to work through an injury settlement, and let's just say that Cam and the Panthers brass are probably not on the very best of speaking terms right now.

Because Teddy hasn't been able to do a physical yet and he has a knee that's been through the equivalent of a car getting wrapped around a telephone pole then plummeting off a cliff before bursting into flames.

If Bridgewater were to fail his physical (which, for the record, is highly unlikely) yikes!

Wow you might be the worst so called Panthers fan on this forum. You need to be banned, don't know why people picked you to be a mod. Maybe one day, but until then damn.

What I said is accurate. Teddy had the most severe knee injury possible. That's accurate. We're not signing him to a contract before he passes a physical. That's accurate. Sorry you got all up in your feels, again.

And Cam is out because of giving him a new contract after injury isn't financially prudent. Then they get a guy, with all due respect, with a very horrific injury history and give him more $. Dumb. Spiteful. Petty.

OP,

Why would we cut Cam now when there is still a chance a team could trade for him?

You hold him to the last day possible. 

That effectively screws him out of a chance to get a starting job elsewhere, though. And all indications are that nobody's trading for him. Heck, the Bears were so unsure of his health status they decided Nick Foles would be a better option.

Latest word is that the team will cut him as soon as Bridgewater is official, but things are so complicated now no one knows when that will be.

They could decide to just go ahead and let him go anytime, though.

    • I don't know--they represent the entire body of players and this be determined, if it got to that point, by a vote of all veterans and rookies who are part of the union.  If the elite players are getting 50% of all cap increases, the non-elite players with shorter careers might want a bigger slice of the pie and vote accordingly.  To say that the Union would not go for it is not something I agree with--it would be the union that proposes it--based on a proposal and a majority vote.  If the veteran players vote for an equal distribution framework, then all 53 on a roster benefit from a cap increase that is applicable to the entire team.  Not sure how labor laws might be impacted...
    • Carter, Graham, or Walker and I might roll the dice hoping Walker is around later.  If Hunter is there at 8, we are about to get a really nice haul for trading back.
    • Oh well. That's his fault if he wants to eat up all the cap space and have no protection as a result. A big part of why Brady has all those rings is that he generally took team friendly deals. Not that he wasn't making a mega ass ton of money, but he wasn't leaving his team cap strapped due to his contract while Peyton Manning generally tried to negotiate for every dime he could get forcing the Colts to make tough decisions.
