Wish they had the same energy when it came to letting him know if he was staying instead of leaving him in the dark until well into fa 

They wanted to see if they could get something in return once he was healed and out of a cast. They can’t tell him whether someone was going to trade for him or not.

If he was on the block, like he should have been, months ago, if they knew they had zero interest in retaining him. If you had no offers by the beginning of March he should have been released at the beginning of fa.

and if he wasn’t on the block until midway through fa that’s just utter incompetence

He was definitely on the block earlier with no interest, but they probably thought they’d be able to get offers when he’s up and about practicing and posting workout videos throwing a football vs. rolling around in a scooter or wheels with his leg in a cast...which wasn’t until pretty recently. And they probably didn’t predict his contact with other teams physically would be limited due to the virus, which certainly didn’t help the situation.

Furthermore, if they just said screw it we will just release him after putting him on IR while he’s still rolling around in a cast, I’m not sure about this, but they may have owed him more money to do that.

It’s as simple as speaking with a interested team and asking if/when cam is healthy would you still be interested in a trade, I also don’t know when he was on the block due to the double talk the Fo engaged in, they said he’s available but for a significant haul so maybe that scared teams off? Idk but either way you slice it, it was handled as poorly as possible

me personally,I don’t think he was seriously on the block until teddy agreed to come here, I think cam was just a backup plan in case teddy wasn’t available, if cam was notified prior to I also don’t think he goes in a interview and says he’ll be back.

I've followed the Panthers since the first Super Bowl run, and honestly believe that Cam put Carolina on the map. Life goes on and the business goes on, so I'm looking forward to when he can come back to be enshrined within the hall of honor.

      Legette. Wrist surgery?

      I remember the Huddle consensus over the course of last season and the previous one. Lots of Bryce is a bust, we should've drafted a 4th slot WR, should've kept Wilks, should've kept an armless Cam, etc etc. So... yea... already thought about that. I wouldn't trust the Huddle to detail my car, let alone run a multi-billion dollar professional sports team. 😛

      bold prediction, I think Mike Green will be the best pass rusher in this class, and thats even with abdul carter.  He reminds me of demarcus ware, not just in size and prowess, but even coming from a Sunbelt school (Ware from Troy, Green from Marshall).  I think he is passionate about the sport where I think Carter as the physical freak might not have the heart.  Thats the guy Im sold on and am gonna hammer the table for, I know he's not projected 8, but he is projected like 12-13, so if a slide back can happen and we still get the guy I want, I'm 100% on board. All that said, it takes 2 to tango, I think the Cowboys are the tango-er.  IMO theres a VERY good shot that Jeanty is available at 8.  Why does that matter?  Not only do the cowboys NEED a runningback (dak sucks without a run game), but MORE importantly, gee where did Jeanty play in high school.....Frisco TX, literally Dallas Metro.  Soo, RB is a position of need and the best RB and most blue chip draft selection that  could improve the offense immensly played IN dallas metro AND will be in range for them to move up and pick?  Do ya think Jerry Jones is gonna just say no to the Jersey Sales?  Jerry might have sexually assaulted a woman and attempted to prevent black people from going to school, but he's no idiot (he is).  IMO, we get a good enough package, prlly their first and third,  maybe a conditional later and we move to 12.  We get Green, they get Jeanty, everbuddy happy.
