Bold Prediction. Deshaun Watson gets suspended for a year.  

Baker Mayfield ends up being a Panther. 

Cam Newton ends up in Cleveland.

That is bold.

I like it.

But keep in mind that Jacoby Brissett was signed for this reason specifically. If Cam doesn't get signed by them soon, I don't think they would go down that road unless Brissett gets injured.

I totally forgot about Jacoby. This is going to get ugly for Deshaun and Cleveland. Baker is out of there... and it seems like we're really trying to pounce on that situation.

Based on Cam's media lately... We're unlikely to bring him back. But even with Brissett, Clevelands QB room needs to be bolstered.

That would be another episode of Cam reflecting on being in a fugged up situation. 
 

Who cares anyway……we have Queen City News as our new flagship station!!!! I’m still on a high from that news yesterday.

I think there is logic in all of this and proves bold doesn't have to be far fetched. 

I agree with Deshaun suspension.  It is inevitable.

If Cleveland gets a bit more desperate, I can see this happening.

I think Cam ends up in Houston or Seattle.

I am not sure about the Watson situation. I suspect the punishment will either be too harsh or not harsh enough. The NFL rarely metes out fair punishment. 

I think the Browns are looking at this long term so I doubt their concern level is high. The fact they signed Jacoby tells me they knew him being suspended for 2022 was a possibility. It's not terrible for them, he wouldn't get paid any salary.

assuming "he" is Watson:   thought the bulk was fully guaranteed, aside from the 2022 per-game number?  Folks suggesting the Browns are going to be on the hook for $230m regardless, due to how the contract was structured.

I think they can technically get out of his 2022 salary. Depends on how it was written. They also have the option to legally pursue the money back from him but that seems very doubtful unless they want a disgruntled QB....again.

There's talk that Major League Baseball putting a guy on a two year suspension even without criminal charges might affect how the NFL treats Watson. Some believe the league might not want to look "soft" on sexual misconduct issues.

Don't know if anything comes of it but it kinda makes sense, especially given the new allegations and the New York Times story.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
