Can this happen?


#1 Panthers Fan

Recommended Posts

Someone posted this on Charlotte Observer and I know it sounds like a bunch of horse crap but can this be done now with the new CBA?

Chicago and others looking into negotiating a possible buyout and trying to manipulate a deal to sign Newton since the new union agreement JR signed is non-restrictive and allows rookies to be bought like free agents.

Newtons agent has stated he also does not want to play for the Panthers and feels the Carolina franchise does not meet up to his higher standards and wants out. He uses the word "slop" to describe them.

Technically he also knows his time is limited to move on or he will lose his fleeting appeal monitarily as the losing streak gets worse. 100 million is the demand.

Regardless whether its next week or after the next 11 weeks hes a goner in 2012 as is Smith.

Everything that post says is wrong. Everything. Every word. It even gets the prepositions wrong.

Cam's not going anywhere: this is the NFL, players can be franchise tagged forever, and he really doesn't seem like someone obsessed with money. I mean, he's still living in an apartment.

I also seriously doubt he's the kind of player that wants to go straight to an elite team, because he explicitly stated he wanted us to pick him at #1 and Auburn was a middling team before he picked them as well (in the most difficult conference in the country.)

Cam's a competitor, he wants to win for our team, and have the legacy that goes with turning a losing team into a winner.

    • He's turned into quite a gunslinger
    • Hey guys, remember when we won those meaningless games in 2010 and it cost us the #1 pick and the chance to draft Cam? Oh.... right I get that's more of an extreme example because it got us a HOF caliber QB.  But it's the general concept, you want to win late season games when you have the pieces in place to make a run the next season, we currently are not in that place. Herbert and Sewell are the ones I point to so much, because we literally lost out on 2 franchise different makers by 1 draft slot.  Give us those two players while we still have CMC, Moore, and the rest of the picks we gave up for Bryce, and we'd have been a legit playoff contender the last few years. Draft position matters in the NFL more than any other sport (other than the #1 pick in the NBA in a year with a generational talent).
    • It’s so crazy. If we had a shot for pick 1 and there was some generational player there then yeah maybe I could get behind the draft position argument. I’d say most GMs and coaches aren’t diving into the draft right now. They are trying to win games.
