The worst article ever published by the Charlotte Observer

I don't think it would go like that.  I think it would be more like we want you here and are willing to pay you the money this year but not next year or the year after.  After all that assumes you get better the next 2 years and how often does a guy get better after hitting 35.  We want your leadership but not when it overshadows other players like Cam or Luke. There is a place on the team for you but with things as tight as they are, we can't pay what you want.  If you are willing to restructure then we want to talk.  If not then we will have to move on.  The choice is yours. Either way you have been one of the greatest Panthers ever.  Lets work together so you can end your career here.

    • Because being a pauper in the NFL is still making a king's ransom. NFL vet min is roughly 18x the median salary in the U.S.
    • At some point I sense it's gonna create some hate and locker room cancer between these cap hogs and the rest of the players. When the top 6 or 7 players take 80% of the cap, the other 40 plus guys are gonna get pissed off, especially when they're still only winning 5 or 6 games. Why put everything on the line to play with guys who are only in it for themselves? 
    • I am just spitballing here--let it play out and I will go to bed: Let's say Mahome's contract comes due and he insists on $100m per season.  Is there a team that would find the money to pay it?  Would KC? It was in 2015 (I think) when Cam was getting $20m and it was hard to grasp.  In the past decade, the price of a franchise QB has tripled.  Then the next QB bases his contract on the Mahomes deal.  The trend has been the last QB contract is the highest.  I see nothing to discourage that trend--Greed can destroy a league.  Personally, I don't watch baseball any more, and the NBA has a small group of about 8 teams that appear on national TV and they have players who make more than some eastern block countries.  Ticket prices go up---and we are headed for pay-per-view very soon across the board-
