Cam Newton extension: Five years more than 100+ million. Fully guaranteed?

If this means what it sounds like it means, it is a game changer. Fully guaranteed? Wow.

I don't see it as that big of a deal.

Franchise QBs are always taken care of.

But it should be one or the other. Less money or less guaranteed.

It is a big deal because it is fully guaranteed. That has never happened in the NFL. That contract changes things.

I understand. I just don't think it is that huge.

QBs are always pushing the envelope. I doubt it carries over to other positions

Plus the devil is in the deets. Is it for injury only and is it staggered?

Cam isn't worth that and there is no way I would fully guarantee any amount.

 

[jrumann59]

I think the word "OF" is missing somewhere

 

[Rogah]

Well it better be fully guaranteed or a bunch of people in here will accuse the Panthers of not honoring their deal.

Honestly,they should have let him go.

Get another qb in the draft.

 

[AzorAhai]

I don't think its fully guaranteed. It probably just means the guaranteed money is actually real. Not like a Kaepernick or Dalton deal where they can be released with minimal future implications before a certain date each year.

Cam does have a marketability though. That team needs it.

 

[YosemiteSam]

Damn, I wish the Eagles would have done that.

 

[LittleBoyBlue]

Yes. You are correct.....


If you win championships ..... That's marketability too.

I don't think they win with him.

Is this like the fully guaranteed contract we heard Wilson was going to get?

My thinking to...as in "extension is full (of) guarantees".

Huge difference between that and fully guaranteed. That would be insane. Maybe 70-80% more guarantees than any player in in NFL history.

Its either full of guarantees or by full guarantees he means the guaranteed portion is fully guaranteed from day 1, not that funny money SF and CIN gave to Kaepernick and Dalton.

 

[DFWJC]

My guess is it's in the 100 million range with 50-60 million guaranteed.
