Panthers | Cam Newton's pay to be down significantly

[snick103]

Carolina Panthers QB Cam Newton is likely to receive a contract in the range of five years and $35 million with the new rookie payscale in the new collective bargaining agreement. In the old CBA, St. Louis Rams QB Sam Bradford, the No. 1 pick of the 2010 draft, received six years and $78 million.

I think this is good will help out for the Jamarcus Russell, Alex Smith,Leafs out there. To much money is wasted on these rookie QBs who have not produced yet. I am glad to see this!!!

I like the pay per performance idea it would get these young guys to actually play

Well, considering Cam Newton will be the next JaMarcus Russell, at least the Panthers will 'only' waste $35 million on him instead of $80M.
