With no real market right now for Cam, would you try a low ball offer to potentially grab a franchise QB?

I only can hope some team that might have traded up for a QB signs him.
 
Nope, he’s a terrible quarterback once his athleticism evaporates and that’s exactly what has happened.
 
I wouldn't do it, but if I were a gm that looked at things in terms of just the next 4 or 5 year window I might. I think a qb like Newton will win as many or more games over the next 4 or 5 years as most of the 1st round rookie qbs. If I'm Miami you've waited too long to be in a position to add a young qb to pass up the opportunity now.
