Cam Newton hit free agency for the first time in his career earlier this week. Where will the 2015 NFL MVP end up? donnovanbennett examines the pros and cons of three potential destinations:

Newton would have weapons at his disposal on the outside he’s never had the luxury of having in Carolina. The Chargers also have a good defence and an offensive line that struggled throughout Philip Rivers’ prime but that has been addressed in the off-season. Any quarterback would dream of playing with tight end in Hunter Henry, two new offensive line pieces in Trea Turner and Bryan Bulaga, a versatile running back in Austin Ekeler and two stud receivers in Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

He also gives the Chargers a chance to be relevant as the team moves into a new stadium in L.A. Newton brings star power and a legion of fans to help create buzz.What if Dwayne Haskins beats Newton out in camp? Is Newton going to sit behind Haskins? Newton rightfully is focusing his energy on salvaging his career, not mentoring the start of someone else’s.

On top of that, Washington already did bring in a quarterback Rivera was familiar with. They just up gave up a fifth-round draft pick for Kyle Allen. They could have traded for Newton before he was released. We’re not sure it makes sense to further migrate the Panthers quarterback room to Washington with the addition of Newton.

If the goal is to put the best product on the field, it’s hard to argue Haskins or Allen or Alex Smith, if and when he miraculously returns to football. Newton would give Washington a better chance to win than Newton.Bill Belichick and Josh McDaniels have a very specific offence. They have run the same offence for 20 years. Accuracy in the short passing game and getting the ball out quickly have been hallmarks in their system. Newton doesn’t seem to fit that prototype.
