Trent Dilfer on Cam Newton's just-completed media workout: "That was phenomenal. If scouts saw this they'd have been slobbering."

Per Gantt RT

Good for us! Our #1 pick just gained value! Cha-Ching!

i'm sure the panthers would be ecstatic to have newton become a sensation and the apple of every other team's eye. can only help the possible trade market, or even PR should the panthers elect to choose him at #1.

TRD will have a review up later, very eager to see it.

[mav1234]

btw, this probably doesn't make us more likely to take him, just more likely to gt offers for the #1. Yay?

[rayzor]

had no doubt it would be.

as much of a cam guy as i am, pro days, combine, and private workouts are meant to give the prospect the best possible look by eliminating competition coming at them and putting them in the most ideal of situations.

still, a guy like newton could help his stock some. best place for him to do that, though, is through interviews.

But if he is that good........... I'm just sayin

Sorry, I'll take Trent Dilfer's word on it over anyone posting on this board.

C'mon Hurney! Go Newton!!!

go green

Draft him #1. Then have non-team sponsored 'scrimmages' that just happen to have the rest of the team there, and occasionally member from other teams, during the lock out. When games resume in 2012, he will have a year of experience and ready to go.

Speaking on ESPN Thursday afternoon, analyst Trent Dilfer called Auburn QB Cam Newton's Thursday media day workout "one of the most phenomenal personal workouts I've ever seen."

"If scouts saw this they'd have been slobbering," added Dilfer, who called Newton a "dynamic athlete" and "incredibly impressive." Dilfer praised Newton's refinement, accuracy, and arm strength while proclaiming the "sky is the limit." Newton's measurables have never been in question, so it's hardly surprising that he excelled in a controlled environment. It is a positive sign, though, that the tutoring on his footwork and acclimation to working under center have paid off. It now seems likely that a team with a top-five selection will fall in love Newton, but his character concerns and football acumen will still be scrutinized over the next two months.

I'm moving more and more over from the AJ Green camp to the Cam Camp.

Why did they only invite media to the workout and no scouts?

To create hype that is apparently working

He is the best QB in the draft based on his potential alone. Cam Newton seems like he has came along way since working with his new QB coach. The draft is still a couple months away. I still want to see how the interviews play out, and scouts observations
