Cam Newton and Jameis Winston are training with quarterback guru George Whitfield Jr. out in California this offseason.

Whitfield is known as a quarterback whisperer of sorts and is one of the most sought after coaches not directly involved with an NFL franchise.

The photo has drummed up rumors that Newton has taken Winston under his arm and is mentoring him prior to the beginning of his NFL career.

The relationship is an interesting one, with Winston likely being the number one pick, as Newton was, and both quarterbacks having character issues coming out of college.

Like Winston, Newton was accused of stealing during his time at his university, but his other wrongdoings were never more than accusations of taking illegal benefits while being a “scholar-athlete.”

 

 

For what it's worth...

What I take from this is happiness that Cam is spending some time with Whitfield Jr. this offseason! He is an excellent QB coach and really helped Cam before the draft

 

I think Cam knows Winston will probably be playing for Tampa next year and is getting us some early scouting material...

Please God no....

Cam, you don't need to hang around guys like Jamis...or Al Sharpton. Bad for your image man!

Yeah because a guy who was studying to be a doctor and got accepted to Stanford is a terrible guy to pick their football brains. I'm glad. Hopefully cam is learning as much from jameis as jameis is learning from cam.

i actually think this is a pretty cool thing for cam to do. he's dealt with a lot of the stuff winston's going to deal with and he'll be able to offer advice to help him keep his head straight on the field and off.

 

unless he gets drafted by the bucs, in which case i hope cam gets him to snort a line on a stripper's ass and takes a picture and sends it to gordell

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
