Just from my viewpoint: 

CJ's not quite comfortable with the nationally televised interviews just yet. But he has a confidence I like in a QB. I think the team would rally behind him. Behind the scenes he seems like the type of teammate you'd want in your locker room. Has that fire in him. 

With Young, the Bryce you get here is the Bryce you get at all times. Just a calm collected dude. More of a lead by example type...media training not a priority in the least. Seems coachable.. 

Lol, it's almost like a lesser charismatic Cam vs Wilson personality matchup. 

Idunno, just give me the one with the most heart and determination. The one that hates to lose. Either way I'll be happy. 

Wanted Stroud at first but Bryce is growing on me.

The Bryce media tour thing is a little weird to me. I don't doubt either ones desire to compete, it's just been an odd few weeks. I can't remember if another potential first pick did this much voluntary media the week before the draft

Exactly. I dont have a horse in the race but if I had to choose one, give me the one that hates to lose just as much as Cam Newton did

Love Cam but he had 3 winning seasons here. 

We're still doing this? He was the only MVP in franchise history. He came in and changed the culture of the team. Guys used to just be happy with their contracts and go home. Cam despised losing to his core. We needed that. Hopefully whomever we draft we are getting some of that again.

Trevor Lawrence was on every show under the sun the week of the draft. The only difference now is that podcasts are much more prevalent now. 
 

you also probably notice it more bc we have the number one pick and he is mocked by 90% of the to go to us. 
 

his interview cycle isn’t unusual. It’s just unusual to us.

But it changed nothing, really. Because of Ron. Cam could hate losing as much as he did, and he was very visible about it at the podium after every loss. But at the end of the day that losing culture absolutely did not change. I love Cam. To this day he is the only autographed NFL jersey I own. But Ron is the reason the culture didn’t change around losing while Cam was here. 

It’s good to have your best player hate it like Cam did, but without the coaches and ownership hating it just as much, if not more, it doesn’t change. Ron was a let down. Hopefully Frank will be that guy for us.

    • You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.
    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
