What would Luck's jersey number be?

Cam Newton is the #1 player at stealing laptops.

Whew, I want him to be the leader of the franchise.

**waits for someone to defend it, by saying he bought a stolen laptop. However, when the cops came in he threw it out the window. **

Yes, charges were dropped but only because he went through a pretrial program.

[Carl Spackler]

at the moment, Newton is a late first round prospect

No, he isn't. Where do you get that from? Your own mock draft?

That's pretty weak for a reason not to pick somebody. Because as we all know Steve Smith was an angel when he was drafted. I don't mean to side with KT on this but it certainly does seem that some people are looking for excuses to not cheer for Newton.

Im just saying, I would rather have the QB who has a 4.0 at Stanford, and not one who has constantly been surrounded by controversy.

ESPN, Scouts, etc.....none have Newton drafted very high. So far its all just talk radio/media conventional wisdom.

Give him 17 to bring old Smith back.

[TerriblePizza]

Luck should be 17 in honor of our franchise's best QB.

Thats the tone you get out of this fanbase. They demonize all black QBs to rationalize not wanting them. If we portray them all as the "devil" or the worst thing that could happen to us, then we dont have to feel guilty or "racist" about not wanting any of them. Im glad people outside of our fanbase are starting to pick up on that and see why we've struggled so much as a franchise to win and remain relevant or entertaining. Dudes cant attack what Cam does on the field, so they attack his character. Thats how I know he's head and shoulders the best QB coming out.

[LaChance87]

We could give him 7 after elway and for Luck.

I agree! I like that although Baker wears that number. I say go opposite and go with 13. Luck wearing the "unlucky" 13.

Yeah, cause the leader of a franchises character is meaningless.

But, I am not starting one of these again.

So put ya popcorn back up.

Luck wont be in a classroom out there. And opposing defenses arent gonna lay down because they think Luck can point out Cambodia on a globe. Id rather have the QB thats a proven winner, rather than one who's hyped solely on potential and looks.

That QB doesn't exist. Luck maintained a 3.5 GPA

[The NFL Shield At Midfield]

lol "he's a winner". What a great argument

[PantherBrew]

I am not doing this again, KT.

You win.
