Cam Newton has garbage written all over him

Read the title. He is not worth the #1 overall. Not even top 5. He would just be another 'project' with 'upside'. Run 1st/ Pass 2nd mentality. He has only played 12 games at Auburn, has never taken a snap under center. He is not use to making the necessary reads to become a passing threat. I'm sorry but I'm not about to take an inexperienced Jamarcus Russell/Vince Young.

Not worth it. I would say trade down but there is absolutely no value at #1 overall since Luck is gone. If you can trade down and grab AJ Green or Peterson (or some other player who can make an impact) then do it. Make a splash in FA. Add a vet at QB to mentor our guys along. And if our players come back healthy (especially Otah) then we should have a decent season next year.

*Sigh* Not that I don't agree, but I can see this is going to go on forever till draft day.

We're going to be going in circles for months. I hope we can start talking about something else cause this is getting stale quick. The fact is, the draft is so far away, our FO is made up of a bunch of loonatics and in the end we have no freaking clue who we are getting anyway, and by the time this season starts, if there's even a season.....we'll probably look back and realize how much time we wasted talking about things that never even had a prayer in hell of actually happening.

I think I'm just going to put on my back-up team jersey and enjoy life until we get closer to the draft and training camp. Go Patriots!

Damn I don't get why people keep comparing him to JaMarcus Russell. Russell was a slow, fat, pocket-passer. Does that sound like Cam Newton?

And if you listen to Newton talk, it's obvious that he's ten times smarter than Russell too. Sure, he would be a risk at #1 overall, but to call him garbage is just pure ignorance. The kid seems to love football, which can go a loooong ways towards success in the NFL.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not.

Hell yeah I'm serious. JeMarcus Russell is a dumbass...and he was the consensus #1 overall pick. I would take Cam Newton over him in any draft.

Well obviously now it's easy to say that. But if you believe Newton is any smarter than Jawalrus I really don't know what to tell you.

no argument here. soon as he was drafted he said something like...

I's gonna go eat a dozen eggs, pound o bacon, etc.

that's dumb as hell if you want to make a career being an athlete.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option s a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The patter it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.

      Dude, I'm saying the Cardinals have proven they know nothing. Not saying keeping Bryce is the best choice long term, just saying that we've made the right move for this moment in time.  But man, the Cardinals are never a blueprint for success. Haven't been since they were in Chicago.
