JR Would Never Pick Cam Anyway


jtm

Recommended Posts

so why are we all wasting our breath? I am not a Cam fan because of his character issues mainly, but it really doesn't matter. JR will never take a player like Cam with all of his questionable character issues. I said the same thing when Vick was a free agent and half this board wanted him. JR is a family man and regardless of what you think about him there aren't many who question his integrity.

People are getting their hopes up for no reason. Here is another one for the Vince Young fans. JR will not get him either for the same reasons. Anyone that has kept up with the Panthers for any period of time cannot in good faith really believe either of these players are possibilities.

Vick was in prison though..had a list a mile long of character/moral/legal issues.

Cam Newton is as clean as Kasay compared to Vick. If Richardson doesn't want him, it will probably be because he talked it over with MH and both agreed that they wouldn't know how to develop him.

He doesn't have anymore character issues than Steve Smith did and he would put more butts in the seats, which would help JR's bottom line trememdously.

Smitty was a 1st rounder, Cam Newton is probably going in the 1st. If we take him, that's 1st overall, biiiiiiiiig difference. If you look at the history of our drafting, we take chances on character issues after the first round, but when all the money's on the line, we take take the saints man lol

^ This. Also, remember we don't have our HC yet. He could have a plan to develop Newton & might be able to convince JR to pick him up.

Wow you people place to much on "character." Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. This play it safe crap has been screwing us over for years its time to take a chance again. JR sounds like a man who had his heart broken by a girl 12 years ago. Oh she hurt me i'm never going to date again lol. Seriously lets put on our big boy pants and start drafting like the rest of the league. Bottomline do you want a role model or a good damn football player. I want to win some games and we can't do that with the boys and girls club of america!

And I agree with him. Newton is a thug that has had repeated issues. he is a friggin one hit wonder in college and someone is going to pay dearly for drafting him high.

I just hope someone is dumb enough to offer us a Hershel Walker type trade for the first overall pick.

    • Love the Freeling pick even more after watching his pressers. Dude is sharp and definitely seems to have the right mentality. I loved hearing how personal he took having a bad game with a torn labrum and instead of seeing that as the reason for his bad game and not changing anything, it motivated him to work even harder. Such a great pick, we finally got our all pro level LT for the next decade and now we can move Ickey to RT or guard with no hurt feelings due to his injury. Second favorite pick is probably Brazzell. He said he false started on his 40 and it cost him probably 0.04 seconds, so he’s more of a 4.33 guy rather than 4.37. Really Randy Moss lite. I didn’t know anything about him prior to drafting him and first highlight reel I saw of him I immediately thought he looked like Moss. Then I saw the measurables and was like yep. Then I see that he’s drawn that comparison by many scouts and analysts. If he can add consistency and play to the level of his highlights every play then we got an incredible value.
    • During his three years at UGA he only allowed 5 sacks. He is only 21 and is on an upward trajectory. He's a great athlete that was good basketball player in high-school.  His height (76% how is this only 76%???? these guys are giants now), hands (81%), span (99%), speed (96%), quickness (10 yd. 86%), and explosiveness (vert. 96%, broad 97%) are all outstanding.  When we took Freeling, Fano, Mauioga, Proctor, and Miller were all off the board so we could have drafted Iheanachor or Lomu instead or waited to the second or third round to take Bell, Tiernan or Barber or wait even longer.  A lot of these tackles (including the first two taken) project to right tackle or guard in the NFL and that's not what we needed now.  Freeling has some sloppiness to clean up in his run blocking, but he's young and getting better.  We can let him get experience behind Walker and Moton knowing if he has to replace one of the two this year, his pass blocking won't get Bryce killed. Icky's not coming back from that injury as a nfl starting left tackle and Moton is in the twilight of his career.  If Walker has a great year, we will have to pay him a lot and if he is medicore we would want to let him walk.  Getting a LT on a rookie contract is going to help a lot with the cap.    
    • It was cool but they have done this at least in recent years unless I am imagining it
