Cam Newton Public Workout

[monstercat]

Plus one NFL scout said he wouldn't be surprised at all if Newton went number 1 overall so they are all over the map right now. We will know more after 2/10

Exactly, these analysts and scouts are still gathering information and they will be right up until draft day. People are acting like it's unheard of for a players stock to rise.

My point all along as been that Cam's stock will rise as they go through the process, and this workout is just the first step.

Hell, I still remember that some scouts and analysts thought Peyton Manning looked too skittish in the pocket, so they had Ryan Leaf ranked ahead of him. The professionals disagree with each other just as often as us fans do, and they are actually wrong just about as often as well. If they were always right, then Tom Brady would have never lasted until the 6th round.

Thanks for trying the continued Character Assassination though.

You don't really need any help with that, it's more like a Character Suicide.

That's the best part. The that just acknowledged that he had some footwork issues and needed work were "haters" because his footwork was always fine, you must not have seen that highlight vid someone posted that one time in every thread. When they made great strides and it is NOW NFL ready, it shows it lacked before.

Of course we will somehow still be wrong about him and still only be haters and the other group will always know that his footwork was fine before and he didn't need it.

I wonder if they will question his accuracy on NFL throws next, instead of those swings and hitches that made his % over 70. :eek:

How is it I "Acknowledged" that he had poor footwork? Because I quoted an ESPN article that had him work with a QB specialist for FOUR DAYS, and the guy said he was blown away by his footwork?

But yeah, you'll reach for anything to prove a point as evidenced by the fact you believe an average NFL DT's can run a 40 yard dash in 4.7 seconds.

How can you say this is the first step to making his stock rise when scouts and execs call it a publicity stunt and don't know why the hell he's doing it? They seem more annoyed than impressed.

His stock can rise, but only if he does the right things and plays the game the right way. If he lets his dad try and prove Cam is bigger than the combine/pro days/draft then he won't rise at all.

Keep hanging on to that even though I said I was grossly misinformed and was completely wrong.

Not everyone sees Locker as a first rounder. Sorry.

If you want to quote Russ Lande as an authority, that's wise because he is one. But for the sake of your argument, you might want to look up what he's previously said about Newton.

Ex-NFL scout: Cam Newton is not a 1st round draft pick

Lande considers Newton to be two to three years away from being ready to play in the NFL as a traditional quarterback.

Before the Auburn-Alabama game, they showed highlights of Newton’s poor mechanics, especially his lazy footwork. Lande has him rated as the 51st player in his Super 99.

When I'm wrong, I'll be the first person to admit it. I'm a passionate Panther's fan and want my team to succeed and see a chance at that in Newton. If that makes me a son of a bitch in some people's eyes on a message board, so be it.

When Newton is drafted, by whomever, I'll change the sig.

Besides, when you have a chorus of idiots around you backing up your wrong thinking, it's a whole lot easier to sound and look smart. Just ask Mr. Scot.

That is because you are about 9 threads to late. If you want to see good reasons, do your own fugging research on this forum instead of acting like you are right because everyone is ignoring you.:dita:

You seriously think to highly of yourself.

Once again, if there are scouts out there who will pass on Cam because of a workout that hasn't even happened yet, then they suck at their jobs and need to be fired.

You are blowing this so out of porportion that it's not even worth arguing about anymore. And BTW, have you not wondered how many execs and scouts Rang talked to before he got the quote that he was looking for all along?

So we're going to start quoting another scout because you are wrong? LOL.

I don't get what you have against Mr. Scot. He's one of the most universally respected posters on this board besides by people who have a love affair with Newton because all they see is race. You and KT are the only ones.

Keep going with that character suicide

You look dumber and dumber in every post. You use one source as a point to debunk someone else even though that same person had your favorite player ranked low second round.

This should be your new sig

Too highly I think you meant.

Actually, I was just pointing out that a guy whom you cited as an authority in order to bolster your point has actually said things that directly contradict your view of Cam Newton.
