lose?

Cam only playing one year and winning it all means no one knows how he will react when he loses. It is eventually going to happen. Will he become even more focused? Who the hell knows? That is my biggest fear about him.

Cox on Walterfootball released their scouting report on him today and in reading it that is what pops out. Is he mature enough to handle it appropriately, and will he be able to learn that maturity appropriately seeing as he has no vet to sit behind as of now?

Strengths:

# Elite mobility for his size

# Strong arm

# Relatively accurate

# Hard to bring down

# Leadership

Weaknesses:

# Maturity and character concerns

# Only one season of major college experience

# Relies too much on athleticism over fundamentals

# Poor throwing mechanics

# Hardly any experience under center

# Mostly makes only one or two reads

I question the leadership because of him being on a winning team, I mean is that how you judge leadership by sticking someone on a winning team? I think the best time to judge leadership is under a sinking ship, like Delhomme for instance. Auburn has a lot of other talent and I feel someone was someone else's crutch. I am not sure who, no one can be as of now but I think it will really show through in the NFL.

Yea I know another Newton thread but I am bored and trying to find a way to like this guy more so I won't have a heart attack if we do draft him. I also really want a franchise QB.

I don't know. He has been with three different national championship teams, so maybe he doesn't know how to lose but he certainly knows how to win.

So going from a D-1 school back to a lower ranked school, and working his way back to a D-1 school where he wins it all and learns 3 different systems in 3 years doesn't show leadership. The fact that he admitted his mistakes and has worked very hard to redeem himself and been a model citizen the past 2 years doesn't show character and maturity??

He did what most folks wouldn't have done, start over to rebuild his career and image. Everything he has said or done in the past 2 years shows he is a humble grateful player who respects the chance he was given to redeem himself.

There is alot of things he needs to work on but maturity and leadership aren't two of them IMO.

I can see this draft haunting us for years to come...What if we don't draft him and he goes to the bills or vikings and drive them through the playoffs for years to come...Players development depends on the system and there physical attributes...This guy is raw talent...with the right coaching staff behind this guy he could be very dangerous to the opposing teams...but time will only tell...and that goes for Standford's Andre Luck...Only time will tell for all these players....Its time for the Huddle to break and sit on the sidelines and watch this one play out or at least until the private workouts and combine results to come in....Personally,I would have a lot more respect for the front office if they did Draft him because it would show that the franchise is willing to take a risk...Just to win...something this franchise hasn't done ever..We never was involved and any big trade unless we were giving up a player. Never did anything in FA but get old or players that can't suit up...The old way never worked and so why not...Pickles was pro ready...syke...He was always a loser...and its no way in hell we will win with him as a starter in a panthers uniform...

      The Panthers win streak is masking substandard quarterback play

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      He’s been every bit as much of the problem as anyone else. You cant remove him from that fact, he is just as much part of the team and in THE most important position on the field. But this is the first season he’s seen any kind of continuity in his team and coaches. And he’s shown flashes here and there. But we do need more out of him going forward a lot more if we are going to be successful

      Bryce isn’t great and super mid. But I think can be a game manager. What do we think is out there? Daniel Jones isn’t going anywher. Mac Jones? Zach Wilson? Pickett. I’m just not sure what’s out there that is much better without having to give up a ton of capital. Rather take one more step closer to contention with our early rounders next year with FS and LB help. Make this  place where dang they got a defense and a WR1 and solid RB room. I can win with that and want to be here

      Vet QB Options - Trade/Cut/FA Edition

      By amcoolio · Posted

      AR15 is if Justin Fields was fragile and his teammates hated him. No thanks. Ya'll think you hate watching Bryce Young? Wait until your QB can't even complete a 7 yard pass over the middle, which Fields and Richardson can't do. If the draft class was better, I could absolutely see the Titans moving on from Ward already if they got the #1 pick. But so far the college QB's haven't impressed enough. They'll have flashes, but then follow it up with a very meh game. Kyler is already done in Arizona, but he has a ridiculous contract and he's basically Bryce that likes to scramble, so no thanks. If Lawrence can't produce with that team in Jacksonville, what do you think he'll do here? He's tall Bryce who can throw deep but can't make the 4th down throws and crumbles in the red zone. No thanks. I do think Canales wants to move on from Bryce, his body language says so even in wins. He treated Bryce pretty odd this week and Bryce looked checked out in the Packers game. But unless they make another risky trade, its going to be slim pickings. Basically our hopes lie in hitting early in the draft with a Mateer, Nussmeier, Beck type or finding a random backup free agent that has another gear to hit.  I think even with the draft being wishy washy, 4-5 QB's will be taken in the top 7. A lot of teams are just that desperate.
