Analysts Interpretations On Cam's Workout

[pantherfan81]

I wish I could actually see some of the workout...

Considering he has a chance of being a Panther I was glad to hear the good things from the workout but I'm not really going to get excited about a workout I haven't even seen.

Brooks Video has footage of it though not enough imo.

I like mayock, but he has to understand that not every successful pro QB played in a pro-style offense in college

the bias against it is a little overrated

I don't think it's as much that he didn't play in a pro-style offense but the fact that he played in nearly the furthest thing from it save the triple option.

There is no denying he's an incredible athlete. I'm interested to see his combine workout so I can make my own judgement on his improvements, what he needs to work on and whether he's worth the number one pick.....

I hate it when the media jumps the gun after 1 measly workout. Theres so much more work to be done. its ridiculous.

not very much of it. I really would like to see more than the same clips over and over. =|

That's why they are the media and scouts are scouts.

Have to agree there. Its makes me trust him less because he just blows him off like a high school groupie.

Warren Moon on Cam:

"But if I see something that I can help him improve on, I'm going to do that," Moon said.

During the session, Moon picked up on something and told Newton.

"He wasn't transferring well," Moon said afterward. "He was throwing leaning backward. Even though he has a very strong arm, I don't care how strong of an arm you have, if you're not in the right throwing motion, you're not going to get good accuracy on the football, the ball is going to go high on you. As soon as he gets that weight transferred, he throws the ball as accurately as anyone you've been around."

You have to understand that the other QBs know that a media workout means nothing in terms of their draft stock, it'll come down to game tape and private workouts.

How many juniors come out with only 1 year of film though. This is not your run of the mill junior QB prospect, so I don't blame him for wanting to get his name out there.

agreed. There is so little of tape on him that he needs to have these workouts so the scouts will have some footage on him.

That was what I was thinking before, but if he doesn't throw at the Combine, I'll be disappointed.

Really hope he does.

His name is out there plenty.

Another thing I noticed at the workout that isn't being talked about that much is his presence. No not his physical presence, which is impressive to say the least but maybe his demeanor around everyone.

He is a very charismatic person but he seemed to be out of his element a little when he wasn't working out. His interviews sometimes got a little choppy almost like he didn't feel comfortable talking about certain things.

It was in direct contrast to what I've seen from him in his college game interviews and everything else. He's usually very charismatic and controls the interview with confidence but this seemed a little different. I can't really put my finger on it.

Maybe because it wasn't after a game with emotions high and he knew these interviews were coming and was nervous, I don't really know. Just seemed off to me.

Really hope he does.

On Total Access Cam implied he was "getting ready for the Combine". I know it's not set in stone but I do believe he will be there with the way he was talking about it.

If he does not throw at the combine then that should tell you all you need to know...

I will say it again he should except every thing they throw at him because its his one shot to prove he can be a Top 10 talent.
