If we don't draft him I'm done with this team. I can't pull for a team with no balls.

It had nothing to do with balls, its about calculated risk. #1 pick is either a big investment with a rookie cap in place or a fuggin HUGE investment without the cap. If I bet you $100 with a contract that said you had to pick 4 of next years playoff teams & if you were wrong you had to pay me $200, would you take it? What if I bet you $1,000 & you had to pay $3,000? How about $2,000, 000 if you can pick the SB winner & their score & if you're wrong you have to pay me $300,000?

What if I bet you $20mil that the Panthers couldn't have 10 winning seasons in a row & if they don't you have to be the sub @ a gay mandingo gangbang party once a month?

What if I made a bet with you and if I was wrong it would set the franchise back 4-5 years. But if I was right the Panthers would be the most exciting and dynamic franchise in football over the next 15. Would you take that??

The thing that will make or break Cam is how he does in chalkboard/tape sessions with teams. If he can demonstrate even a basic understanding of offensive concepts, his draft stock will shoot way up.

Yeah, because heisman winning QB's don't have a basic understanding of offensive concepts? Just because he doesn't come from a pro-style offense doesn't mean he is a retarded robot that just runs around with the ball. On the other hand, I am not claiming that he can fully grasp a Pro Offense, but to question his understanding of basic offensive concepts (30 Passing TD's and 20 Rushing TD's last season) is a little ridiculous.

Listen, I'm a Cam supporter but he played in a one-read-and-run style offense so he's got to demonstrate that he understands how to read coverages, go through progressions, identify blitzes, etc. I'm not saying he can't, I'm just saying he needs to if we wants to be drafted high. I do think too much weight is placed on whether or not a guy played in a pro-style offense in college.

If it was 50-50 then yes.

But it is definitely not 50-50.

to be "most exciting and dynamic franchise", I'd say roughly 20-1 odds.

Lets just see how it plays out.

But if Cam is drafted by us, then I will be 100% behind him. And I will convince myself that he is going to be great. I did it with Jimmy, lol.

How is that when they will never be on the same team?

You never know what's gonna happen in this draft just because some of the 'fans' don't want Newton. Doesn't mean we aren't gonna take him. The last word goes to Hurney and he said QB is "number 1 need" in Carolina.

To me, if the guy is putting in this kind of work now, the bigger question is this - will he continue to put in that kind of work once he's drafted and paid? Good for him for busting it and,according to those who saw the workout, showing that kind of improvement, but is the ultimate goal to get drafted or to become an elite QB? Seems like it should be an easy question, but a lot of guys that age may not realize the difference.

Not a knock on Cam personally, just a general comment re: the danger of this type of scenario.
