Cam Newton, QB, AuburnFrom the day he landed on the Big Board for the first time, I've said that Newton's physical skills and underrated ability as a passer could lead him all the way to the top of the draft. In Buffalo, what you have is an ideal foundation for his career. The Bills can keep Ryan Fitzpatrick around and develop Newton at a slower pace. But given Newton's total package of skills and size, and his proven ability as a guy who can adapt, deal with adversity and win, he represents a real possibility to land in the top five.

Oh and a special i told you so to Mr. Scot

So hes good enough to go three but not first. That doesn't make much sense considering the same situation could play out with Clausen as with Fitzpatrick. Not to mention I'd trust Carolinas coaching over the Bill's any day.

Excately!! If the Bills are in need of a QB and should take Cam at #3 then HELLO!!!!!! The Panthers have, if not, a bigger need at QB and there is not much difference between #1 and #3, escp in this draft.

Just because Kiper said it doesn't mean it is going to happen...

i.e. Jimmy Clausen

I know, but if Cam is moving that damn fast up the draft board just after an informal media workout, then some team will feel all tinglely in their jollies where the Panthers could wind up benefiting from it. Remember, once Luck stayed in school this QB class lost it's only bonafied top 3 QB choice. Now it appears one is emerging and what seemingly was a slim-to-none prospect in regards to trading down, now seems to have a little steam to it.

I hope Cam has a moster combine. If so, the team that could benefit the most is us!

So Cam fans, can Kiper be trusted or not? He was Jimmy Clausen's number one fan, something I'm sure you'd be pointing out if he said that Newton would, say, fall out of the first round and be available in the second.

Two diffrences between clausen and newton..Clausen was a loser in college and at best most likely be a good back-up.Cam's a winner and i don't this his "personality" will cause his stock to slide. Number two,Who do you think Has more upside clausen coming out or Newton?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
