Jim Corbett of USA Today reports that Missouri quarterback Blaine Gabbert is expected to take a pass on all throwing drills at the NFL Scouting Combine later this week.

Gabbert’s competition to be the first signal caller drafted, Cam Newton of Auburn, will be making a game-time decision.

PFT has confirmed that Nevada’s Colin Kaepernick will participate in full. Washington’s Jake Locker will join him. Christian Ponder of Florida State said in January that he doesn’t plan to throw.

Ryan Mallett of Arkansas presumably will throw, but he’s got bigger things to worry about.

Things could change but this is how it's going so far.

UPDATE: Cam will fully participate in all workouts.

NFL Network now reporting Cam Newton will "fully participate" in 2011 NFL Scouting Combine. Wants to be "transparent."

Auburn QB Cam Newton said tonight at Davey O'Brien Award ceremony that he will be a full participant at this week's combine. Good move. - Schefter Tweet

This move might cost Gabbert a chance at being the 1st pick. He needs too show off his arm. Good move by Cam showing his willingness too improve and do what the teams want too see.

I prefer Cam anyway... but that being said. When having to chose between two players of somewhat equal value, and one was willing to compete and put himself out there vs a guy who choses to play it safe and sit out.......... I take the guy who chose to go out there any day of the week.

      A lookback at Morgan's first draft

      A 12 year old playing madden can draft better than anyone the panthers have had under David Tepper

      A lookback at Morgan's first draft

      Throw in the fact that you have to overpay free agents to come here.  Everyone wants to win--or at least have a decent chance at winning. This followed the Bryce Young trade up draft.  That is the draft that crippled an already crippled franchise.   They moved up to #1 and paid the king's ransom only to admit that they weren't sure who they were going to draft--then they picked the wrong guy....amazing incompetence. Now let's take a look at the AT trade--we basically got some future mid round draft capital.  Minnesota has a QB on their roster who reads quickly, is accurate, and is only 24.  (Brosmer).  Minnesota is keeping him on the roster because on the PS, they would lose him.  Is he the answer if we traded AT for him?  Maybe not, but there is potential--as much potential as you will find on day 3 of the draft.  He would be, at worst, the best backup QB on the roster.  Now, did we give Dalton a ton because he has a good relationship with Young?  What if Young does not work out?   Then you have 2 mistakes and no QB. I dunno--I believe in competition, and I believe there should always be efforts to improve the roster--are we trying to make ourselves not look inept?  With Baker and Darnold leaving Charlotte for successful turnarounds, are we capable of having a good QB?   Cam was natural ability and he had the Alpha gene, and we drove him into the ground.

      When he looks like trash this week against the Cardinals what's going to be the excuse?
