NFL.com Analyst's Mock Draft below.

http://www.nfl.com/draft/story/09000d5d81e9431a/article/mock-draft-panthers-pull-surprise-by-taking-newton-no-1?module=HP_cp2

1. Carolina Panthers

Cam Newton, QB, Auburn

The "Force Majeure" for college football in 2010 is now the hotly debated first overall pick in 2011.

2. Denver Broncos

Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn

The best defender for the national champs gives new defensive-oriented coach John Fox a nice start in Denver.

3. Buffalo Bills

Da'Quan Bowers, DE, Clemson

Might have been hoping that Newton would still be available, but good pass rushers are always welcomed.

4. Cincinnati Bengals

A.J. Green, WR, Georgia

The best wide receiver in the draft could entice Carson Palmer to stick around for awhile.

5. Arizona Cardinals

Blaine Gabbert, QB, Missouri

Will need the Larry Fitzgerald stamp of approval, but many believe this young man is the class of the QBs in this draft.

6. Cleveland Browns

Robert Quinn, DE/OLB, North Carolina

New regime in Cleveland, and new defensive coordinator Dick Jauron gets another building block.

7. San Francisco 49ers

Patrick Peterson, CB, LSU

He has size, speed, range, and can return kicks.

8. Tennessee Titans

Marcell Dareus, DT, Alabama

Many think he is the equal of Fairley, maybe better.

9. Dallas Cowboys

Anthony Castanzo, OT, Boston College

Offensive line is a place Dallas is continuing to try to fortify.

10. Washington Redskins

Von Miller, OLB, Texas A&M

Showed at the Senior Bowl and combine that he can do it all.

Im so sick of seeing/hearing/reading that the Panthers are going to take Newton first overall. Too many quality selections to take a project number 1. If I had to choose Revis vs. Manning, I'd take Manning... but if I had to choose Revis over Russell, I'd take Revis.

where was russell drafted? where was revis drafted? apperently just about everybody in the NFL would have taken Russell over Revis at the time of the draft

I'll pull a surprise my murdering the next thing I see if that happens on draft day.

y? hes the best QB. He can scramble too which is obviously better than clausen sitting in the pocket for 20 seconds and not doing poo.

If i were to be able to interpreted this ill-advised post correctly, you think Newton is the best Quarterback? :dupe:

He couldn't even hit receivers being covered by there shadows at the combine... he is a bust waiting to happen.

Can't wait until Freddie McFootball releases his Mock Draft so we get another pointless mock draft thread.

I mean think about this. It's like a Pro-Newton guy will ask a Homeless Guy on the street and if that Homeless Guy says Fig Newton, we'll get a thread "HOMELESS GUY HAS THE PANTHERS TAKING CAM "FIG" NEWTON #1 OVERALL"

Ridiculous is it not?

That's right...keep comparing Russell to Newton. Pretty much ever analysts and scout out there knows that is a bogus comparison, since Russell showed up at the combine overweight and unmotivated, and Newton showed up in shape and ready to compete but whatever.

Yes, because throwing to different random Receivers you've never thrown to before is entirely on the QB for performance.

Do you realize that many QBs aren't throwing at the combine because there is a growing thought that it isn't a fair test?

Wait...I thought you guys keep claiming the media is against Cam...:rolleyes:

Hmm. Maybe you should read up in the other threads how we now have two stories about his Combine interviews and one is being called out as a fraud (that would be the one in the negative)?

Peterson, Dareus, Green, Fairley, Bowers, Quinn or even Gabbert would be better choices than Newton imo.

      I mean, I think you're being a little hyperbolic with the last statement, but point taken.

      Pass rush was the biggest issue in tonight’s game, and we were tied for 28th in sacks this season. That is a major area of need that has to get addressed this offseason. I just don’t see a path where there’s a game changing QB you can bring in with where we are drafting and quality of veterans that will be available. We certainly can do better than Dalton as a backup, and should ideally have a developmental guy  (perhaps a day 3 pick this year). We have bryce for one more year on a reasonable contract and then I think 2027 is the year that you reset that position (unless he massively improves).

      Agreed, honestly basically bringing this group back as a healthy unit would be alright.  Brady Christensen should be resigned to a very reasonable deal with him recovering from the Achilles.  Atleast we're alright at 4 of our 5 spots with Lewis, Mays, Hunt, and Moton, Nijman was decent.  While if we can snag a deal on someone, take a stab, however our resources need to go to Linebacker, Pass Rush and a real option outside Tmac (coker is amazing, but if we can get someone who isnt braindead opposite Tmac, we can fully unleash Coker AND Tmacs full potential, cant move him into the slot if racoon boy is out there licking doorknobs).
