Darin Gantt on 99.9

[PantherBrew]

He somewhat surprised me.

He said, in his opinion, that Cam Newton would go #1, however if they traded the pick, it would be because someone else wanted Cam badly, I.e "Washington".

In his mind, he said these are the two most likely scenarios. From, "guys that lose their jobs if they make bad picks", they say that Nick Fairley will not be the Panthers pick a #1, more likely that it is Dareus, but if it probably wouldnt be at #1.

Also, he thought that PP7 is not likely at #1 because Corners dont go @1 and even Deion went #5.

Made no mention of Gabbert.

To sum, if we pick someone at #1, its going to be Cam, but if we trade, all bets are off and anyone is possible.

I swear I remember someone asking Hurney during the JR Presser if they are going to trade the pick, and he responded "We have no plans to trade it away".

If someone cares to refute this, by all means, please do if you can find the video.

he did say it.

people just assume that because luck isn't in the mix, all bets are off.

Good thing Gantt isn't an NFL GM Because with first overall picks like that he would ruin a franchise

So basically Gantt is saying that we'd pick Cam for the hell of it. That makes no sense just pick a guy you're more comfortable with.

It could be a smokescreen, but he legitimately believes that Cam is a real possibility.

No, thats not really what he is saying.

He is saying we are probably gonna take Cam, unless someone makes an nice offer.

unless cam is the real real deal. if the panthers think he is, then most likely he is, regardless of what you think.

You're killing me with the smokescreen responses today teeray

[CatMan72]

You think Gantt's opinion has anything to do with the way he was staring and obsessively smiling at Cam like he wanted to kiss him on the mouth?

5 minutes within 20 feet of him and you'll be doing the same thing.
