Article That I Believe May Be Connected To Cam Chatter Yesterday *Theory*

According to sources close to Draft Headquarters, the Carolina Panthers have one name in mind that they are hoping to use the first overall draft choice on in the 2011 NFL Draft. That name is Auburn quarterback Cam Newton.

From what we have been told, the Panthers are very high on the Heisman Trophy and National Championship-winning quarterback from the Tigers. The Panthers secretly are “hoping to see Cam do well this offseason,” as to earn the support of the fan base to take Newton with the first pick.

Arguably the most high-potential, high-risk player in this year’s draft, Newton has the type of talent that just doesn’t come around every year. With a need for a face of the franchise (or “entertainer and icon”) as well as the upside and potential of incumbent starter Jimmy Clausen not looking so bright, Cam has become the one player the Panthers have turned their attention to.

"At this point, no player has proven that they are worth the first overall pick. However, the Carolina Panthers are hoping that Cam Newton can prove that he is worthy of the pick."

In one year, Newton won the National Championship with a "mediocre cast at Auburn," as well as came back from 21-points down against an Alabama team that is filled to the brim with future NFL stars. In 2010, Newton threw for 2,854 yards, 30 touchdowns, and just seven interceptions with a 66% completion percentage. Add in that he rushed for 1,473 yards and 20 touchdowns, and according to a long-time NFL scout, "this kid is special." -Shawn Zobel

Yesterday's Tweets:

The more people I talk to in the league, the more I get the feeling that #Auburn QB Cam Newton ends up going first overall...-Wes Bunting
A lot of talk surrounding Cameron Newton going First Overall in #nfldraft to the #Panthers. I've been preaching that since January. #NFL -Ryan Lownes
I believe the #Panthers will take Cam Newton or Blaine Gabbert after hearing they were down on Fairley. They do like Bowers, but injury ?'s. - Chris Steuber
Just a thought is all. I'd like to know his source.

I just had a thought maybe it's Gantt lol

It's a humorous figure of speech writers use sometimes. Essentially it means "this is my opinion" or "what I'm getting from what I hear/read in the press".

It'd be like me saying "a source close to Mr. Scot has reported..."

Would make sense. There was an abnormal amount of chatter yesterday. All quite today though.

And I have to say it bc i have all day........ smokescreen :willy_nilly: :willy_nilly:

Its obvious that these misleading information was purposely put out by Hurney. It kills me that any sane person can really believe that Carolina would draft Cam Newton.

      Surprise! Kon looks really bad!

      Don't have to be miss cleo. His weakness are length, athleticism, creating his own shot, defense, finishing at the rim,  Strengths - shooting and IQ.   Likely won't work as non athletic shooters don't typically work.

      By Mr Mojo Risin · Posted

      I live in Indiana and took a trip that weekend to watch my two friend's teams play (Chiefs and Vikings) IN Minnesota when they were playing at a college field, I think TCF? Anyways, our plan was to watch the game (noon game) then do some shopping at the Mall of America, I wasn't planning on watching the Panthers play Seattle since I was out sight seeing and walking around after the noon game had ended. By the time we were walking back into the Mall the Panthers were down by 2 scores in the 4th or going into the 4th and we were all thirsty from walking around for 2.5 hours after the Vikings game so we decided to postpone shopping until after we ate. We found this nice little sports bar inside the mall that had the game on. Man, I'm so glad we skipped shopping because that was probably the most excited I've been in some time for a win. Beating Seattle in 2015 felt like the "monkey off the back" sort of feeling and I knew we had finally arrived as a team. The entire bar erupted when Cam hit Olsen for that walk off TD. Literally one of the greatest moments of my life. My friend wasn't so happy though lol, by the time the Panthers game ended ALL of the stores inside the mall had closed and he wasn't able to get any souvenirs. It was his first time watching a Vikings game live and making a trip like that so he was legit upset lol. I on the other hand couldn't have been happier.
