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.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I think the qualification has changed over time though. A deep ball play used to take 4 to 6 seconds for the receiver to get to that spot on the field. Now a receiver can be there in 2.5. That's less time than most QBs have to set and throw. In my mind a deep route takes time to develop. A crossing route and a deep route can't take the same amount of time at full speed. You can have 4 deep balls on the same drive,  almost 5 if you do 5 20 yard throws goal line to goal line. That doesn't even make sense when you say it out loud.

      The sad part is it looks manicured enough that he's aware it's running away from him.  Also, I just wanted to give you some fun loving grief on King Haynes today having a chance to throw a game winning TD, and was wildly errant, and ultimately picked off to end the game.  So happy I won't have to hear anything else about The Golden Calf of Bristol lite ever again watching college football.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By countryboi · Posted

      I just think Panthers believe in Bryce far more than the fans do and he is most likely going to be the QB at least the next two seasons. the real shot of us moving from Bryce is not getting an extension, till then they are going to give him every chance to succeed and I just want to win.
