The Carolina Panthers are considering using the No. 1 overall pick in the April draft on the quarterback. Newton is under the microscope. But there’s one player in the league who absolutely wouldn’t take Newton to start the draft.

Paul Schwartz of the New York Post tracked down what New York Giants defensive end Justin Tuck had to say at MIT last week where he appeared for the Sloan Spots Analytics Conference. Let’s just say Tuck doesn’t have Newton atop his own personal draft board.

“Would I take him at No. 1? Absolutely not," Tuck said. “In this league, the athletic quarterbacks don't last long.

"It's the quarterbacks (like Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Drew Brees) that can sit in the pocket and take a picture of whatever defense we're in and know in 0.3 seconds that a hot slant is going to be open. … It's those guys that (teams) are looking for, and I don't think Cam is that player yet. If he comes into the league doing what he did in college, he won't be in this league for very long."

Good golly what a hater!

      I would say that seems like an odd comment from Morgan, but at the same time it's almost impossible to find a college QB declaring for the draft to have less physical ability than BY so you can assume almost anyone you bring in would be your go to QB sneak/designed run guy.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.
