If we draft him, I would like to see us go after Kerry Collins as both a serviceable vet and a mentor for Cam. Collins has had a very good career despite the debacle he had while he was here. I think there are several aspects on and off the field that Collins could use to mentor newton.

Perhaps that is what they were going for in tennessee with young but suspect there were other things going on. Just a thought

Cam Newton is a great athelete and Cam Newton has a big arm but does that make him a franchise QB? I wish it was that easy to use that criteria by itself to make the decsion to draft him but its not. A franchise qb has to be the ultimate student of the position and have a burning to desire to win.

He has to be a leader and have mental toughness.He has to be mature enough not to let big money and the temptations that go with it change his priorities of being a student of the position.

I am not saying to draft him or not but rather evaluate him on something other than his physcial attributes.

We want a guy with all those attributes.Think about guys that did not have the intandibles and failed their teams and fans.A few names come to mind:

Kerry Collins (at Carolina),J Russell,Mike Vick(Atlanta version)Vince Young.Matt Leinart,Ryan Leaf just to name a few.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
