Didnt say private workout. Newton was the first private meeting JR had with a prospect. JR hasn't had a private meeting with anyone else yet. Things can change between now and draft time, but this is the way it looks atm.

And there's a lot of time yet.

The only thing certain right now is "the process".

Anything else is just speculation.

I'm speculating right now, but isn't it odd this comes out days before the Bills say they think Cam is their franchise QB?

All I'm saying is if teams think we weren't at all interested in Cam then it would hurt the trade value of the first pick.

I usually trust Schefter and he probably does have legit sources telling him that, but you gotta take it with a grain of salt. At this point I don't think anyone knows who will be drafted #1 overall, including the Panthers.

80-90% of rumors, speculation, and reports on who the Panthers have been leaning towards from credible journalists have been toward Cam Newton since Day 1. This shouldn't surprise anyone. He's been the frontrunner all along. Did you guys ever HONESTLY think we were going to draft Gabbert/Fairley/Peterson/Dareus? None of those are worth #1 picks. #1 picks are franchise changers and you don't find that in defensive tackles, cornerbacks, and mediocre Big 12 quarterbacks.

So everyone believes Schefter with the playbook test story but not this one huh?

It is funny so many people want to throw out the possibility that we have already decided on him because there are still more steps we have to take... SMH...

If they were moved by Cam so much compared to what they saw in the other draft picks, then they may have decided that was all they needed to see.

Shefter is most def one of the best NFL beat guys there is, but I do believe he is an ESPN yo-boy.

only because a broken clock is right at least twice a day and he has no legit competition...

although if we go Cam, great.

      New Sunday Ticket pricing option available

      I don't have a dog in this fight (I use an antenna and almost never miss the game), but I don't read tukafan21's post as defending the corporation. He just laid out the math.

      Because it's not that bad, it is literally saving people money if they don't live near the team they root for and are able to get them on local TV every week. Do I wish it was cheaper? Sure, of course. But I can also objectively look at it and say it's saving me money compared to needing to go watch it at a bar ever weekend.   And before anyone says to just stream it, I did it for a while once Covid hit, partially because we were so bad so I didn't care about the problems with it, but it was just awful.  To begin with, sometimes they just flat out didn't work, sometimes the quality sucked, sometimes it would just buffer every 30 seconds and be nearly unwatchable. The $450 this costs for the season is a significantly better deal than the $180 I have to spend to watch Wrexham matches for the season.  That pass, you have to sign up for an individual team and you only get their games (and not even all of them sometimes).  At least with Sunday Ticket, you get every single non national or local game, which again, is amazing for fantasy football junkies.

      I honestly don't think that was as true as most believed. Cam was a very efficient passer in Norv's system and again in his year in NE. I think we hurt him in his development and as an overall QB trying to tailor TOO much to his unique talents. The read option should've always remained a staple, but after year two the passing game should've evolved into a more typical modern day NFL passing offense vs. an obsession with chunk play deep ball setups.
