More Fun Cam Newton Stuff

Only one negative Newton thread allowed at a time or else it'll throw off the 20-1 ratio!!!!!!!!

Right, the vast majority of these threads have been started by the anti-Cam crowd. It all started with the media only workout that you and Mr. Scot claimed would turn every GM and scout against him. How's that working out for you?

Never said that, I can't speak for him but what I said was that scouts and GMs had already reported that it rubbed them the wrong way.

It's also come out in many scouting reports now that he is a "Me first" guy and they cite the media workout as a reason for that.

It didn't do him any favors

Cam lovers have their fair share of over posting and re-posting pro-Cam articles.

It's just the way it is.

Hard to see without a neutral perspective, I know.

Form my neutral perspective however the anti-Cam's as you call them, seem to have more basis for their argument. Pro cam people's line is along the lines of "just take a chance!" or something to do with race and I have yet to see anyone, anywhere say they would not draft Cam becasue he is black.

You can even see it in the people responding in this article. Ultimately that is what Cam is though, a chance so I suppose there isn't a lot of material there.

Well I haven't started a single thread about Cam Newton, but I sure as hell have answered a lot of threads that were designed to make him look bad.

There have been probably 5 threads about how we shouldn't draft him because he wants to get paid to play football. Imagine a pro football player wanting to get paid...that's just crazy.:rolleyes:

Just because I am neutral doesn't mean I don't have a perspective.

There are a few Cam lovers who actually bring good, supporting evidence. I have read a few good pro-Cam threads...wish there were more.

Why bother?

We've been over the FACTUAL components of Newton beyond any reasonable discussion. In every case, either Mr. Scot, TRD, or mav, and a few others go all out with every internet forum tactic to discredit the facts, portray them negatively, or simply ignore them.

Newton's stock has skyrocketed since Luck announced his decision to stay in school. Without fail, after every test of Cam's ability, his draft stock shot up. The haters lost the the argument that he's not worthy of consideration as #1 overall, they are just in denial about it.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
