the other alternative is we don't consider it a big deal that it's true and Hurney doesn't want to admit to the world that it is because that rapes Cam's draft stock for other teams. We did draft Clausen despite nearly identical complaints about him (relating to personality & leadership).

I doubt that the Cam complaints are all legit but there is probably some truth in there some place, just like there was with Clausen.

Pretty much :thumbsup:

I gotta laugh at folks thinking Hurney would openly acknowledge concerns he had about Newton with the number one pick in play. Hurney could privately think "I wouldn't touch this kid with a ten foot pole" but would still speak glowingly when asked.

Could it be they honestly love Newton? Sure, but thinking you're gonna know that from a radio interview is pretty naive.

As to his comments about Nawrocki, also not a surprise. Said many times that pro teams don't listen to media scouts (nor should they).

I laugh at the people who think he would just blatantly lie as oppose to passing on comment which wouldn't effect Cam Newtons stock one way or the other.

Sorry Nawrocki got put in his place Scot. You worked so hard too.

None of their backgrounds begin to compete with Cam's, so no.

That's highly selective. Sounds more like a witchhunt then having any real issues with people's character.

I would put them all in the same boat. I'd also take them all on the Panthers.

You seriously think a GM for a pro team wouldn't lie when there's a number one pick at stake?

Really? :nonod:

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.

      Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
