:confused: How do you figure this? Even the people who want Newton say he isn't a starting QB immediately

How do you figure Newton is not a starting QB immediately? Or at the very least better than our current options? Who are "the people" who say he isn't? People here?

The people here, people who do mocks, people on NFL network, ESPN, ect. You are the first I have seen to say he is. And until he takes a snap in the NFL, I wouldn't call him better than our current options.

OK. Remind me, who are our current options?

Yeah.

And it's not like rookie QBs have never hit the ground running in the NFL -there've been plenty.

I never said they didn't or that Newton won't. But right now you think he will be better. He could, or he could play as bad as Clausen. Until he actually plays, there is no prove to say he will be better than who we have.

BTW still haven't answered my question. How do you figure Newton is an immediate starting QB?

If Newton is drafted by the Panthers, he'll be our starting QB.

I'd rather have Mallett at #1 than Fairley. Just sayin'.

[R0CKnR0LLA]

How many of you have actually watched Mallet, Gabbert and Newton play in college. Just wondering...

[JawnyBlaze]

I watched a bit of Mallett and Newton, not Gabbert though. He was and still is a nobody as far as I'm concerned.

I have watched all the QB's except Gabbert....

[sml1950]

The bonus to taking Dareus, is that we are undoubtably causing a collective SOB in the Denver war room in getting their guy first. Sorry Foxy.

[Millions]

Watched Arkansas and Auburn only saw one Gabbert game in 09...

[firstdayfan]

Shouldn't "trade down" be an option? Or has that dream died?

If Newton is drafted by the Panthers, he'll be our starting QB.

And what tells you this? Are you just going with "it can't be worse than last year"?

[jtnc]

No he won't, he needs to sit on the bench for a year. While a vet like Palmer or Mcnabb teaches him everything.
