Now that it's almost certain Cam will be the pick, what are your thoughts?

Btw I am not so sure he is our pick. I think a lot of the noise is coming from the media itself.

This was my thinking when I read the title of this thread. I was unaware that Marty Hurney, Rivera, or JR has already held a press conference and announced the Panther's intention of picking Cam with the first pick. I mean, I slack off at work as much as the next person but I do work sometimes. It is possible that the conference was held at some point in this work day while I was actually working but it is doubtful.

Apparently Newton can still tank his interview (as in not understanding the playbook, showing some character issues, etc), if that is the case Green, Mallett, Dareus, or Peterson is the pick...so it's not 100% yet.

Dareus and Green are the leading contenders at this point, followed by Peterson, and then MAYBE Cam...

Nope, it's all Cam at this point unless he does not have a great interview, then I kind of expect it to be Green.

You are not alone. I appreciate your honesty. There are others here that do as well. It'll be interesting to see how they react to having to kiss his ass the next 3-4 years tho. ;)

Haha, it's partly because I am an Oregon Ducks fan, partly because I have this huge gut feeling he will be a bust, and partly because he is kind of a dick.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
