PFW: Carolina seeks second-round pick By Nolan Nawrocki

[pantherfan81]

Although Panthers GM Marty Hurney has remained steadfast expressing interest in a quarterback, the way we hear it, the Panthers' decision at the top of the draft will come down to three players — Alabama DT Marcell Dareus, Georgia WR A.J. Green and LSU CB Patrick Peterson.

"Marty wants everyone to believe he is taking a quarterback," said one rival executive. "He would love to get his second-rounder back (traded to the Patriots last year to land Armanti Edwards in the third round). Marty does not like taking quarterbacks in the first round out of principle — there is too much boom or bust. Look at his history — he has been there (nine) years, he has never had a great (quarterback), and he has never done it."

"The owner (Jerry Richardson) wants clean," said an inside source. "He struggled taking Julius Peppers because of (rumored) issues."

times are different...we can no longer take the safe route marty and jerry know this...this article is complete speculation

How would a rival NFL executive know what Hurney is thinking, unless Hurney told him?

I'm still skeptical about Hurney pulling the trigger on Cam, but that's some pretty flimsy evidence Nawrocki is putting out there.

kind of like every single article talking about the draft

Was the principal of no QB i the first his or John Fox? This exec seems to be going off the way things were not the way things are now. This could all be a ruse but I just don't see the point. You hold all the cards..you don't need to play games to get your guy.

[Darth Urious]

the only people that will call this speculation are the same people that won't say the same about articles suggesting we are picking Cam Newton...

[DaCityKats]

^^^^ exactly. hurn-dog will not show his cards.

[thefuzz]

The more hype from the Panthers FO that comes out about Cam, the less likely I think it is that we take him.

Posturing for a trade back, if I had to guess.

Yeah, Hurney is awesome at draft poker...not!
