Owner Jerry Richardson still isn't completely sold on Newton, a source with knowledge of the Panthers' draft plans told CBSSports.com. Still, Richardson will likely defer to his personnel staff, and many of them have met with Newton, and like him.

Interesting bit. Didn't JR meet with Newton today?

Hearing a lot of Green, too.

It makes you wonder. This story was posted tonight, likely after he had already met with Newton. I wonder if it's true. If his source is accurate, it sounds like JR doesn't trust Newton, but is willing to let Hurney make the final decision.

Maybe you're speculating a little bit too much.

i don't see how that guy could have already gotten information on newton's visit with JR when more than likely it was newton with JR and maybe hurney & rivera...why would anyone else be in the meeting besides those 3 guys?!?

and you know those aren't his sources.

again, how would anyone know how JR feels? he's not talking to anyone other than hurney and rivera and not a single one of them would be talking to alleged sources about this stuff

Hurney isn't stupid enough to leak any legitimate information on who we will draft. Everything(pro Newton and anti Newton) is completely speculative and nothing more.

I'm going to post that word for word into every thread on the subject from now on.

      His PPG actually did go up a little in Colorado. We will see. I still sort of believe we saw pretty close to the peak of his abilities last year. Not wishing him ill or trashing him in any way. Just tend to believe we did sell high and correctly so.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      Well, other teams also had an offseason. I honestly agree with him. Right now I have way more faith in Coker ascending then I do XL. I think it's the TE/WR group dragging us down. Plus he does mention that the list was made with WR's very much valued more than RB's and TE's(I understand the thought process). In that context, we have a very aging AT, two "wait and see" second year players(one leaning bust) and a rookie.  I really think this is a very fair rating, on paper and in the offseason. Quite frankly, aside from the aforementioned and aging AT, this is a bunch of guys still trying to prove themselves.  Then when you go to TE, it's easily a bottom 3-4 unit on paper. That is probably being extremely generous.  RB is where we make our hay. Probably a top 5-10 unit. But....he mentions early in the article that he doesn't value the RB units as much.  So, really, it's the weighting of the skill positions that is what really fugs us.
