CBS Sports: Panthers continue march towards Newton

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.

    • The last 8 weeks, Nix had 2,022 yards, 21 TDs, 6 INTs on 70% completions While Bryce's last 8 games he had 1,709 yards, 12 TDs (albeit adding 5 more rushing), 3 INTs on 61% completions. I'm not going to pretend I watched those Broncos games to know exactly how Nix actually looked, but in retrospect, his statistics were better.  Hell, in just his final 8 games, Nix has only 5 less TD passes than Bryce has in his 30 game (28 starts) career. And you said he had better WRs than Bryce did, but I'm not even sure that's even true either. Sutton and Thielen might be completely different types of WRs, but I'd say they are pretty equal on effectiveness if not even a slight edge to Thielen (63.6 YPG for Sutton to 61.5 for Thielen).  Then XL and Coker vs Marvin Mims and Devaughn Vale, again, at worst a push, if not lean in our favor there too. Why is it so hard for some Panthers fans to just objectively look at our team/Bryce and be honest with themselves. ? He was significantly improved the final two months of the season from his first season and a half.  But he was still a below average QB during that time, even if he had a few good throws and clutch moments.
    • The Canes physically dominated 2 of the top 16 teams in the league this calendar month. If you truly believe Florida is just that much more physical than us, then what does that say about the rest of the league? Why didn't they go 82-0 this year, if they are orders of magnitude better than every other team?
