guarantee the panthers WILL DRAFT Cam Newton


Recommended Posts

you think the carolina panthers are going to throw a first ever draft party at the stadium with free entry, and free tours of the whole stadium, including the locker rooms and other places the fans dont get to see, and have everybody there to pick somebody other than Cam Newton? They aren't going to trade down but they will get back into the 2nd round somehow that is obvious since hurney has made a draft day trade every year he has been here. the panthers arent setting up this huge,free draft day party on a thursday of the draft to pick marcel or peterson or green or fairley or gabbert. regardless of whether you like the pick or not, CAM NEWTON is going # 1 overall

You're probably right about that, but they're not doing for Newton either. They're probably simply getting with the times and doing the same as just about every other NFL team that has been doing this same type of draft day party for years.

ok so you're saying a stadium full of fans would be disappointed with a draft day trade that gives us 2 first round picks in 2011 and 2012 and a 2nd round pick in 2011? you have got to be kidding yourself.

you are the one kidding yourself if you think ANYBODY, let me reiterate...ANYBODY is going to trade up in this draft to the # 1 spot. if anything, the panthers might trade to get back into the first and mortgage their picks like they did in 2008 when they got stewart and otah,but i dont think that will happen.i do think they will get back into the 2nd round though

Yes.

Might be a good move on our part don't get me wrong, but if there was a huge build up with bands, beer, and excitement flowing through the air just to have Goodell to come to the microphone and say, "There has been a trade"

You will see maybe 25% who are the Haters clap and another 25% who are the Huggers upset bc we didn't go Cam Newton, and the other 50% will be sitting there wondering "how fugging long am I gonna have to sit here before they announce us selecting someone like Prince Amukamara?"

plus, you are probably not going to see alot of draft day trades for future picks if there isnt a new cba in place. just like peter king said,the teams that give away future picks to move up in this draft will do so at their own peril because nobody even knows if there is going to be a draft in 2012 or beyond

    • I think at some point you top out what God gave you.  He can use leverage via his mechanics to maximize what he has and When he pays attention to it the throws are better.    IMO as a layman a lot of it is what kind of ‘headroom’ you have. The guys who are gifted don’t have to use maximum effort to get good results and stay within themselves but they have it in reserve. They can do an arm throw for substantial distance without max effort.    I think what we may be seeing with these ‘lasers’ is a throw that Bryce puts the max effort into and does his mechanics right and has his base right and it works together.    To get to the payoff here, I think his best velocity throws take dall that whereas  a naturally gifted guy doesn’t need to go full effort to get that same velocity. I have said this three or four times over the years and it never gets picked up on but the accuracy is more consistent with an easier motion and max effort can produce less predictable location. It is a baseball pitcher thing but it applies to throwing a pass too. It isn’t that you can’t make an accurate throw with full effort it is just not as reliably accurate to the same degree. Someone said something about his pro day and that is where I saw it too. He took a little extra step on the deep throws. Some call it a hitch but I don’t see it that way because I don’t see it on shorter throws. He does it trying to get distance. I saw that and just wanted no part of it at 1.1 . That is not tne characteristic of a 1.1 passer.  He should have been at best, late first  I had him second day. Of course I am no one and certainly not a pro evaluator, it is just that he WS so easy to suss out. They must have thought they could fix him. Changing a lifelong throwing motion with the footwork tied into it is not fuging easy. Anyone that had decent success with ‘their’ way and tried to change it to get more, can tell you that.     
    • Sounds like a tad bit of what Josh Allen had. He would make throws that made zero sense die to his desire to make a make. Bryce also turns the ball over believing their is an unlimited shot clock in those moments. Sometimes the best play is to reset for the next one. 
    • See, I think one of his biggest issues is he bails too early.  His instinct has been to bail as soon as defenders get behind him and the pocket starts to close in. Taller QBs hang in there for that extra second or two and throw over guys as the pocket collapses in the QBs lap.  BY runs as soon as this starts to happen, which means routes don’t have time to develop and the field gets cut in half as soon as he runs. This last game I saw some signs of him being willing to hang in the pocket when the defense gets behind him, but that has been rare.
