Denver Post on Cam and AJ

The Denver Post's Mike Klis is "hearing" that Georgia WR A.J. Green has joined Cam Newton as a candidate to go No. 1 overall to the Panthers.

Carolina has already been reported as "enamored" with Green, so this hardly comes as shocking news. On the other hand, the Denver Post acknowledges that the Panthers' actions indicate they have "created the most expensive, time-consuming smoke screen in recent draft history" if Newton isn't the pick.

So it's all down to Cam vs. AJ.

Also, from rotoworld:

Steve Smith says he only decided to put his house up for sale when his wife became pregnant.

The house has been listed since June, and in this economy it's no surprise it hasn't sold. He'd already dropped the price from $2.9 million to $2.3 million. Reports of Smith's home sale sparked speculation that he was planning to play elsewhere in 2011. The 32-year-old could still be sent packing if the Panthers find a viable trade offer, probably after the draft.

The words "trading down", and "Panthers drafting AJ green" shouldn't be used in the same sentence. Believing he'll still be there in such event is a dream at best.

How many wins did Palmer manage to get throwing to Chad and Owens? Yet he's going to win here throwing to Green...

I do not understand why anyone believes Palmer would help us. How much does he have left? What are we going to do when he's done, get another end of the road QB for a 1-2 year lease?

I'm with you. I don't understand the infatuation with Palmer.

AJ Green is the pick only if the Panther trade down w/ the Bengals and get Palmer in the deal.....

They say that cannot happen until the CBA is in place, but let me help you out with a theory of mine that I have not thought through yet. What if Cincinnati trades with us, moving from #4 to #1. They do so for their first round pick in 2012, with the understanding that, after a CBA is in place, they trade the pick back to Cincinnati for Palmer, pending reworking his contract and passing a physical.

Not saying I would do this, but I wonder....

Not to mention Palmer is not a leader and lacks toughness. Anyone who's under contract to make 11 mill next year and would rather "retire" (aka QUIT) than play football is not someone I would make the face of my business.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.

      I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
