Post your reasons for not wanting Newton or Gabbert

Or just their red flags, whatever.

Because I can.

Newton:

1. Poor accuracy

2. Character issues (liar, thief, family issues)

3. Played in an offense that was more simple than my high school offense

4. Not very smart (simplified offense, having to cheat on testes, not being able to grasp florida offense)

5. Athleticism will not translate well to nfl

6. Runs more than he throws

7. Tired of hearing KT

Gabbert:

1. Did not dominate in college

Your turn!

Yeah, because we need ANOTHER Newton thread. Hell, I've got a picture of him in my sig, and I'm getting sick of it.

But I'll bite...

Or just their red flags, whatever.

Because I can.

Newton:

1. Poor accuracy

No evidence of this in his stats from junior or Div1 college or consistent multi-game footage.

2. Character issues (liar, thief, family issues)

Mostly rumors, or charges that were dismissed, or had nothing to do with choices he made personally, and has no bearing on his ability to perform on an NFL field.

3. Played in an offense that was more simple than my high school offense

Many current NFL QBs came from spread offenses that have had success translating to the pros.

4. Not very smart (simplified offense, having to cheat on testes, not being able to grasp florida offense)

Again more rumor about the cheating. As far as intelligence goes, he scored a 20 on the wonderlic. Dan Marino and Jim Kelly's scored 15 on the test. What does it matter if he can make plays?

5. Athleticism will not translate well to nfl

LOL, yeah, cause his arm strength will be a problem? Or maybe his ability to out run a good many LBs and some corners will not work out for him? JFC...

6. Runs more than he throws

Completely false.

7. Tired of hearing KT

Then stop giving him ammunition with stupid posts like these.

My god, how many f*cking times do I have to say buying a stolen laptop is not actually STEALING.

Gabbert

1. paper champion-looks good in the class room but does none of the things he talks about on the field.

2. Accuracy- He just can't exist in the down the field type offense ron is bring in (15%) with the deep throws.

3. Happy feet- this guy move around the pocket just as much as newton if not more for no reason.

4.Product of hype-Seriously how many of you knew who blaine was before the start of the draft process? what has he done on the field to believe he can lead us anywhere?

5.Character- Believe it or not getting in to violent fights could translate into a team issue as with steve smith.

6.Not that good of a athlete- yes he has a good 40 time but doesn't really translate on the field looks clunky like a robot trying to escape the pass rush(luck does as well).

7. Name- I for one don't want to cheer for a guy name blaine gabbert or yo gabba gabba or gabby or "gabrielle union"

Newton:

Character issues. Has he grown up from earlier mistakes prior to Auburn.

New mechanics. Will all the work with trainer translate quickly

Offense. No idea what new offense is really going to entail so how does he fit.

Gabbert

Accuracy. Also coming from spread offense but was not as accurate as Newton

Blitz performance. Showed shaky peformance being blitz in college will it be worse in pro's

Arm Strength/Deep balls. Will he be able to stretch the field with his arm like it seems like the coaches want.

Might as well be. He knew it was stolen, therefore stolen property in his possession. Maybe he lied about buying it?

completed 66% of his passes

he threw more than he ran

don't know how smart he is....

athleticism does translate well to the QB NFL......but you still gotta be able to make the throws for it to matter.

    • I mean I'd like to add a monster TE as much as anyone else but ultimately what use will that serve with a QB who had 54 passing yards in 4 quarters at one point last season? Defense defense defense.
    • Personally I think he's a nightmare to cover I think linebackers generally aren't fast enough to keep up with him in coverage and cornerbacks don't have the strength to tackle him one-on-one in physically bring them down which would normally lead to a broken tackle or a nasty stiff arm or just bully ball play sure you could find a receiver with comparable speed like Cooper but he's faster than Cooper sure you can find a wide receiver that is the same size but he's probably More powerful than them and a better blocker.  The size speed athleticism package that he is in is completely unique it's easier to say I'd rather have just a big blocker because we've never seen this type of profile before I'm a risk taker I think you would be God blessed if this was there at 19 I think if you can get a guy that's a tight end who immediately becomes the fastest guy on your offense and at the same time that third wide receiver that can stretch and burn defenses over the top that's the perfect what the Panthers need type weapon.
    • I think you're under selling Sadiq. They are two different players in terms of how they win. Loveland is 2 inches taller maybe 5-6 pounds heavier. Comparing his speed to sadiq.. well your comparing a 4.7 guy to a 4.3 guy I'm seeing a guy that can take a bubble screen from the tight end position and turn it into a house call. I'm not saying the guy is a certified home run pick but I don't think there's really a president's for a comparison for this kind of athlete. It's easy to say this doesn't look like Warren or Loveland because we haven't seen guys that fit this profile The closest you might be able to get is Vernon Davis.  He's not as sure far as those guys were but at 19 I think almost everybody is going to have some warts and he's a lottery ticket of could be top 10 in the draft player or could fail I am more of a risk taker I think he fits the athletic profile that could be a homerun, like I said he's almost 40 lb bigger than Cooper and like 4-5 in taller than Cooper so and he's faster. So whatever you think Cooper gives you I think he does that and more. If you want to go with one of the office alignment I can understand that as well but for value as a receiving threat I don't think there's a bigger value at number 19.
