If we Pick Cam Newton Will You...

If we draft him, he will become my new favorite Panther, and I will hope against hope that everything negative I've heard about him is wrong, and everything positive is true. And I'd really look forward to him being fully integrated into our system and executing the play action pass leveraging our stellar running game, and rolling out and heaving long touchdown passes with an arm strength we've not had in probably over a decade.

That said, I'd still rather we don't draft him.

honestly, I'm really not excited for next season at all, regardless of who we take.

What is there to look forward to?

The worst team in the NFL drafting a qb that won't contribute his first year?

If we don't take a QB then watching the revamped D causing 3 and outs only to have the offense punt in 3 plays again?

Watching clausen flail around behind the o-line?

the hardest schedule in the league with a rookie head coach with limited time with his players before the season starts due to the CBA bullpoo?

Next year is going to suck regardless of who we pick guys.

Option #2 and #3 (sorry, neither fit by themselves). I will complain initially (until camp or whenever the season starts. I will support him and hope he does well after that. If he stinks, then yeah, I'll complain until he's run out of town.

I will hate the pick. He is a bust just waiting for his chance to blow up and I hope its not this team he does it on.

I'm pretty sure you didn't even want the great Andrew Luck..so you are pretty hard to please anyways.

I will hold him to a much higher standard than any of our QBs ever before because I dont like him.

...you are aware if we take him it will be with the number one pick in the draft right?

That's usually a good reason to hold a QB to a high standard, even moreso than a second rounder or an undrafted free agent.

    • I've been screaming for DE for months. Forbidden topic indeed. 
    • Great post! Now that I think on it, I think D line might be our biggest need. We are one player away from having a potential disastrous defensive line. Brown and Wharton struggled last year and Wharton has really only been a rotational player that specializes in one thing. Can we count on him being a full time starter? Jackson is unproven. Do you want a starting defensive line of Wharton, Brown and Jackson? I don’t want to risk it.   I honestly don’t think linebacker is that big of a need. If Rozeboom ends up coming back then why get a LB?   games are won in the trenches and I would honestly prefer us drafting an offensive or defensive linemen over any other position in the first. The prospect you mentioned seems like a good prospect who has had some good production as well. Only problem is defensive line is a position that can take time for a player to develop. Will whoever we draft be ready this season ? 
    • Have they though? I'll give you KC with Kelce, but c'mon, they weren't winning those SB's because they had a great TE, it was a combination of Mahomes and some great defenses.  Will also give you the 49ers and Ravens with Kittle and Andrews, but even then, both have missed time with injuries the last few years. After those 3 teams, the best teams of the last 2-3 years have not had elite TEs The Eagles had Goedert, he's good, not great. The Bills have also had good but not great TE's The Rams have had average TEs and still consistently run 2 and 3 TE sets with them and still win. The Bucs have been winning the South without a great TE The Lions' Laporta is more a name than a highly productive TE. The Texans have had a serviceable TE in Shultz, but nothing too amazing. Some of the best TE's in the league the last few years have been on some of the worst teams.  McBride, Bowers, Warren, Njoku, even Pitts this past year. A true elite TE is absolutely a weapon in today's game, but I think the best teams use that money elsewhere and find serviceable TE play, usually through a committee where each TE brings something else to the table.
