I'm trying to get myself excited about taking Newton #1 overall

I'm comparing people. When people voted for Obama they "Hoped" for change, instead they got 4 more years of Bush.

People "Hope" for change with Newton. Instead they will get more Clausen.

Makes sense now? If not... then you must of voted for Obama.

So us not being in a depression is a bad thing. Or maybe it's hard to clean up the big retarted mess cause by W you think???? It might take a little longer to clean up 8 years of DUMBASS. I'm sorry if you can't see that.

Clearly you dunno Jack about economics. Obama does nothing for recovery. Driving us into reccession is one way I guess.

Most Newton nut hangers want Newton for 3 basic reason. 1) He was great in college 2) They really want QB #1 overall, don't really care who 3) They go with majority

Fact: Newton is terrible at reading defenses. He will not run away from anyone. You know who is terrible at reading defenses and cannot run away from anyone? Jimmy Clausen! Hurney drafted more than 20 QBs sense he took Panthers GM job... Not a single QB he drafted was any good. People "Hope" Newton will be a beast, reality points in different direction.

Can we call for an official ruling on the word fact? I mean I see a lot of people on this forum placing it out there, but usually they are talking out their a hole.

You clearly don't know about economics. It takes more then 3 years to fixed 8 years of reckless spending wallstreet greed and a collapsing housing market and automotive industry. Not to mention fixing a corrupt health care system while trying to change our dependence on dependence on foreign oil. Wow you must live in Never Never land. Sorry he couldn't get it done for you faster.

I want to see how Newton will handle getting his but handed to him.

Not trying to be negative here, but every QB in the NFL has his butt handed to him at some point. They all experience frustration, losing, and getting smashed in the mouth.

I don't see him handling it very well.

In fact, it kind of irks me to see him in interviews. Did you see his face light up when Deion Sanders said he is the likely #1 pick? He looked like he just hit the jackpot. That's not the face of somebody who looks like he wants to be the best, but rather somebody who wants to cash a check.

For thing to be accomplished you actually have initiate something first. I'll just go stop here and I'll accept the fact you know more about economy.

Simple economy (get a pen and paper for this)

It takes 7 years for a single person to recover from bankruptcy.

Depression = a Country going Bankrupt (which was almost our reality)

Get the point?

No, I didn't see it. But how can you denigrate someone for showing emotion because they might be the number 1 pick?

These guys dream about this all their lives. While we are arguing on a message board, they are working their butts off to realize a dream.

What do you want him to do? Would you prefer that he acts like he doesn't give a rip?

I just don't get it. Why is it that this one prospect cannot do anything without people assuming his intentions are bad?

    • 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.
    • When it comes to evaluating talent, the equation is actually pretty simple. If you're elite in both the measurable traits (size, speed, strength) and the mental side (IQ, instincts), you're looking at a Hall of Fame trajectory—assuming injuries don't derail you. If you're elite in one area but just decent in the other, you can still carve out a Pro Bowl career. Decent in both? That's your typical NFL starter. But here's where it gets tricky—and where a lot of athletes, especially the ones who dominate practices, find their ceiling. If you're not a starter and you don't excel on special teams, you won't last in this league. The roster math is unforgiving. That "what if" game has been playing out in Carolina for a while now, especially at wide receiver. You've got guys who light it up in practice—everything looks smooth, natural, effortless. But when the lights come on and the defense throws a look they haven't seen on tape, the processing slows down. The game speeds up. And when they have to think instead of just react, they crumble. That's the danger. Put a player like that on the field—any position, really—and expect him to process on the fly, and you're setting him up to fail. Now factor in that he was a top-10 pick, not some late-round flier or UDFA. A franchise invested everything in him. They moved pieces around, changed coaching, changed systems—tried everything to help him succeed. But here's the reality check: if he's out there, remember that the guys lining up across from him are also getting paid millions. And their job is to find that weakness and exploit it every single snap.
    • I think he'd make a good QB spy role in those mobile QB games, like Chicago. Just send him at Caleb every play.
