CSR: Casting aspersions: The overly critical evaluation of Cam Newton

Another really good read. I am assuming that since Cam is now a Panther it is appropriate to post positive articles about him :prrr:

Immediately following the draft I spoke with a beat writer covering an AFC team. I asked him what his opinion was of Cam Newton to try and get an opinion from outside our market, he said to me:

"James, let me put it this way. When Jimmy Clausen was drafted in 2010 he was passed on forty-seven times, when Brady Quinn was taken in 2007 twenty teams, many of whom needed quarterbacks didn't want him. If the Panthers passed on Cam Newton he wouldn't have made it out of the top five... that should tell you something"

My name is Cameron, and to know that our franchise QB's name is Cameron, that is enough for me. I'm satisfied, but I do think he's not black enough. I would at least like him 2 inches taller and with a 3.9 40 time. But other than that, I'm happy. And we all know KT is happy.

:sarcasm:

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
