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:

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.
    • Start posting in threads in the other forums instead of just creating threads. No one comes over here so you aren't starting conversations.  Get your ass up to 100 posts. It's not that hard. Don't create 100 posts. Contribute to conversations. 
    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
