Just don't make dumb observations then try and draw a real conclusion from them.

"Yep, the grass looks green today, looks like it's happy that Cam Newton is playing on it. Everybody and everything loves Cam, Fact"

Use your brain and try and add some context and reasoning to everything you hear.

Looks like you're describing yourself.

Glad to hear his knee is healthy. TD is a stand up guy amongst many stand up guys on our team. The praise that :cam: has been receiving recently from a handful of players negates every bad thing that was said about him from every analyst and the media leading up to the draft. I'm confident this kid is going to be special.
it's great that the guys on the team like him as much as they do and believe in him, but the only thing that is going to negate all those things that were said about him is what he does on the field. that's going to be the proof the doubters are looking for. until then, you are going to have comments like....
Like they'd say anything else.
the doubters, the ones that didn't want him here in the first place and who are probably still thinking it was a bad idea although they say they "support him because he's a panther now" aren't going to buy into it/him until he wins games.

btw...not a criticism. just an observation.

Also, did anyone else catch Jordan Gross on The Drive last week? He said he invited Cam over to his house for dinner and told him straight up to his face that he thought he was gonna be a dick (not verbatim, but basic idea was that he thought Cam was hyped, fake, etc.) and also used the "preconceived notion" reference. Told him that night that he was none of those things he thought he was before meeting him and that he has been impressed.

Also talked about Cam putting in the work and coming in in-shape, participating in the tire throwing drills with the OLinemen, etc.

      Draft intel from ESPN’s Jordan Reid

      By TD alt · Posted

      Oh, now we are "top half?" Keep moving the goal posts. No we aren't. We don't have a surefire WR2, nor do we have a TE that we can count on to consistently make big plays. Our receiving corps is somewhat bland to be honest. It does not have enough juice. Add another playmaker, then we'll likely be top half. Our receiving corps ranked somewhere between 20 and 25 in the league depending upon who you look at. No one has us in the top half based upon last season.

      It is time to Consider the Likelihood of WR at #19

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is hard to say--if you look back at our roster from 4 years ago...In addition, we have a ton of money going into our OL right now (which might strengthen the argument to draft a tackle now)  The average NFL career is under 4 years, but the average NFL career for first rounders is 9.3 years, so most get 2 contracts.   So having said that, I look at it as capital--if your concern (legit) becomes an issue, then you should have the same vision and trade that player and draft his replacement.  However, TMAC, Coker, and a rookie is not likely to be a problem for another 4 years--2030.   But to your point, we have a situation right now that the OL has 2 guards and a RT around or over 30.  The make about $70m per year.   I like the perspective of reality you bring, however.  Is that a factor to morgan in 2026?

      I have no problem drafting a WR, even as high as the 2nd, but I do have an issue with using a precious 1st rounder on it. Another WR is a need, but we also have a lot of other needs, and the goal should always be to draft 1st rounders that you expect to be on the team for 10 years if they stay healthy. In regards to Coker, one of two things happen.  He keeps getting better and becomes our legit #2 to T-Mac and we have to pay him accordingly, or he doesn’t. If he does, then using that 1st rounder on a WR this year was dumb.  If he doesn’t, then drafting a WR in the 1st this year would be smart, but then so would trading Coker when his perceived value would be at its highest. If we were already had a SB contending roster, then yes, a 1st Round WR to put us over the top makes sense, but we just have too many holes to fill to use it that way… again, unless the staff just doesn’t believe in Coker’s ability to become a true #2, which I think he really can be.
