ESPN Picks Between Newton & Luck

Recommended Posts

I love me some Cam Newton, and I couldn't be happier that we got him. But you guys that are trying to discredit Luck are just nuts. No pocket presence? The only reason why he takes off so often is because dude is deceptively fast and when he see the defense stretched out and knows he can get an easy 12 yards on a scramble, he takes it. Luck is the real deal, and when he and Cam go toe to toe in the NFCCG or the SB over the next 15 years, it will be some of the best football any of us will get to see as Panthers fans.

Luck needs to be knocked dwon a few pegs just b/c of his elitest mentality. He & his dad are looking like Eli Manning & his dad. They want to 'pick' the team he goes to.

I would take Cam everyday...he is happy to be here & is proving everyone wrong.

Luck is great (no doubt), but I hope he proves everyone wrong the opposite direction form Cam, b/c I do not like players who feel entitled to decide who they will play for as rookie.

This is the only thing I 'disagree' (used loosely) with you on. Luck is fast & doesn't look deceptive to me. Cam is deceptive in his speed b/c he is so big he doesn't look like he's moving that fast.

I don't see how any Panther fan (& I'm not saying you are Montsta) can look over the fact that Luck consciously decided against coming to Carolina. I hate Luck since that decision (it wasn't for a Championship or anything else...he was 'choosing' where to go). I hope he fails, but doubt that will happen.

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