trust me, newton will be the same piece of crap, so save your money.
bust and out within 2 years.

Nolan Nawrocki from Pro Football Weekly agrees with you. In his draft guide these are his negatives for Newton.

Under "negatives" for Newton, Nawrocki writes, "Very disingenuous — has a fake smile, comes off as very scripted and has a selfish, me-first makeup. Always knows where the cameras are and plays to them. Has an enormous ego with a sense of entitlement that continually invites trouble and makes him believe he is above the law — does not command respect from teammates and will always struggle to win a locker room . . . Lacks accountability, focus and trustworthiness — is not punctual, seeks shortcuts and sets a bad example. Immature and has had issues with authority. Not dependable."

Even more so if Bengals draft him

I'm far from being sold on Newton, but I just don't think he'll be JaMarcus bad. That being said, if you dump $250 on a Sage auto of anybody, you should have your wallet sewn shut.

Agreed. Not only is Sage something you should avoid because it will plummet in value when the NFL products and UD's college licensed stuff release, but it's also the more inferior pre-draft product as far as secondary market goes if you compare it to Press Pass or what I think Leaf will do.

I thought the 2 words were going to be "buffalo bills." As a bills fan I pray the bills don't draft him and I'm sure Newton investors feel the same way.

What are you talking about? Russell still has tremendous upside.

Sincerely,
Cade McNown

Kinda sounds like A-Rod. So it works both ways.

Comparing Newton to a baseball player let alone Arod is not even close

I think he has Jason Campbell written all over him. They even went to the same school

I think that's a bit of a reach to describe Campbell that way. He has had the misfortune of playing for a new OC pretty much every year since high school.

It's funny, that description fits with way more pro athletes than you would think, and probably a large percentage of guys coming out in the draft. It's whether or not the guy can grow up and move past that mentality that separates them.

no way, he can throw the football which white could not, i would compare him more to Vince Young then Jamarcus Russell

AUTaxMan · Mar 30, 2011

Comparing him to JaMarcus is laughable. More like Vince Young, but without the crazy.

cgilmo · Mar 30, 2011

Vince young without the crazy was still unsuccessful.

Vince Young has always been crazy, and he still made the pro bowl.

tehchamp · Mar 30, 2011

Cam Newton has the talent IMO to be a Pro Bowl QB who will make it tough for any defense to stop him.
However, several QB's have had that talent and other factors ruined their careers. There has to be a WANT to be the best and to win, and I don't know if it exists with him.
