An oldie but still a great find that was very accurate regarding Cam.

Wow, I was expecting to come in here and sh*t on B/R, but that guy deserves a pat on the head or something. Spot on.

The one thing he'll have to do is not to rely on his legs too much and read the coverage.

Once he does that, he's going to be a nightmare for opposing defenses.

Preach on, Brother Beavis.

Pretty good except  for  the draft slide but hey, dude should pick up a scratch off on the way home.

Thanks for the link.  As much as I hate slide shows this may quickly become on of my most favored resources.

In all fairness: Anyone who actually watched Cam play at Auburn, would have said things like this. It's just that we were used to so many haterz who never really watched him play (or cared), many of us started to buy into it.

Saying all that: The writer was wrong on the major stuff (such as draft position, not putting up big numbers-as in his rookie season, learning more regarding his 'College Scandal', and not having immediate NFL impact). That was all wrong. But he was right on the ancillary stuff

Nonetheless, it was a positive article, written 5 years ago during. And this writer, obviously didn't fall into the media feeding frenzy of negativity surrounding Newton.

Good God why all the Vince Young comparisons?
