Cam Newton Workout Phenomenal

[C47]

LOL if it didnt mean anything then they would not attend. They look at the whole body of work. Your seasons, your bowl games, your workouts, your combine, your wonderlic, and your interview with them. Its all come into play and all factors into there draft process.

Right at different percentages.....

I know the all star games themselves don't mean that much, but we have heard a lot today that throwing in gym shorts is easy. Well if you struggle in gym shorts all week in practice the way Locker did.....

Throwing in gym shorts to guys you've been working with for at least three weeks, probably longer, is easier than doing it for the first time. Just saying.

The feeling I get is that some feel that you can't use a high pick on a QB unless he is rated the way Luck was.

Well if he is a once in a decade like prospect, we will be waiting along time for another Luck. It is time to get a franchise QB.

I will say it again, the Eli, Rivers, Roethlisberger draft was considered by many to be a weak QB draft also.

So was Vince Young' date=' Matt Leinart, Jamarcus Russell and Chad Henne.....how's that working out....[/quote']

I agree with a lot of that. But Henne lost to App State. No offense Armanti.

Um no..... Body of work! The big picture. Ryan leaf is a good example of how you could do everything right then blow off one interview and change what a team thinks about you. Thats what Im talking about. Its all important at the same degree.

No it wasn't....both Rivers and Manning were projected to go in the top 10 and Big Ben was projected to go in the top 18 by a lot of draft sites if I remember right....

True. But who you are throwing to doesn't effect the fact that you can't throw straight. It wasn't anticipation Locker was missing it was accuracy IMO.

But it's not, obviously, we've already heard experts say gym short workouts aren't as important as game film so they obviously aren't weighted the same.....

Well right now a lot of people have Gabbert and Cam going in the top ten and Locker in the top 20 so it looks about the same.

Eli wasn't an overwhelming prospect. There were a lot of concern about Rivers throwing motion and arm strength. And Ben came from a spread, was never under center, and played weak competition.

When I say Eli wasn't overwhelming I mean he wasn't a Luck type guaranteed prospect at #1

Still three QBs projected to go in the top 20 =/= weak class....

Everyone knew Eli was going to be number one. That's why it was such a big deal that SD had the first pick....

this arguing gets really old.. this whole thread is filled with misunderstanding..

Locker sucks.. no one is saying we should draft him, so talking about Locker is pretty irrelevant to this whole discussion.

Mayock is a widely respected, and very knowledgeable.. So he says Locker is the 2nd best, that's hardly a reason to say his whole volume of work is worthless..

so since that is stated in the simplest of terms without any implication involved..

what the f*ck.....

Where did I say his volume of work was worthless? I do find it odd that he has a QB ahead of Cam that has never even come close to proving he's a good passer though. I mean damn, how can you rate a QB that high if he can't throw a lick?
