Cam Newton Workout Phenomenal

[TheRealDeal]

I don't think Auburn run's a gimmick offense or a one read and run offense. Any NCAA QB need's to be able to do the basic's at the position. To think Cam can't simply based on the fact he was'nt required to sell's the kid short IMO. I can tell you the SEC is the toughest conf. in NCAA football, hand's down. And he burned most of those team's with his feet and arm. Just can't see a gimmick offense good enough to win a national title. Just google Gus Malzahn, you'll see.

You really don't think it was a one read and run?

Thanks for telling me the SEC is the toughest, I didn't know. Too bad they play cupcakes all year. If you want to challenge yourself you play a real schedule like the Pac10 played. 8 of the top 10 toughest schedules in the country came from the Pac10. If SEC didn't have to play the Little10 in all of it's bowl games they might get exposed.

It's not a gimmick offense in the sense that it's not all trick plays but it's not a traditional offense by any means and not an offense that works in the NFL.

I did'nt say it was a damn NFL offense did I? And I'am not here to defend the SEC or PAC10, and no I don't think it's a one read and run offense.

It's weird that you kept using gimmick though when no one is saying that, all they are saying is that it's possibly the furthest thing from an NFL offense.

That's true Real deal, it is the furthest thing from an NFL offense. I only made the comment after reading Madhatters post about it. Did'nt mean to overreact about it man.

I used the word gimmick.....but it was to describe the offense as a one read and then run spread offense. It is NOT an NFL style offense.

I am not even saying that Newton does not have the ability to make reads....or that he won't be able to. Merely that he was not required to at Auburn, and thus there is no basis to know whether he can or not. That within itself makes me leary of taking him #1.

However, if the coaching staff believes he is a franchise QB.....then I say go draft him #1.

Again my reservations about him are due to not being able to evaluate certain aspects of his game....not his inability to physically do anything.

You don't like facts?

[SPANKY]

I think we all have reservation's about who to get with that pick MadHatter, and I understand why you do. I'am not on here trying to plug the SEC, just trying to say the offense was more than Cam just playing backyard football. Yes TheRealDeal, we need straight fact's homie!

yea he loves doing that, finding one little thing he disagrees with and dismissing everything else, usually the more relevant, thought-provoking info

Anyone can see that Cam padded his stats against the soft SEC and Sunbelt this year and struggled against the Pac10 and ACC.
