So let me get this straight, you guys hate Clausen and Edwards yet...

[thunderraiden]

You guys hate that Clausen and Edwards sucked in their first season, yet you want to get a QB at the number one pick in the draft that will undoubtly not look good for at least two years and could very well be the next JaMarcus Russell.

i'd rather pick up the next big ben or steve mcnair than sit around for alex smith to reveal himself to yet another team.

thanks, though.

[Jackofalltrades]

Funny how that works, no?

[Mother Grabber]

I sure hope they don't cancel free agency this year.

Cam could be a bigger and better version of Big Ben just as easily as he could be the next JaMarcus Russell...see how that works. As far as we know, Cam is not hooked on purple drank, and hasn't raped any young girls lately, so that's a pretty good start.

[KaseKlosed]

is he seriously comparing Russel to Cam Newton???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

[KaseKlosed]

[ncbobcat]

Actually, I think Cam would be closer to VY. A great athlete at the QB position, but not necessarily a great QB. Russell was never considered a model of athletic prowess, just a cannon arm.

[Kettle]

there aren't enough threads about Cam!!! :willy_nilly:

[rayzor]

we could get the next jake delhomme in here or the next aaron brooks.

tony pike was drafted late and is a tall skinny goof so obviously he is the next tom brady.

drew brees is a midget so he's pretty much as good as seneca wallace, right?

both peyton manning and jimmy clausen are white, so they are essentially the same guy.

and yes, i'm pulling all this out of my butt, but it still makes as much sense as some of these other comparisons.

That is an opinion.... That is not a unquestion fact. There is a good possibility he may not look good for two years, but that is not true without doubt.

I just wish some would not speak as if these opinions of a players perfermance in the future are facts. They are opinions you feel confident about, but not facts. There will be many variables involved and we, just like the team can only predict how they think they will perform.

Don't forget... Blaine Gabbert is next Ryan Leaf...

Let's see, Newton is:

Black: check

Tall: check

Plays in the SEC: check

Has a big arm: check

He must be the next Jamarcus Russell!

This is as goofy as people being scared to draft Fairley because he knows Jamarcus Russell, LOL
