Cam's bad day the WR's fault.

[carpanfan96]

I am just not sold on him at #1 and as a franchise QB. I see too many ?? in his skillset and performance.

However, if the coaches believe they see a franchise QB in him and that he is worthy of the #1 pick.....I will support him and cheer for him wholeheartedly.

I have no personal vendetta against the guy, or wish to see him fail. I just don't feel confident taking a guy like him (with so many ??) at #1....and then not picking again until the 3rd round.

But then again....what the hell do I know about evaluating NFL talent.

I'm not sold on him either, but with this years draft..... ehhhh anything can happen.

I'm really wanting to see if Cam can make a noticeable improvement from Combine to Pro day on his drop backs and footwork. If the team interview reports are true, he answered the question that he can read NFL defenses.

Just got to see if he puts the work in to make an improvement in a week.

If His improvement on both is noticeable then that makes him as safe a pick as you can get in this draft outside of PP and Dareus.

Him throwing high on the outs was more a product of his dropback and timing than him throwing the football. I am of the belief that the things he is struggling with fundamentally are easy fixes.

This guy is giving all the warning signs. I think we all just want to believe that he's going to be our own faster version of Josh Freeman. I'm beginning to think that might just be too big of a risk at #1.

Why won't anyone step up and just prove that they are deserving of going that high?

According to a Cam fanboy.

I don't take anything he says with any seriousness. He can't get his lips off Cams ass long enough to see the truth about the guy.

Pot meet kettle. This thread proves that you have made up your mind that you're completely ignoring anything good that Cam does . The interview that you are talking about wasn't what you're claiming at all. Everybody who has seen it agrees that he blamed himself and that his problems with throwing the out route are easily fixable. He will throw at least a hundred of these passes between now and his first TC, so it's not a big deal. All he needs to do is speed up his drops so that he is in a better position to throw. If T. J Yates can do it, I know damn well Cam can do it, because he's already a better athlete than T.J in every way.

I watched the interview and I didn't interpret his comment to mean it was the receivers fault, I think he was just saying the differences in timing were a problem for him.

[Actionman0z]

I saw both, he was fine. he intrigues me a lot. I wanted Dareus or Peterson from the beginning... his throws were decent except on the 15 yard outs.. they were ugly.. he was not placing blame just said he was out of sync.

Exactly, He went on to say that he was used to throwing to a receiver not a spot regardless of where the receiver was. He said he had trouble making the adjustment and thought he would do better than he did. Apparently he was throwing to the same guy or group of guys when he worked out with Whitfield. Said he would need to make some adjustments and work on some things.

At no time did he say that it was the receivers fault or blame anyone else. He totally took on the blame and said it was things he needed to work on not that it was the receivers fault at all.

If he were drafted here, when will he ever have to throw to guys he is totally unfamiliar with and has never worked with before other than the beginning of training camp.

BTW, I have to give a lot of credit to Mayock, who said that the comparisons of Cam to Russell were asinine, and that they were nothing like each other aside from being big QB's who played in the SEC.

Yep they went on to compare him to a more realistic faster version of Big Ben. Mayock seemed to change his tune on Cam as the combine went on even said he could be a superman QB type if he puts in the work to improve on the field.

[monstercat]

If one of us compares Cam to Big Ben, we get crucified by the anti Cam crowd.

I thought they were all fixed at his media workout? How easy are they?

You guys are seriously seriously underestimating the work that needs to be done.

You have to take his comments (Highlandfire) and throw them out the window. He didn't say anything wrong and there is plenty to not like of Cam up to this point but this isn't one of them.

[panthers55]

You guys are seriously seriously underestimating the work that needs to be done.

And you have no idea what he is doing to work on these things or not. You really have no idea what it takes to be a pro quarterback anyway since you aren't one, so stop trying to be the expert when whatever you did was not at the pro level.

The reality is that guys like Shula do know what it takes and if they draft him they believe he can do it and perform well down the road. Footwork and timing are easier to work on than speed, arm strength, and size.

Like usual you are seriously overestimating what needs to be done based on your already decided opinion.

You absolutely have a right to it but to keep pawning it off as any better or more legitimate than other folks is ridiculous. Commonly called delusions of grandeur. Fortunately there is medication for that.
