Cam Newton = Lebron James

[Tarheels23]

A lot of you may not like Lebron James as a person, but you can't deny that you would love to have him on your favorite NBA team..

Coming out of High School it wasn't Lebron's Basketball skills that had NBA scouts salivating. It was his athleticism, unique speed & size combination, as well as his NBA ready body that made him the player he is today.

Cam is no M. Vick or Locker for that matter when it comes down to speed, and us huggers aren't trying to dispute that, but what the haters don't get is that it's not about how fast he is. It's more about how fast he is for his size. He's fast and elusive enough to out run any Defensive Lineman, and yet big enough to stuff arm, run over, or throw any LB off of him with ease.

In conclusion - Lebron may not have the best jumper in the game, but that doesn't stop him from being one of the best players in the NBA today. Same with Cam, he may not be the most accurate QB out there, but with his unique attributes as well as his QB skill sets, he sure as hell has a great chance to set the NFL on fire.

Plus speed is not a good indicator how effective a person will be running the ball. Otherwise, every year the fastest running back would bet picked first. It would be the easiest draft pick every year.

good try, that about it.

the qb position relies on so much more than just physic and athletic abilities.

LMAO.......

Not even close. Lebron James was the next big thing. From the second he stepped on the court he was one of the best players in the league. There was no learning curve. He lived up to the hype immediately

Cam will not be one of the best players in the league from day one. He will need to develop.

So even if we draft Cam he will screw us over like LeBron did the cavs and go play for someone else..got it.

As a Newton fan I really don't understand why other Newton fans keep forcing their opinions on others by making very, very, very bad arguments.

[YoungPanthers89]

so in 5 years he will leave us without a title for the steelers

[Lout]

Wow... I think we found the biggest Cam hugger of them all.

beat ya to it :D

[chknwing]

And Lebron has won how many championships? I'll pass on Cam.

[CatMan72]

Actually, Clausen was supposed to be the LeBron James of football... LOL

Hope this doesn't mean Cam will almost win championships for us and then take his talents to South Beach.

Cam played college ball...Lebron did not. Cant see a comparison here.

Lebron has also proved his poo dont stink...Cam has not.

With the franchise tag in place it's not as easy for a player to just bolt to another team as it is in the NBA.
