Sal Paolantonio (from ESPN) had a one on one w/ Hurney

I just confirmed with 8 sources that the Panthers are definitely taking Newton.

My sources are never wrong.

My sources: Teeray, Pantherfan81, Sam Mills Fan, Million, Swordcat, KT, DaCityCats, and KaseKlosed.

clayton also said on ESPN radio this morning that unless carolina gets cold feet at the last minute they will take newton

The crypt keeper said it, so it must be true.

I dont know what to expect. I think they might wait until the draft starts. It would be smart to wait. if they announce the pick early they'll probably cancel 50% of the people planning on attending the draft party.
