"Cam" says he feels like a pistol and that all the negative talk is his bullets(ammunition) for his swagger (Ego). LMAO , this is who we all want running our team , offense , representing the city of charlotte , the fans, I came away unimpress in every single situation he's trying to prove his worth a first overall. Only after a very short decent college season. Cam emerges as this saver or this unstoppobed force "All of that he is not"

Is based on fact not on hype. Can he play QB, how long has his name being around football. Swagger is going to win him the superbowl on his first season.

Cam Newton: Unavailable for comment

Carolina, don't say you weren't warned.

Quarterback Cam Newton, whom most persons think the Panthers take with the first pick in Thursday's draft, didn't stick around for media interviews Wednesday at an NFL-sponsored event in New York City. He did, however, participate in earlier activities with city children, throwing passes and making handoffs to kids who were there. But once the interviews started Newton left.

So what? So that's not the protocol. NFL officials later explained that Newton is an unusual case because, unlike other draft prospects, he paid for his flight here, he's paying for his accomodations here and he's paying for his expenses here. Which means that Newton's on his own -- something he interpreted literally.

But that's the problem. Essentially, Newton demonstrated why some scouts and coaches are wary of the guy -- because, they said, he sometimes does what he wants; listening to advice not from professionals but from the people closest to him. Some persons associated with Wednesday's event suggested that Newton was more interested in doing what he wanted than what he and others were asked to do. Others complied; Newton did not, and that's a team player?

OK, so he's on his own. Big deal. You'd think he'd try to do what he could to subdue criticism, not encourage it. If there weren't all sorts of issues with the guy to begin with I might not be so critical. But on top of everything we've heard it's just another red flag.

Look, I'm not trying to pile on the guy, but I don't remember someone showing up for these events, then stiffing the media. Yes, that's his prerogative, but there's also something about responsibility -- especially if you're going to be the first pick in the draft. All I know is that LSU's Patrick Peterson, who wasn't expected to show Wednesday, somehow made it there late and made himself available to everyone.

Newton's stiffing the media isn't a big deal in and of itself. But it is when you start putting the pieces together. The franchise quarterback has a zillion responsibilities, and one of them is to deal with the public and the media -- essentially, to be a team player. This is just another signal that he could ... I said <i>could</i> ... be a load to deal with on the next level if, that is, someone doesn't get to him and straighten him out.

"It's not that he's a bad guy," said one coach who spent time with him the past month. "It's that he's immature. He doesn't make every-day decisions that most of make for ourselves. Someone else does it for him. And if that continues in the pros it could be a problem."

Good luck, Carolina. You may need it.

Can't blame you. I do not like Cam as a our #1 pick. But If he is our #1 pick, I will accept it as true fan.

That's kind of the way I feel.

Honestly, if I have to come out and say it, I do hope they take Newton. But really, all I want is for the coaching staff to come through.

Whoever they take, I just want that player to become a player to be feared. I don't expect it to happen on day one. But in 2012 or 2013, I want that player to be molded into a star.

Of course, I also expect the front office to wow me as soon as they can with some bold moves in trades and free agency to fill the holes, 'cause there ain't a player in this draft (or any other, for that matter) that can do it all on his own.
