The Panthers Cant take Newton

[Razeyfingers]

So we got Cam Newton supposedly going #1. We have a 2010 NFL rules set that quite possibly could be in place. We've got an owner who is heading up an aggressive movement to make sure that younger players get paid less (among other things). Aaaand we've got this dude here:

meet Bus Cook

He's famous for all sorts of things like:

per the wiki

Largest rookie contract in NFL history (Steve McNair, 1995)

Largest contract in NFL history. (Brett Favre, 1997)

First $100,000,000 contract in NFL History (Brett Favre, 2001)

Record setting contract paying out the most in the first three years in NFL history (McNair, 2001)

Largest non-QB contract in NFL history. (Randy Moss, 2001)

Innovative contract structure involving guaranteed money for record setting Rookie contract. (Calvin Johnson, 2007)

Here's a terrific story about how he gets down :svengo:

I just dont see it happening fellas. If it does I'll be excited and nervous, but I just dont see it.

It's happening. About time to start accepting reality, folks.

lol now we bring in the agent as the reason not to draft him..whoever we draft is going to be highly paid anyway i doubt this would make them balk..come on now people..i'm just going to assume it's newton until they announce it as otherwise..if it is someone else the CIA need to hire Hurney.

[Razeyfingers]

So you dont think JR might try to short change Cam if we select him. Might he hold out?

[thenmber2]

Can we trade for D. McNabb instead?

[YoungPanthers89]

Watch em do it

probably not..Hurney makes the contracts not him.

[frash.exe]

no you're right

we'd be much better off with the boring DT that isn't really worth taking at no.1 when we can address it top of the 3rd or lol taking a cornerback at 1 lol

[Dpantherman]

You can't sign players without a new CBA...period. There will be no CBA without a rookie wage scale, that is not what the disagreement is about. non issue.

[Lumps]

If Newton is truly worth #1 we'll get trade offers.

[pantherfan81]

Less than 24 hours I got to deal with this sh!t.....

[Catalyst]

The Rams didn't get any for Bradford...

[Dpantherman]

meh, forget it. Too obvious for the banter.
