Cam Newton scares me.

^^ Thank Heavens.  Prevents Sparano/Ireland from making a huge mistake.

My sentiments exactly!!!!! When I see Newton I think of Jamarcus Russell 2.0!!!!!!

What sunk JaMarcus Russell above all else, IMHO, was work ethic. Reports seem to indicate that Cam Newton has a good work ethic (at least when it comes to football *cough*).

We'll probably get to know what Newton's Wonderlic score was pretty soon. (Lack of) Intelligence seems to be what his detractors are pointing to...

The Dolphins are one of eight teams that will bring Cam Newton in for a private workout:

I think he goes in the top-10...

Cam Newton had a monster of a pro-day and will almost certainly be gone by the time the Dolphins pick.

Hearing Carolina or Buffalo for Newton.

Don't other guys still have their pro day yet to come?

Hearing Carolina or Buffalo for Newton.

Buffalo is happy with Fitzpatrick.  Carolina just drafted Claussen.  I don't know if either of these teams spend 1st round picks on QB's.  Both have much bigger holes to fill on defense.

Buffalo is happy with Fitzpatrick.

I don't buy that for a second.  They were happy with what he did last year. I don't think they feel confident at all that he'll do it again next year or the year after that. He's had 1 pretty good year in the NFL and he's been around for 6.

Fitzpatrick are you friggin kidding me? The guy is a career backup. He stinks. He isn't someone you build a franchise around!! He had a decent few games last year like Tyler Thigpen did a few years ago. Playing on a horrible team that was always losing, so when you throw 50+ times a game your stats look good even though you are a bad QB! Happy with Fitzpatrick, give me a break!! That is a silly thing to say!

And just because you take Clausen doesn't stop you from taking a FRANCHISE QB if you think one is ther #1 overall.
