They are running that bullsh!t Urban Meyer/old Wv Moutnaineers/Oregon Ducks offense at Auburn.

Cam Newton won't get drafted in the first round to play QB.
Espn insider, Dallas is taking A LONG LOOK AT HIM WITH THERE LIKELY TOP 5 PICK.

That would be awesome. It would guarantee their mediocrety for another 5+ years for wasting that pick and feeling the need to give him playing time for the first three years because they picked him so high.

Strong arms are a dime a dozen. You need accuracy in the NFL. If he chooses to run, he'll get hurt.

JaWalrus and Akili are both black - but they're not athletes like Newton.

Newton is a guy who will probably play wide out and run the wildcat. Newton will be a solid pro - just not at QB

I disagree. I think he will get drafted first round and play qb. If tebow can go first round then this guy is top 5.

Whether he is a top qb in the pros is hit or miss but he will get a shot...unless he is arrested first.

Auburn and Oregon and even Michigan play that kind of no-huddle - spread - video game style offense.

You think that the Shoelaces kid at Michigan or Masoli are NFL qb's as well?

In the NFL - you have to really be able to read and understand defenses to play qb. That takes a lot of work.

You can have an IQ of 50 and zero work ethic - and still be a superstar in the kind of offenses that Shoelaces, Newton, Tebow, and Masoi have thrived in.

It's mainly about reading one or two defenders - and having more athletic ability than your opposing defense.

Masoli is 5 11

Shoelaces might be 6'0

Newton is 6' 6

Tebow is 6' 3

I'm not saying newton will be good although the jury is still out. I always thought tebow would be a bust. I just said he will be drafted in rd 1 at qb. He has too much athletic ability for some team not to take a shot.

It's not skill, it's size and potential.

It seems one or the other is the case. He's either not very smart or he's incredibly lazy (could be both). If you feel the need to cheat in those glorified middle school classes atheletes take in college, your either dumb or lazy.
