    After yesterday's performance, there's no doubt he will be the first selected in next year's draft. If he decides to come out.

    If he would've played at least 3 years of college football, he probably would've been considered the best player in college history. This kid can flat out do it all.

    Yep Scams a keeper. I think the biggest transition for Scam from the armature ranks to the pros should be his willingness to now pay income tax.

    I wonder if his signing bonus will be as much as the one he got from Auburn.

    Word is there already calling him a Diva because he wants the bonus all in small bills and placed in a church collection plate. He intends to celebrate on draft day by throwing a laptop computer out of his hotel window just for old times sake. I applaud these actions because you should never forget where you came from.

    I am not postive if Cam comes out this year he gets drafted in the first two rounds.

    I'll bet a six pack of Mexican beer that Peterson is drafted before Newton.

    I got a feeling that he is going to be another Jamarcus in the Pros. You know, a physical freak that could rely solely on his physicality, and not have to put in actual work to be a legit NFL quarterback.

    Sounds to me like Newton has had everything given to him anyway, I wouldn't draft him.

    Projected in the top 15, so that's a negative.

    That's probably the case but let's talk after the championship game.

    If he throws 4 TDs and over 300 yards, all bets are off.

    He could go first overall.

    Andrew Luck is leaning towards staying from what I understand, which means that someone like Newton could go really really high.
