Will Cam Newton be a starting QB in the NFL?

• newarkcatholicfan

  

  I am guessing he gets a job handed to him but will struggle and then be a good back up.
• Ty Webb

  

  He will be a starter 2-3 years after being drafted
• Be Nice

  Starter...no way. Clip board holder....Yes. He'll be one of the tallest in the league.
• Pick6

  

  NO. He will be used somehow though. Kind of like the Broncos are using Tebow (when they use him)
• se-alum

  

  I doubt it. He'll have to read defenses in the NFL, something he doesn't have to do in college.
• Be Nice

  No, but he would make a good backup to TP someday.

  What makes you think either one of them is an NFL quality receiver?

  I agree. If they play at all, it won't be as starting QB. Whether their egos will permit them to be something other than QB remains to be seen.

  you are contradicting yourself, which one is it?
• Ty Webb

  

  The second
• cats gone wild

  I think he would be a great fit for Minnesota Vikings. Newton, Peterson, Harvin and Rice.......who would stop them? Anyone would be better than Favre.

  Where have they shown this? Did you have the chance to watch a private workout? Just because they are tall and can run fast doesn't mean they can be an NFL receiver.

  It wasn't more than a handful of snaps.

  Doesn't matter
• Cleveland Buck

  

  He has every physical tool, but there is no way of knowing how he would project mentally in that offense with wide open receivers. If I had to guess, he will stick around at QB because of his running ability, but he will never be a good passer and probably won't be a starter after his first few years.

  one catch doesnt make an nfl wr. Hell, David Tyree had one of the greatest Super Bowl catches ever, yet was released by the giants.

  That is like saying if a halfback throws a pass for a touchdown that he would be a great NFL QB.

  He may, Mike Vick seems to be doing pretty well for himself.

  Mike Vick played in more of a pro-style offense in college.
• bigkahuna

  Mike Vick also made it a point to transform himself in Atlanta and now in Philly.

  I'd take him in the Nati!!
