Cam Newton's advisor, Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon, got the vibe the Panthers are sold on Newton as the quarterback they've locked onto as the No. 1 overall pick according to Jim Corbett of USA Today.

"Ron Rivera came and watched him practice the day before his pro day as Cam was going through his routine for the pro day and said, 'I've seen all I need to see as far as him throwing a football. I'm already convinced there. We just need to talk to him more about who he is and get to know him a little bit better,''' Moon said.

"The Panthers had a great meeting with him over dinner that night.

"I think they came away very impressed with the kid. It's just a matter of whether they want to go defense or offense. If they go quarterback, it'll be Cam.''

Just read a John Clayton mailbag, and he seems pretty sure the Panthers are taking Cam as well.

Cam Newton gives them a marketable player. Tiny Thug Steve Smith is on his way out.

I don't care who takes Newton, I just want him to go 1 thru 8. Same for Blaine Gabbert and AJ Green.

lol

Okay, for now on Steve Smith is to be called only Tiny Thug. If we play them and he catches a ball, it's not Steve Smith caught a ball, it's Tiny Thug caught a ball.

lol

It's all about motivating the fan base and putting asses in seats, I guess.

If I was a Panthers fan I'd be uber pissed.

Since when did Warren Moon become Cam's spirit guide?

Since he started being on the take.

I don't care what Moon says, he must be getting paid to be taking all the talk about Cam so personally.

Yup, he'll be just another one of the many run-first, came from a scaled down passing game, "atheletic" QB's that fail.

If the Panthers take Cam Newton with the first overall pick, Marty Hurney and Brandon Beane should be fired.

I had to get in on the action. I loved it when Hogan went to the nWo.

The NWO was the shit, and Scott Hall was the coolest of the cool.

I still watch highlights from events I taped years ago, and also pull up videos on you tube.

Big wrestling fan. Shit we made a wrasslin thread in it's honor.

Same here. Unless we traded down, acquired some picks, then selected Cam. Otherwise, I'd want Gabbert and thats it.

I'm not sure if you noticed, but old timey black QB's always seem to be "mentors" for the new school black QB's.

I think it has something to do with the civil rights movement.

I wouldn't trust anything what John Clayton says.
