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.''
