Haven't we learned our lesson yet with all the fast black QBs in the league that never amounted to anything??? Even the great Mike Vick needed about 10 years and jailtime to become a decent passer
I realize Newton is a world class athlete, but the QB position is wayyyyyyyyyyy more mental than physical and newton has never played in an pro system with pro reads and throws. He's gonna struggle for 2-3 years and then MAYBE (and it's a huge maybe) develop into a decent passer
it's a huge risk for #1 pick. IMO the only play this year is marcell dareus at #1 pick. You're pretty much guaranteed to get a dominant defensive lineman with him
