ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter predicts that Auburn quarterback Cam Newton will be the No. 1 overall pick in April's draft. "Last week, I sensed Blaine Gabbert," Schefter said in an ESPN Insider Q&A. "This week, I'm more on the Cam Newton bandwagon. The more I hear, the more it sounds like Newton is the player to beat for the No. 1 pick." Schefter points out that the Panthers "need to create buzz to sell some tickets," and Newton is their best bet for that. Schefter beat everyone to the punch on Sam Bradford going to the Rams at No. 1 overall last year. Source: ESPN
Whats scary about this is that it could very well happen. Schefter predicted two months before the 2010 draft that Bradford would be the top pick.
QB is a terrible pick at #1 for Carolina IMO. If you want a QB so bad draft AJ Green and go get young or Kolb and have some nasty weapons to go with that QB
