Wow Cam Newton has dropped down to #26 on this ranking. I wonder if Cam will be sitting around squirming like Brady Quinn on draft day, waiting a long time for his name to be called?

Newton is going early.

You get pretty touchy about your quarterbacks, I’ve noticed. Tebow, Young, now Newton. The irony is that I agreed with you about Tim Tebow. -
I wasn't all that big a fan of Young- I much preferred Jay Cutler that year and would have taken Matt Leinart over him as well.
Cam Newton- dude is a big risk imo and I think that he's a lower half of the 1st rd guy. And I would indeed take Ponder over Newton. Newton has a LOT to prove, especially given that he's a 1 year wonder. If he was available at #15 I'd probably pass. Locker would concern me there, too. Still like Dalton as a 2nd/3rd rd guy and I do like Scott Tolzien as a mid/later rd guy.
Ponder is a guy, if he medically checks out, that you imo take at #15 or trade down in the 1st, pick up a 2nd, and take Ponder late 1st and maybe a Pouncy, Wisniewski, or Marcus Cannon in the 2nd, depending on who might slip a bit.
Still intrigued by Gabe Carimi, can't get that out of my head. -
Cam Newton showed more aptitude as a quarterback—not just a passer or an athlete, but as a quarterback—in one season than Young did in his entire NCAA career.

1. Vince Young is talented.
2. Cam Newton is talented.
3. "Cam Newton = Vince Young" is lazy thinking.

I'd rather have Ponder than Newton for the simple fact that he's much more cerebral.
