Did Cam just move up to a first round NFL pick?

Around mid-season the NFL scouts said the Auburn offense did not afford (no pun intended) him the opportunity to check off to enough receivers to tell about his passing ability.

Now, after the past two weeks, what do you think? He was projected third round, has he moved up to a first round draft choice in the NFL?

Newton's going to be drafted a lot earlier than people think. And by a lot earlier, I mean borderline top 10. More than any other position, QBs with a ton of upside always get drafted much higher than where people projected them to go. Factor in his tremendous college production and I see a team with a high draft pick taking a chance on him.

Well, splittimg away from my Alabama fandom and going to my NFL side a bit, it seems to me that Cam Newton has had success with superior physical ability, but the culmination of his off field issues and sometimes his behavior on the sidelines would make me wonder if he could adjust properly, or atleast make a serious atempt. That and the spread would make me want to pick him in the second round.

Maybe he can go late first. Probably go undrafted though, since lockouts are serious right now.

As long as he's not picked by the Saints, I could not care less.
