any half wit can tell Newton is by far better by watching the two play.


in a pro style offense which do you think would be better?

And Darvin Adams didn't?


agreed he did in every game but Clemson. However, Auburn is a better team and if Darvin wasn't playing well Cam could win the game by himself or use his TE, or #2 WR or even his #3 WR.

Kearse and Polk are easily as good as Adams and Dyer. All numbers together they look very similar as well.


Auburn plays better competition. No telling what those players would do vs. weaker competition.

clear out of everyone's Top 10/15?


whose?

Where? I havent heard about him since the beginning of the season.


every draft website.

stats don't always tell the whole story and I don't think they do in Locker's case. He has had a bad year this year there is no denying that and Wash. in general had a terrible year.

He still has a strong chance to be a 1st rd. pick and some mocks i've seen have him as a top 15 pick.

I don't think we can have a full idea of what Locker is capable of until the Sr. Bowl when he has elite talent around him.

Adam, someone who-s never seen him play, or hasn-t the proper criteria to analyze him, is seriously bateing you. Cut lines.

Merry Christmas.

Not sure why you're trying to convince yourself that Locker is a better QB than the Heisman Trophy winner.

Newton by a mile. He is a much better passer. Locker is nothing without his running ability.

Overall Auburn has some more offensive talent than Washington but a good reason why it looked that way was because Cam Newton is THAT much better than Locker. There is no questioning Newton blew away Locker this year. Do you really think Locker would of had any close to a similar year playing with Auburn as Newton did? Not a chance.

So wait a second, wouldnt this also work against you in the Cam vs. Jake debate? Cam not only played leaps and bounds better this year but played MUCH tougher competition overall.

Which recently updated list is he still Top 10/15 in (that's reputable)? He's #23 now on ESPN Scout INC after starting the year #1.

I frequent a few and havent really heard a thing about him since beginning of year. He's fallen way off.
