re: Jake Locker or Cam Newton?

Cam has the athletic ability to be a HOF TE or DE, but it's more likely that if he fails at QB, someone like Al Davis will give him another shot at QB. By then, it would probably be too late for him to switch positions.

I agree with everything you say here but I would add that while he has athletic ability to be a HOF TE or DE, there is a huge question of whether or not he has the toughness. When was the last time you ever saw him allow himself to TAKE a big hit. Most likely you haven't. When Cam goes down he goes down easy, and for that reason he better check his ego and commit himself to being standup leader at the QB position. IF he can do that he could, should, turn out to be one of the best NFL QB's ever.
