no offense Aubies but I question is intelligence. He has the physical skills but in numerous interviews, how he ALWAYS takes his Dad's advice, and his problems off the field I'm not sure how smart he is. Also, his lack of experience in a pro style offense coupled with his ability to read coverages. It's definitely a risk.

What I'm hearing from those I trust:
Right now there are 12-13 guys that carry a 1st round grade. None of them are QB's. The only one with a first round grade was Luck. March and April may add a guy or two into this group, but more guys get eliminated from this group than added during the process.
Last year there were 22-24 guys with first round grades.

couldn't have said it better myself, not to mention the whole laptop incident. He clearly isn't that smart and that means a lot for a QB in the NFL. Physical tools will take you far in college but nowhere in the NFL, look at Jason Campbell and Jamarcus Russell.
No skins fan (including myself) want Cam. We're going after a Von Miller type, compliment our still new 3-4 D and Orakpo.

I hope the skins pass as well as everyone else.
All the way to Miami at #15.

My in-laws are from DC, as well as Auburn fans from their youngest retarded son attending. Even they don't want Cam in a Redskins uniform.
Not like any of it matters as long as lil Danny is owning the thing

He'd fit at Miami. They're Bama's lil bro too. Couldn't get the Bear from Bama and couldn't keep Saban from coming to Bama.

no draft guesses I see on the internet have him in the top 5.
I saw him work out. Learning quickly. that's nice.
long way to go as pocket passer, therefore top 5 is out of the question.
teams only spend top 5 picks on sure things, not on guys who need to learn more to be able to play the position.
I have my money on Miami at #15.
MIAMI runs the wildcat.
MIAMI does not want or need a pocket passer. He is ok for them.
I think he is a sure thing at #15, but if for some reason they dont, then New England, which has multiple picks at each of the first three rounds. they can afford to pick him with their 30th pick in the draft. They wont use their pick at #17, belonging to Oakland. That is going to be a skilled lineman, ready for action.

Hope you are right. Miami talking heads are very pessimistic about him being around at #15, but if he is and they get him, I am a very happy camper.

He put Auburn on his back this year and faced some really tough situations while doing so. His teammates love him. I think he is a winner. The biggest adjustment for him is going to be adjusting to a NFL offense.

Agree. I think he has the intangibles as a leader and guy his teammates will buy into.
I disagree with that statement. While I think Cam will do well in the NFL eventually, he comes off as very immature and childish. I don't think that will translate to grown men in the NFL. Cam's has a lot of growing up and maturing to do, IMO.

Will you recycle your "All In" posters and use them at the Miami games?

He has great tools much better throwing motion than Tebow or Vince Young. He is a huge question mark because he is full of himself. He will need to lose that to lead men. And it will be interesting to see how he responds to getting jack the frick up. Oregon did it to him and his game suffered some.
