| Re: Griffin shows his smarts Quote:
Assessing the differences of the top QB prospects basically amounts to splitting hairs. But for me its Cam size coupled with his athleticism that makes him rare and set him apart: elite arm strength, elite athleticism, elite size. I agree that Luck is by far more 'pro-ready' but being 'pro-ready' is a coachable trait and the advantage of pro-readiness may not last past training camp. I don't even know what this discussion is about anymore. *shrugs*

And thankfully for the Panthers their talent evaluators were right. I think Cam proved many of the pre-draft evaluations wrong.

Funny that we've gotten to the point where we're trying to talk up Luck of all guys. Even if he's a notch below Cam, he's going to be a heck of a player. | |

I recall Gil Brandt, Mayock and Howie Long off the top of my head were advocates of Newton. One of my favorite Luck traits are his pocket presence which allows him to seamlessly transitions from a broken play into a playmaker and his consistency in the midst of constant media whirlwind.

I will say this though, it's unprecedented to have two QB prospects that are this good in the same draft. Just absolutely insane.

|  Re: Griffin shows his smarts I have to admit I haven't watched much of either Griffin or Luck throughout their college careers, but I do think people often undervalue Griffin mentally, as far as the whole 'pro ready' thing. I would also argue that Griffin seems a lot more confident than luck, more ready to be the face of a franchise. |

| Re: Griffin shows his smarts One thing that I really hope this coaching stafff does is put in some spread stuff for Griffin. And I hope they have him in Shotgun most of the time. That's what he's good at so adjust the offense to him. I'm very skeptical about that actually happening. We shall see.... |

| Re: Griffin shows his smarts Quote:
Either way it's hard to get a running game going in the NFL off the shotgun. I mean I'm not opposed to using it but I'm picturing an offense with a lot of movement and I think our under center formations do a better job of that.
