Cam Newton Rumors & News

Cam Newton will look a little different come this fall, but it's all in an effort to further improve his game. An article by Joe Person, he details how Cam has lost 5-6 pounds this off-season. This puts him at around 245 lbs, which keeps him as one of the largest quarterbacks in the league -- but also allows him to be a little faster on the field. "I don't know if he did it intentionally or it's a matter of how active he's been," Rivera said, but it's hard to imagine this is a wild coincidence. If anything, the likelihood in being away from Charlotte would have added weight, not lost. ...

As Panthers fans, we already know that the offensive line is one of the weaker parts of the team. We've seen that evidenced by the lack of a consistent running game and Cam Newton's necessity to escape the pocket sooner than he probably wants to leave. We're not the only ones who've noticed. Evan Silva of Rotoworld has published a ranking of all 32 offensive lines in the NFL, and the Panthers are - as expected - not rated highly at all. In fact, the Panthers are ranked the worst among all the teams in the NFC South, and are in the bottom third of the entire league. Here's Silva with hi...

Philip Lutzenkirchen... This is one of those odd undrafted free agents who'll be tough to judge. First, he only had 59 receptions in his college career, yet 14 of them were for touchdowns. As you'll see in the chart below, he had a grand total of 628 receiving yards during his time at Auburn. While many point to the Tiger's having a tough time on offense last season, there was a guy named Cam Newton there in 2010. So I'm not buying the "it was the offense" argument. But what make Lutzenkirchen intriguing is his accolades. YEAR REC YDS YPC TD 2009 5 66 13.2 2 2010 15 185 12.3 5 ...

When Gettleman said he wanted hog-mollies, he wasn't kidding around. The Carolina Panthers have selected an offensive guard after double-dipping at defensive tackle in the first two rounds of the draft. Edmund Kugbila, a 6'4" 317 lbs. road grader from Ghana, has been selected 108th overall by the Panthers in hopes that he can help keep Cam Newton off his back and create running lanes for our stable of running backs. While this pick may come as a surprise to most fans, coaches were impressed by his ability to move in space at the Senior Bowl, and given the Panthers' desperate need to f...

1) The Tampa Bay Buccaneers picked up the best corner back in the league when they dealt their #1 draft pick and a conditional 3rd or 4th rounder next year, for 27 year old Darrelle Revis. Being in a division with Drew Brees, Matt Ryan, and Cam Newton, the Bucs had to improve their secondary. Revis is the kind of player that offenses have to scheme around, and that makes him invaluable. 2) And on a related thought, for some reason I just expect the New York Jets to screw up their draft. 3) OK, if we're to believe all the latest draft "buzz"; Geno Smith will have an Aaron Rodgers type d...

The Browns conducted a private workout with Florida State quarterback EJ Manuel on Saturday, and Manuel said he got a great vibe from coach Rob Chudzinski and offensive coordinator Norv Turner. Chudzinski even compared him to Cam Newton.

I have to admit I'm a little surprised Newton choose Belk for this and that he is a professed Belk customer. If you're bored you can go check out the video of his Belk fashion event extravaganza. I would call it a little clumsy in typical Newton fashion (pun intended). So how does Newton describe his Modern Southern Style? Cam Newton talks style, new menswear line | al.comNewton was gracious enough to take time away from his many endeavors (including his studies at Auburn University) to share his views on style and what sets his collection apart. "I understand the customer because I...

No preamble, we're getting right to it. With the 14th pick, the Carolina Panthers select Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, University of Tennessee. Brian Spurlock-USA TODAY Sports The reason I have Patterson here is because he gives Cam Newton another target and is very versatile. The Panthers old offensive coordinator, Rob Chudzinski, was a pretty innovative offensive mind who really took advantage of Newton's strengths as an athlete by using a lot of read-option and even some triple option (very rarely). Their new OC, Mike Shula, is expected to keep a lot of the concepts that Chudzinski in...
