Cam ran a 4.56, but Cam is 100x the runner Luck has ever been. & Cam's passing drill in last years Combine was rigged, didn't know if you knew that or not.

[Windu]

Luck OFFICIALLY ran a 4.67

[Windu]

Cam ran a 4.56

who told you that?

[GP1_KB24]

who told you that?

A panthers writer from Charlotte Observer tweeted it.

yea but it wasnt the official time was it

[Windu]

A panthers writer from Charlotte Observer tweeted it.

he's more than likely wrong since no one else lists Cam's 40 time as being anything other than 4.59

how was it rigged GP? just wondering...


it will be interesting to see what kind of career Luck has, he really never had a good wide receiver to throw.

Highly regarded quarterbacks electing to hold off until their Pro Day is nothing new, of course. Often the reasons given by these quarterbacks as to why they'd rather wait until their Pro Day is the fact that they'll be throwing to their own receivers in the surroundings they've grown accustomed to. 

NFLDraftScout.com, however, was told of another reason why quarterbacks may want to wait until their on-campus workouts. The high-level source used Cam Newton's erratic performance during the Combine throwing session last year as an example.

"Last year [scouts] didn't sync the QB drop and the wide receiver pattern. For example, [Newton] was dropping five steps but the wide receivers were doing three step type patterns." 

The miscommunication caused Newton's accuracy to appear to be inconsistent. He took the hit publicly for a mediocre performance and to his credit never said a word publicly about what may have been the biggest reason for it.

The Carolina Panthers obviously looked past the performance -- and considering the terrific rookie season Newton had in 2011, they were certainly wise in doing so.
