Would you trade the no. 1 pick for Cam Newton?
 

We ran into this topic late Saturday night in another thread.

I personally don't like Cam at all. He's got a ton of talent, but is an absolute idiot. He can't even learn a full playbook. Newton has put up some big numbers, but they haven't translated into a lot of wins.

He is 13-19 as a starter over 2 years.

58.9% comp | 7,920 yards pass | 40 passing TDs | 29 INTS | 1,447 rush yards | 22 rushing TDs |

Would you give up our no. 1 pick for Cam Newton?

Put down whatever you are doing.

Not enough Clark Kent.

Moot thread is moot

It's tough. Cam has the physical attributes and I guess he CAN get smarter/learn more. Although I DO believe in Geno and what he can do. I''m on the fence at this point.

Coming from the guy who started the "is it safe to assume we won't draft Joeckel" thread.

Um, that's not moot. Its something that is possible, whereas this is not.

Good try though!

Absolutely take cam over geno, sorry....

This isn't impossible. It's just very very very unlikely.

I mean, this is almost a trade for luck scenario... Almost

I'd put Andrew Luck way ahead of Cam.

Right, it's a true hypothetical debate topic. I say yes. Over geno, I'd take cam or rgIII. Trading the 1st for another QB? Luck is about the only other option. They're young and have potential along with playing time in the NFL. Where geno is just young and has potential, but no playing time. Too big of a gap.

Don't blame you

By the way, any other active QBs you trade #1 for?

Off the top of my head, to have on the current Chiefs team for the #1 overall pick. These:


Aaron Rodgers
Andrew Luck
Russell Wilson
RG3
Eli Manning
Matt Ryan
Drew Brees
Big Ben?
P. Manning?
