all I have to say is if Shanahan drafts Newton or any other qb, he better do more homework this time around than with what he did with McNabb before trading for him - a lot more homework. Because he screwed up in a major way with that decision.

The ol Madden joke. Seriously I think Donovan will be back, if not so the F what but I still want AJ Green at 10 if he's there.

He won't be. We will be taking Von Miller at #10 and our defense will be a lot better for it. Especially RAK!!

... because his career from this point on will be defined by what he does at the quarterback position.

I don't think anyone will touch him if this injury is as bad as some say.

Serious lower back injuries are QB career killers. Wait and see I guess.

Buh bye early first round if that's the case. Lots of questions about his mechanics and character already so one more red flag might torpedo his stock.

Yeah but keep in mind Shanahan's scouting philosophy. He doesn't really worry about poor mechanics so much. He looks at the players' best moments and then he determines whose best moments are...best and then says I can coach that guy to the best of his ability always.

So if, IF, we were to take a QB in the first round I guess the question is whose the best of the best when he's at his best...and who will be available

That scouting philosophy would probably explain why Shanahan traded for Donovan McNabb last year. When McNabb is "on" he is spectacular, so his "best" is way up there...

AND McNabb was available unlike some other guys whose "best" is way up there too - - such as P. Manning, T. Brady, D. Brees, P. Rivers A. Rodgers ...

It's not bad at all.
Stripe1973 RT @aublog: Michael Wilbon reported last night Newton had X-rays on lower back, came back negative.

Hooray?!?!

I'm good with Rex. Line men are needed, but getting average lineman and coaching them up is Shanny's strong suit. I'd like Prince Amurakura, if he is there. We need a strong CB.

Wilbon is in Cams camp, and knows almost nothing about college football.
