    The 4th rounder has looked decent in limited opportunities too

    Hightower has 25 tackles halfway through the season. Not horrible numbers for a rookie, but he is no threat to make the pro bowl or even be an alternate for the pro bowl like Cam was during his rookie season

    Cam sucks this year and is preventing me from winning my league.

    Julio & Trent are beastly as is Mark Barron.

    The fact that you judge Dareus by his tackles is laughable. Did you forget about Caldwell and Andre Smith? Both are starters like McClain.

    Brady is arguably the GOAT, that's all we need.

    Lulz at you calling any team a POS.

    Still early, but as of now one would have to say that recent (80s to present) Michigan QBs Jim Harbaugh, Elvis Grbac, and Brian Griese had better careers than Cam......so far. The QB position is very fickle. Guys look good and fade away quickly all the time and some guys are mediocre for years and then have a few great seasons.

    All 3 were selected to a pro-Bowl. Their selections were not based off being an alternate either.

  • It wouldn't matter where Ingram played.. He would be a #2 just about anywhere. He's simply not fast enough, doesn't have enough jukes and doesn't break tackles. Wasted 1st rd pick. Great CFB player, average at best NFL RB.. Will be a back up RB for his career.

    So we can only compare numbers for one season? Not a career?

    Why you picking on Mark Ingram though? If Cam is your measuring stick for bust, every or almost every bammer player in the NFL has been a bust except perhaps Julio and that is just a maybe. Just look at somebody like Marcel Dareus. He was the 3rd player picked in last years draft and he has a whopping 13 tackles in 7 games this year

    63-21

    I forget the guy's name, but I was reading an article today that mentioned a player on the Bill's defense calling out his teammates for not giving maximum effort. The guy apparently didnt mention any names, but this article made it seem like Marcel Dareus was one of the players he was talking about who was not giving maximum effort

    lol at Grbac and Griese being better than Cam. Grbac had 16 thousand yards passing in his entire NFL career. Jason Campbell has around 15 thousand yards passing in his NFL career. Cam will likely have over 8 thousand in his first two years. Griese only had around 19 thousand

  • Lenny do the math-
    Cam and Fairley < Julio Trent Hightower Ingram Barron Upshaw Dareus Jackson Arenas Kirkpatrick Carpenter.. Soon to add- CJ, AJ, Milliner, Lester, B Jones, Warmack, Nico. Name anywhere near those numbers! Add in the future 1-3 rounders - HaHa, Cyrus, Yeldon, Fluker (think he stays). I may be missing some but you get the point. Alabama has NFL talent, they may not all be pro bowlers. But the amount of Talent in the NFL could field an entire team, while the amout of Auburn players could barely play Tennis

    Complete horseshit. My entire family is from Buffalo and Dareus is a fan and player favorite.

    We are really interrupting her big money time guys. If she doesn't hit that street corner soon, there will be hell to pay.

    Haha! Your so stupid kid. Yep i think the DB from UGA was saying Jarvis Jones was soft as well, i mean it sounded that way. It had to be Dareus in that article. He is the only other DLineman. Haha! Did you read this before or after you put a note to cam in his suggestion box?

    Forget the coach and focus on the players then. Name a bammer player who has come out in recent years that hasnt been a bust except possibly Julio

    Trent Richardson- only averaging 3.7 yards per carry

    Mark Ingram- averaging less than 3 yards per carry last I checked

    Marcel Dareus- only 13 tackles all year

    Rolando McClain- only 36 tackles in 7 games, which translates to about 5 tackles a game. Still a bust for a top 10 pick

    Kareem Jackson- only 3 interceptions in his entire NFL career coming into this year

    And the list could go on and on but I wont waste my time listing all the bammer bust

    I don't care what Trent Richardson's ypc is. That dude aint a bust. He's been a beast for a terrible team.

    He hasn't been completely healthy and the defense as a whole hasn't played up to the preseason hype. That's also just this season hoss.

    What about last season?

    No doubt.. I don't know how anyone can watch TR play and say he's anywhere NEAR a bust. He's a flat out beast.. Did you see him play yesterday? That was an amazing performance by TR.

    Anyone who says he isn't good either doesn't watch the games or is a "hater" (I do not like using that word).

    I'll take TR on my team any day of the week and 2wice on Sunday

  • Cam is just under the pace of finishing the season with 4 thousand yards passing, It takes an average of 250 yards per game to finish with 4 thousand yards. Cam is at 243 yards passing per game right now.

    If he makes it to 4 thousand yards, he will be the first quarterback in the entire history of the NFL to have over 4 thousand yards passing in both of his first two seasons. Yet bammers and some other people on this board are dumb enough to label him a bust lol

    I'm sure the Carolina FO cares a lot about his passing yards.

    I'm glad you like to ignore others like Barron,Hightower,Jones,Carpenter...

    Not trying to take sides but Carpenter had no business going in the 1st rd, he's been injured and when he plays he looks bad.
