Hello again and welcome to the fourth installment of our Draft Winds series for the 2011 NFL Draft. Each week we aim to bring you the best and most thorough Draft information possible, all from the vantage of Miami Dol-Fans hoping for the franchise to improve their favorite team in late April. For obvious reasons, we had been planning on a close examination of the quarterbacks available in this year’s Draft. Among this year’s quarterbacks class stands a player that is so enigmatic, so controversial, we felt he deserved his own special so that we could sort out facts from myth. That quarterback is Cam Newton of Auburn. The last seven days have seen Cam’s name buzzing up quite a bit, in no small part due to his media workout on February 10th, but also due to a piece of news revealed by a prominent Draftnik.
Are the Miami Dolphins interested in Cam Newton?
Prior to the media workout that Cam held in San Diego, Tony Pauline of DraftInsiders.net and CNNSI dropped a bomb on Draftniks and Miami Dol-Fans alike, when he wrote: "Last week in San Antonio at least six different teams said they rank Auburn quarterback Cam Newton as the number one prospect in the draft. The opinions were comprised from scouts, personnel directors and a few coaches. All had Newton rated clearly higher than Da’Quan Bowers, Nick Fairley, Marcel Dareus and competing signal caller Blaine Gabbert. We hear the Miami Dolphins have been inquiring heavily into Newton at this stage of the game."
