The two quarterbacks that seem to be at the top of most people's 2011 NFL Draft Boards is Blaine Gabbert for the Missouri Tigers and the 2010 Heisman Trophy Winner, Cameron (Cam) Newton, from Auburn University.Both quarterbacks were under the radar prior to the 2010 season, but shot up analysts draft boards after putting up impressive numbers. Gabbert has more experience than Newton having started two seasons as the Missouri QB, while Newton was a one-year wander for the Auburn Tigers. Cam Newton's StatisticsCameron (Cam) Newton Total Rushing Statistics: 242 rushing attempts; 1409 yards rushing; 5.8 yard average per carry; 71 yard long; 20 TD's Cameron (Cam) Newton Total Passing Statistics: 165 pass completions; 246 pass attempts; 2589 passing yards; 67.1% completion percentage; 10.52 yards per pass attempt; 28 TD's; 6 interceptions; 186.8 passer ratingBlain Gabbert's StatisticsBlain Gabbert Total Rushing Statistics: 112 rushing attempts; 232 yards rushing; 2.1 yard average per carry; 32 yard long; 5 TD's Blaine Gabbert Total Passing Statistics: 301 pass completions; 475 pass attempts; 3186 passing yards; 63.4% completion percentage; 6.71 yards per pass attempt; 16 TD's; 9 interceptions; 186.8 passer ratingSkills Advantage: Newton or GabbertArmstrength: Advantage NewtonAccuracy: Advantage Newton by the numbers, but from viewing film I believe the Advantage is GabbertRunning Ability: Advantage NewtonExperience: Tie - Newton played in hands down the toughest conference and against the best in the nation but for only one year. Gabbert played two years against lessor opponents. Intangibles: Advantage Gabbert....too many off the field issues with NewtonLeadership: Advantage Newton on the field, Gabbert off the fieldI can't really say I love either of the two, but if I had to take one with a high first round pick I would take Newton. I choose him because of the "what if" factor. He could end up amazing and revolutionize the quarterback position in the NFL, but he also could end up a bust.What do you think?
