09:47 AM ET 04.03 | Warren Moon isn't the only person who thinks race may be a factor in the way the NFL world is perceiving Cam Newton. A high ranking NFL executive, who is white, came to the same conclusion before Moon made his comments. "If Newton were white, he'd be the first pick in the draft," he said.

I believe it. That dude who wrote the story is an ignorant fool and it didn't surprise me that he was white.

Cam Newton is black? Who are they kidding? Next they'll be telling us that Michael Jackson was black.

The qb position always comes under the most scrutiny. Every day last week on FN there was a thread picking apart aspects of all the prospects game.

So leading up to last year's draft, Tebow was torn apart by the press and that was perfectly okay because he was white....and he wasn't paid to attend school I might add. Newton is a very similar player to Tebow, but god forbid we point out his flaws like we did Tebow. I mean he's black so that must make us all racists for doing so...,

If Cam Newton was white, he'd be Tim Tebow with character issues.

Yep but because he's black, everyone's just racist for pointing out flaws. Gotta love that

yeah, just like JaMarcus Russell. The Raiders never would have picked him #1 if he was black. What? Never mind.
