Cam Newton is not worth drafting in most leagues

As our consensus #30 QB, Cam Newton isn't really relevant in 1QB leagues. His role as the starter in New England makes him worth owning in 2QB leagues, even if you're not starting him in fantasy. Newton is expected to earn 38% of his projected 187 fantasy points by rushing. That represents a significant rushing floor that makes it a little easier to feel confident starting him week-over-week. With a projection of 9.8 interceptions compared to 13.0 passing touchdowns, Newton carries more interception risk than is comfortable.
