NEW YORK The Carolina Panthers did not select Cam Newton with the first overall choice of the 2011 NFL draft to sit - and he could have plenty of company from rookie quarterbacks being asked to learn on the job this season. There were four quarterbacks selected in the first round Thursday night - the most in a draft since the great quarterback class of 2004 that included Eli Manning, Philip Rivers and Ben Roethlisberger. That class has three Super Bowl rings already.
All four of the quarterbacks from the Class of 2011 will have the opportunity to start on opening day. None of the quarterbacks from the Class of 2004 started on opening day.
