AUBURN, Ala. — Heisman Trophy winner Cam Newton waited more than four hours while his Auburn teammates went through their drills at pro day.

Then came the 48-minute grand finale, where the quarterback once again put his arm and footwork on display before dozens of NFL officials. Newton felt he had plenty to prove after drawing less-than-rave reviews for his throwing session at the combine.

“Every single day I feel like I have coaching pointers,” the 6-foot-5, 248-pounder said. “The combine was no different. I left there not happy with my performance, but came out today and wanted to focus on the things I didn’t do well at the combine.”

That means making passes on patterns like comebacks, posts and out routes and being more consistent in making the transition from the spread to prostyle offenses. His performance drew some nice reviews.

There were 125 NFL officials, including five head coaches, at the 5 1/2-hour pro day, Auburn said. That includes new Carolina coach Ron Rivera, whose team has the first overall pick that some buzz has indicated might go to either Newton or Auburn defensive tackle Nick Fairley.

Newton and Fairley both participated only in the position drills and let their 40 times and other performances from the combine stand.
