First of all I miss Nannerpuss.

Second, you pretty much have to. Clausen is now legitimately not playing well so no way is he "the guy". I'd like to trade down but with the QB situation this murky you can't afford not to.

The only bad thing about this is all the Luck related puns.

I love puns but you know there are going to be too many for good taste.

Luck = no brainer for us.

Do you really think one player will make a poot? With the same tired ol coaching staff, and same out dated game plans and play book?

^ Fox and Co. will be gone next year

Luck and it's not even close at this point

If we want to ever be a consistent top 10 NFL team,then yes,we should draft Stanford QB Andrew Luck if given that choice.

Nope...trade the pick for Kolb

God I hope you are joking. If not.....God help you and any offspring that you bring into this world.

Well don't count on it. Luck might not want to come to the Panthers and Pull and ELWAY and stay in school. Then maybe he can go to a worse team like the Cardinals.

[JungleCat]

I'm for getting Luck. This will always be the "same ol'" Panthers until they find a franchise QB.

[The Original SCP]

Why would he not want to come here? Or perhaps I should rephrase: why would he want to go to Buffalo or Arizona or the Bengals any more than here? No team in position to take him will be very good and Charlotte is a great city to live in, a nice stadium, well respected owner, and besides, only Elway & Eli Manning have ever tried that stunt. Most rookies are happy enough being drafted into the NFL and to be paid like they are and don't act like jackasses about it.

I think our next coach will factor into it as well. If we go with an offensive guy like Schottenheimer Luck will likely feel more comfortable than with a defensive coach. I think it seals the deal if we hire Harbaugh, too, though that's looking more and more unlikely every day. Hell, if I were Jerry I'd hire him just to entice Luck to come out early.

[countryboi]

who ever the next coach is he is going to want to bring in "his guy" every coach is success or failure depends on the QB he choses and no coach is going to want to fail with someone elses pick at QB....unless his name is manning or brady.

Assuming Luck doesn't opt to stay in school due to the lockout.

I am not saying Clausen is the man, but he has improved. He is a mid-second round QB people are holding to top 15 standards. Luck will suck unless you fix the OL and possibly bring in a true #1 WR (+ Gettis, Lafell, Smith). So, are you putting the cart before the horse(s)? So, I ask myself if it is fair to blame Clausen when almost any young QB would struggle here.

Of course, we should be well below the cap, and can fix these problems in free agency.

[The Original SCP]

Exactly, which is why Luck will be the pick if he comes out. No coach is going to want to pass on this guy. The pick ultimately comes down to Hurney & J.R. but I think they're both smart enough to know what this guy could do to our franchise if he pans out.
