Will Clausen be a holdout come training camp?

IF he is stupid.

He couldn't do a dumber thing than to hold out. Right now he has the opportunity to come in and take the job (or at least prepare himself for his future opportunity). If he holds out, he will have no chance at being a starter for the forseable future.

that will set the tone for his career imo....with his questions marks being what they are and his fall in the draft.....if he held out for money it would pretty much kill any shot the kid will at earning the respect of this lockerroom....which for him might be a tough task regardless.

I'd say it's a given that his contract will take a while to get signed.

Fox and Company shouldn't have showed thier cards that they were trying to trade up and get him. Just take him at 48, say you're happy to have him, and them pay him the alotted money at that spot.

By saying they were trying to get to 32, that gives Clausen and his agent ammo to demand more money.

He can sit out all he wants though, only hurts his chances of beating out Matt

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
