It was the right pick. I just can't stand Clausen.

ditto that. i was sitting there loving that the little prick was falling so far and inn the midst of it goodell gets up there and announces that we picked him.

i was in shock and hated the pick but i don't blame them for making it. it was the right decision. we had other needs that could have been met but to pick up someone that could be a legit franchise QB that literally fell into our lap was a good call.

he's not the ideal but if he can win for us then i'm all for it.

I really think we picked something up special in Clausen. I have always thought he was a prick, but he has the opportunity to show the fan base he's not a douche and fun to root for. Give it time and maybe he will mature quickly. The NFL is a much different atmosphere than college.

He could be a consistent Pro-Bowler type QB and I'm in shock he fell to us.

i feel sorry for the jaguars in this draft. i think they blew it more than any other team. i'm not being mean, i seriously feel bad for you folks. oh well though. it's not the end of the world.

None taken, I actually agree with you. I understand our pass rush sucked so bad, but Garrard is a back-up at best, and there was so much more talent at 10 then Alualu. So basically the 2010 draft consisted of FOUR DLine men. I don't get the decisions they make.

And the fans not showing up doesn't help anything.

      Penn is hanging with Illinois. They've got to rebound better off all these threes Illinois is jacking up. If they do better on the boards in the second half they'll have a chance late.

      Trade: Panthers are trading veteran QB Andy Dalton to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a 2027 seventh-round pick, per sources.

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Dalton is ancient by NFL standards. Howell is only 25.  Howell's only year as a starter he put up almost 4k yards, 21/21 with a 43.2 QBR while being sacked 65 times.  This past year and the 3rd starting, which many would consider to be Bryce's best, he barely put up 3k yards 23/11 with a QBR of 47.6 while being sacked 27 times.  Pickett 4 years in the league, with 27 starts, he's amassed 4900 yards, 16/16 with a 53.6 QBR.  Now if Bryce were injured for a season, which QB would you say has more potential to step in and run an offense? I'd say Howell only because in a single season he threw for 1k yards less, more tds and granted more ints in 11 less games as a starter than Pickett's whole career.  Everyone is saying Pickett sucks, Howell sucks, but what I'm seeing is Bryce is right on par with them. Howell is on his 5th team, so is KP, yet Bryce just got a 5th year extension putting up pretty much similar numbers. The bar for QB on this organization is really low.  Did I want Howell? I didn't care. I wanted someone, anyone, who can potentially be better than what we've had the past 3 years or who we signed as a backup. We do not have even a mid tier NFL QB on the roster right now.  If Howell was brought in as camp fodder and didn't make the cut, wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. If we bring in another QB via the draft, I hope it's someone who could have the potential to be a starting QB with some development because that's the whole point.  We can't be afraid to bring in anyone who might have the potential to unseat Bryce or take his job if he's injured. The goal is to get winning seasons and make SB runs with hopefully a victory or 2. Pickett doesn't accomplish that. Dalton hasn't been able to even be in consideration for that role in over 2 years.
