A Few Snapshots From Wofford 8/5

At minicamp, Clausen was the only guy who asked for names so he could personalize the autographs. I got him to write one to my good buddy's teenage daughter (she thinks he's cute).

Don't know if that's possible to do at training camp with the sheer volume of autograph seekers, but in a smaller setting he was very accommodating.

Smitty does that alot in autograph sessions. Many times it isn't just being nice but by personalizing it, it makes it much less valuable to anyone but who it is meant for, and is less likely to be sold and find it's way onto E-bay. Most players won't let you take pictures of them signing as well especially in an autograph session so you can use that to authenticate the signature when you go to sell it. At least those whose signatures are valuable like Smith. They are fine to take pictures with you all day just not when they are signing an item.

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
