Glad I never bought a Clausen Jersey.

It may just light a fire under him.

Who knows, maybe competition will be good for the guy. By many reports, he's been really handed things a lot in his lifetime. If he has to work hard for something, perhaps it'll motivate him to do so, which may net us a decent backup long term or a quality starter until Newton/Luck adjusts to the game.

My girlfriend called me up earlier today and went, "So which Panthers player was your favorite again? Was it Matt Moore?"

Suspecting she was thinking of buying me a jersey, I just sighed and told her not to worry about any name-related gifts right now since I had no idea who would be on the team next year (obviously an exaggeration, but yeah)

Talk about depressing. =(

Smith!

Doesn't matter if he's on the team, the jersey is still golden.

yeah, very true, and I am pretty sure Beason would be there still, so those are two choices. I was just kinda depressed by the idea of figuring out who to choose from, because I feel like neither of my two favorite players nor my runner ups are locks to come back. =(

      I try to keep up and project the roster with color-coded charts.  You can see priorities and gauge who has the best chance of making the roster--you can see the priorities as well.  Here, Yellow is a 2025 draft pick, green is an undrafted free agent, and orange is a free agent. The depth chart will obviously change and I am not sure about roles (positions in all cases), so that is not the real issue at this time, but yellows and oranges show how the team focused on which aspects of the defense:     In the front 5, there were 3 draft picks, 3 free agents (not including players we re-signed), and two undrafted players signed. In the back 6, there was 1 draft pick and 2 free agents (LB, S), and four undrafted free agents. The undrafted free agents are always long shots, but by identifying them, you can tell which longshots might make the roster.

      The rise of analytics in sports goes back to the use of sabermetrics in baseball.  The ironic thing is that the whole point of Bill James work was to objectively figure out each players contribution to to a team's wins throughout the season.  This is possible in baseball because each at bat is essentially a 1v1 with an objective outcome.  Applying statistical averages also works a lot better with hundreds of plate appearances over 162 games a year. PFF grades plays subjectively, and then puts them into buckets.  They then create different statistics based on those buckets.  That's all well and good and I'm not saying it's useless.  But calling it analytics like it's some kind of objective science is a far cry from what is actually going on.
