McNabb was a bridge/mentor for Luck or Cam in 2011

How would you guys react to that? McNabb would be the franchise's 1st NFL caliber QB since Jake in 2008 and he could be a good mentor to a young guy. it'd be all worthless if the WR corps aren't upgraded to NFL standards but I think it would be a start for Carolina.

I think it would be a good move. If the Panthers do draft another QB, they definitely need a good veteran to act as a mentor. I think this was a big problem with Clausen, who appears to be afraid and have little confidence to me.

Depending on what McNabb costs, I'm not sure if they would get him though because if they pay the money it takes to get a top 10 pick at QB, I don't know how long they would wait before throwing him to the wolves.

Well if there is a lockout I think Luck would do just fine with a couple years' practice. If not, bringing in a mentor would be in the best interest for Luck but I still think luck should start if he takes really well and it would be still nice to have someone on the sidelines helping him out.

Hello, Im a redskins fan(hurts to say it right now) but i have a few questions

say you guys get the number 1 pick would you guys take the deal of

Our First (potential top 6 pick) Mcnabb, Haynseworth, 2012 3rd, 2012 4th

that way you guys get a QB for now.. AND Cam Newton who most believe can be as good as McNabb... AND you get Haynseworth which i know people are iffy on getting him but if he plays in the 4-3 hes ok and quiet and will be a FORCE to open up holes for your LBs...

then you add a 3rd and a 4th in a potentially DEEP class next year with players being scared of the lockout therefor they will return to school...

Also what chances do you guys think you have of re-signing Kalil?

mcnabb signed an extension w the redskins already, right?

He did, but the contract had a "loophole" they can cut him with no owed money. So If Shanahan makes it and cuts McNabb, I really believe he becomes a Panther and will be able to mentor Clausen, Luck, Newton...whoever our QB is next year. And the "Carolina is a racist org. at QB" can stop. I mean it's a win win win all over spectrum.

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
