Where Does Clausen Play Next Year?

He will be playing bench next year being mentored by a Vet QB and watch Luck light it up. We could possibly get a 4th or 5th rounder if we traded him to a team that thinks he still has potential but was wasted on a team that doesn't know how to utilize a rookie QB. If he sits on the bench for a while he will do nothing but lose value IMO.

Brady Quinn was traded to Denver for Peyton Hillis who was a nobody, a 6th round pick in 2011 and conditional pick in 2012. Unlike Clausen Quinn actually showed some ability to play even though he wasn't great. Peyton Hillis has worked out for Cleveland but he wasn't traded at the time for being a stud. Point being, Clausens going to be here because hes shown nothing. Wouldn't get more than a 5th or later for him.

I would say Pike definitely won't have a place here next year, and I think Matt Moore can go ahead and pack his bags as well.

But, as for Clausen, I think that if we could realistically get a fourth round pick for him, especially a higher up fourth round pick, I would definitely do it. But, only if we get Luck.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      Me and you clearly have different definitions of production. If you remove the 2023 season where Thielen had just over 1k yards he is 43rd on our all time receivers list just ahead of Jonathan Mingo. And before you ask why would we remove that season? Well a couple reasons. For one thing we won a whopping 2 games. And for the biggest. Thielen was 14th in targets in 2023. We absolutely force fed him the ball all season and finished with the 32nd passing offense. For comparison sake 33 year old Jerricho Cotchery eclipsed over 1k total yards in just 2 more games and with 67 less targets than Thielen did in that 2023 season. He has above average hands. That's it. We overpaid him because we were desperate and overvalued him. That's the reality no matter how many times you or anyone else wants to quote me and get defensive about it.

      He's played great and it was a win-win (rare free agent) for both parties.  One of the points is he hasn't made enough difference to "waste" 35 million on. Another point is by the time Panthers are hitting their prime, he would have taken snaps away from young WRs/TEs/RBs. "Thus" in the long term, hurting the teams new future "window."  But I dare think of the monkey poo of a offense the Panthers had without him the past 2 years. Lack of talent leads to many problems, including paying a 35 year old to be somewhat respectable. Hes one of few that cared enough and made a effort. Plus you know he's done great stuff in many other ways for the team, community juggernaut, leadership, etc.  Judgement is for AT and his 3 year panther career!!

      But it has gotten a little wacky. RBs-https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/contracts/_/position/rb     A couple months ago iggles made Bark the highest guaranteed RB, jeanty was until then. That's what matters the guarantee. A rookie never played a down was the leader, until iggles howie made things right.  If a safety gets drafted in the top 8 or so, he would have the highest money too or very close to it.    Add in TEs and C too.    Even with the fixed %, the numbers are getting too much for a player that's not proven themselves.     Plus anytime a QB is drafted it screws up the contracts for players around and if next year a punter gets drafted at the same 90th spot, they want the same contract with the 5.7% increase. Teams would be laughing.    Its just reached this point. Another 10 years and I bet the vets will be crying.
