Who should we draft with the #1 pick?

I say AJ Green. We need offensive playmakers and he is going to be a stud in the NFL.

I agree with you to a point. If Clausen can't hit a wide open David Gettis (or any WR for that matte) how is the situation going to change with a wide open AJ Green? However I do think trading down and grabbing AJ green is the way to go. We need someone to replace Smith in the future. And the fact that no other QB in the draft is 'guaranteed' to be an improvement over Clausen (not a Clausen fan btw). Luck was a guaranteed improvement. IMHO I think Clausen will improve next season, he will have a healthy O-Line, great running game, some good receivers with great potential coming along with him. And if Smith gets traded, we almost certainly have to grab AJ Green.

My bet is that Clausen probably won't be the one throwing?

Here is a tidbit from JR, making me think we are going to try to surround Clausen with as many weapons as possible (as I am sure everyone has read from multiple sources, there are a lot of people in the Panthers organization who are behind Clausen).

"He’s planning to change the Panthers’ philosophy. For years the team leaned on a tough defense. But now he says the NFL is so offense-oriented that offensive coordinators and quarterback coaches are nearly as important as head coaches. Richardson said the Panthers will hire a new head coach first, but then go hard at offensive assistants. And no matter the coaches, he says the Panthers are going to open up."

“The NFL has changed, in the last five years, dramatically,” he said. “We would be foolish not to stay in sync with that… We didn’t score enough points. First thing, they (fans) want us to win. But after that, they want us to score points and they want excitement.”

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I meant write off in the entire class being absolute garbage and that being on Dan  FA was pretty solid but Dan and Brandt handing out one big terrible contract to Turk Wharton. Milton was their top target and the pivot from Milton to Turk while paying Turk what they did was insane.  Id LOVE to know had we not paid Turk what type of contract he would’ve received. 3/30 mayyyybe? This is someone Brandt obviously vouched for.  I’ve watched a few of Tilis’ interviews now. One with Jourdan and one with Yates. He’s a big Moneyball fan. Giving Turk the deal they gave him is the complete opposite of the whole Moneyball idea. They paid a dude who they saw some potential in money that you’d pay someone that has actually made an impact  The worst part is that he’s 100% here next year too. That contract keeps him here until 2027 for sure

      Are you kidding? They just now figured out they could use someone else for a qb sneak.

      The biggest problem is that his upward trend is still well below NFL average. At some point there's just too much evidence to ignore. I've been there for awhile now. Honestly, it only took a handful of games for me to realize that he just had too many physical limitations to overcome to ever be a legitimate starter. I get that the organization couldn't afford to pull the plug that quick after that investment but there's absolutely no way we should've gone into year three without legitimate competition on the roster. We always a year behind kn this Bryce thing. This year should've been the legit competition year and this offseason should've been the moving on point. Hopefully we'll play catch up but I expect the trend to cj tinge and next year will be the vet competition year.
