grab orton if it isn't to high of a risk, 3rd rounder or fourth.......mcnabb if he's not high risk as well.

but no qb is going to do good if we dnt fix our o-line problem, it would be nice to have some o line depth like in 08. Even if we can't get orton or mcnabb,name moore back as starter as long as he isn't used as a sacrificially lamb like last year

T.J. Yates in later rounds, but a veteran has to be brought in either way. Watching the Colts play last weekend, the first thing Manning did after coming off the field was look at pics of the coverages... our QB's go sit on the bench alone, which was also a reflection on how bad the coaching was.

But as far as Clausen is concerned, his arm strength is certainly not NFL caliber and his mechanics are flawed, not to mention his leadership skills are questionable at best. Yates throws well on the run and has great touch on his deep passes, reminds me of a bigger and stronger Jake Delhomme... before his elbow problems.

Without having read all of the comments on here it looks as if they are really going to try and have Clausen be the guy.

Whether this is a good plan or holding any sort of truth is yet to be determined. I doubt from all of the indications thus far that they will be drafting one.

At least they aren't going to throw him to the curb. Of course the front office wants Clausen to succeed and hopes it is all the fault of Fox and his staff. And they hope that Clausen can get better with a good offensive staff.

But as for not drafting a QB, that is still up in the air. Rivera also said he was used to having a franchise quarterback to work with. I figure much of that is yet to worked out once he hires a OC and quarterback coach.

No doubt we need a vet, I have mentioned McNabb, Alex Smith, Troy Smith, or VY... But, what is they just bring MM back as the vet?

1.troy smith? :yikes: are u kidding? trust me, clausen is a billion times better qb than troy ever was...i know what i'm talking about.

2.vince young? what's so special about that guy? he is still a head case...

having Jimmy start again is pointless. Not simply b/c he is garbage but b/c he limits the growth/improvement/play of everyone else on offense.

Carolina has to have some one not named Clauen start week 1.

not jimmy is/was the limit on the offense, your coaches were.

Reading this thread makes me shake my head.

Mcnabb? Sorry, he isn't the guy he use to be.

Volek? Would rather ride with moore.

Any of the san fran guys? Once again, id rather ride with moore.

Orton? Not with any draft pick this year.

The reality of it is, no one in the draft is going to make an impact at qb next season.

Regardless how you feel about moore, he is still a good option, even as a backup.

As for another vet...will have to see what rivera has in mind....cause I'm sure he's not considering most of the names being thrown around in this thread.
