If we make the playoffs in 2011 that means we had to at least have decent QB play...and like us this year, no team will trade the rights to Luck. Oh, and yeah Barkley is considered an elite prospect, some think he is on the level of Luck.

That is why we must make the trade right now, try to dress it up a little and not just swap first round picks. (Since Carolina was so awful this year, maybe teams will think we will be a middle of the road team next year and get good drafting position.) It's a gamble, but the only thing we would actually lose is the chance to draft Luck. I strongly feel this should be the FO's thinking. Looking at Barkley's picture on Wikipedia and his size, he kind of remind me of someone.:D Yet I'll definitely look and see what Barkley does next season.

If he can't be picked up this year then why are we talking about him? I don't get it.

Because franchise QBs don't grow on trees. There are those who can be made into a franchise guy, and there are those who are already franchise guys coming in. Luck is a franchise guy coming in.

You mean Clausen didn't show ANY potential, what about the 4th down throw at NO? That's not a "flash" of potential, there were a few more good plays he made too, he also almost led us on a game winning drive in Cleveland, he was a good game manager at times when the run game was going. I agree, I know he didn't give us much reason to believe but until a new CBA gets done we won't have access to any FA's so he has to be the plan headed into 2011 whether you like it or not.

It's sad when you have to point to specific plays instead of whole games right? He didn't have 1 200 yd game. If we don't have access to any Free Agents I fully expect them to resign Moore and have them battle it out. All reports indicate that Clausen is nowhere near the talent Moore is.

Being honest, there isn't one guy around the league that if brought in, wouldn't beat out Clausen for the starting job.

Very true. Moore is very comfortable in the pocket, where Clausen is not and scrambles.

Moore got a raw deal as far as the starting gig goes. I wish Fox had a little more faith him. Moore has the tools to be good. He's got pretty good touch and timing. He needs to shore up his decision making skills. You could tell he was rattled in that first game.

Agreed. IMO, Moore has the ability and talent to develop into a good QB with the right tutelage. He has shown the ability to win at two different times and under-fire, and I don't buy the "it didn't count" arguments.

Hey folks, got here a bit late and am feeling too lazy to read all of this.

Can I please get the readers digest version? I am willing to give rep.

Thanka-San in advance...:D

Zod is trolling to get more hits to the site. He thinks anyone who watches football thinks Clausen should get another chance. He thinks if you've given up on Clausen you are an idiot.

People agree

People disagree

People are on the fence.

:lol:

Add some racist comments and it seems like a catch-all description..

Rep delivered

That's really what it's been.

Early comments were in favor of Clausen because he's a rookie and coaching and scheme and you know.

Later comments were more negative.

Then we got into the vet argument.

Then Moore came up.

Then JaMarcus came up.

Back to Moore.

Then Summary

      Panthers Sign QB Will Grier

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible.

      Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.

      Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
