Season 2011 QB consensus poll


The Saltman

Recommended Posts

Clausen came to the NFL a year early--and perhaps 4-5 seasons ahead of a more normal curve for professional QB evolution. Not knocking the young man, its just that his position takes time--and he is playing without the assets of say:Mark Sanchez. Worse still, he arrived in something of a turmoil and was immediately thrown to the wolves..hardly the best way to develop and groom a QB. Panthers would do best to get an established veteran QB to take the heat for most of 2011. Let Clausen take his shots through out the season as injury or opportunity dictate. Clausen is a project to be developed, he is nowhere near a finished product. Kevin Kolb ( Eagles #2 QB) is young, strong, and proficient...he might keep Clausen on bench for next 4 seasons. Cam Newton--?? Don't see another rookie QB doing much for the team except looking like a great athlete and missing most of the reads/calls for 16 games...and playing behind the rest of the offense. QB should be a leader for team in 2011, not some one with training wheels.

    • The truth is @CarolinaLivin posted it and I took notice at the names and drove into the rabbit hole, just happen it lead to Plebbit. One of my favorite draft gurus loves KC, just that he's around other panther WRs that have struggled..I mean Im about the only XL supporter leftd. Im like 50/50, but honestly haven't done enough to feel strong either. The drop and zone stuff is not what I like the weakness to be, but he is explosive, play all 3 WR spots, and does have playmaking skills which is rare. Right now I wouldn't be upset if panthers used the 51st. Months ago I told the huddle to prepare for a early WR selection. 
    • I appreciate the optimism but there's no way in hell anyone is going to give us a 2nd or a 3rd. We'd legitimately be lucky to get a 5th. Logically it really makes no sense to move him this season anyways. We do know he is a high character guy and should be extra motivated to bounce back from last season. See how it goes and revisit next year.
    • I would add that it is probably likely that you need a T during the season--I am wildly speculating that they like something about Forsythe.  However, that is not enough.  We need 4 players who can play OT in the NFL---we have 3. That suggests that we are going to add an OT at some point.  Perhaps related, but probably a pure depth move: Brady Christensen is an interesting situation. He is likely to miss the first 2 months of the 2026 season, and he will be 30.  He can play all OL positions.  That would give depth when it is usually most needed--the last half of the season.  With his injury, I doubt his phone is ringing much.  I think I would offer a 2-year deal (1.5 if you want to be realistic) for the vet minimum.
