Rivera says we will draft # 1 pick based on biggest need and we will use the tag

I wasn't very high on Clausen when we picked him last draft, due mostly to his small hand size, and height. If you want to go back and look at my old Clausen posts last summer, you'll see that I'm not high on every QB.

Cam has what Clausen lacked, and the strength to back it up. The only question that remains is can he handle the NFL from a mental perspective? The hard work, reading defenses, making quick reads, ect. Who knows? But my god he's got a laser cannon arm.

Sounds like a bluff to me. He didn't mention a specific position, but gave just enough info to put doubt in peoples heads. To me, it basically means "We have positions of need and I will use the pick to fill one of them." It's just GM/Coach speak.

I'm going to start calling our new coach Ron "The Lieutenant" Rivera. He reminds me very much of an infantry platoon leader.

I'd go with Gunny, for two reasons:

1. Signifies the best, toughest and most disciplined with a title only Marines carry.

2. Blue collar guy doesn't fit the officer profile to me, seems more like a staff NCO.

      Gronk is the best TE of all time, but he also played with Brady. Clarke was great, but had Peyton and in an era TE's didn't make crazy money. Kittle is great, but the two times he's made the SB, he was still on his rookie contract for one, and the other the 49ers had Purdy on a cheap rookie deal which help them build the rest of the roster. So again, it's not about not wanting an elite TE, of course it would be nice.  But realistically, in today's NFL, unless that elite TE with a top end TE salary is on a team with a GOAT level QB and/or other serious cap savings (i.e. key players on rookie deals), then I think it's not a good use of cap space.

      This place was the poo pre tepper with tons of hilarious posters like phillyB. Joined in the 2000s during the 07 season and have been here bitching about this team since. but yeah its sadly been dying a slow death, every time I come to this site I am surprised its still up. I think the 2015 season was the absolute peak, the Panthers and this board especially just haven't "felt" the same since then. Igo should really sell the board since he clearly doesn't care anymore. Also, Reddit blows and the Bryce defenders on there need Jesus.

      Guessing the price is too rich here given the injury history.  2024 was brutal and production dropped off in 2025 with a few more injuries (albeit rough qb play).    Don’t really understand the narrative that Young can’t benefit from talented upgrades on offense. Especially here with respect to a tight end. Any QB will benefit from talented receivers that threaten the top of coverage and tight ends with skills to stress zone.    The age and injury history, coupled with what he’s likely asking, just probably means we can better spend that money elsewhere.
