Doesn't matter who at #1, Moore/Clausen/Vet will start

Some people might not understand this. If we do draft a QB he will need to sit for a year. In that case, Moore/Clausen/Vet will be starting. If we don't draft a QB then Moore/Clausen/Vet will be starting. So ether way, Moore/Clausen/Vet will more than likely start. If the coaching staff feels the need to throw a unprepared rookie QB into the fire (like last season) then we will just see another repeat of last season (Clausen 2.0). It might be just me, but drafting a rookie QB (especially in this draft class) and expecting him to start (even after a few games) is like asking us to David Carr our QB.

I'm all for a franchise QB, hell I've wanted one for years now, but there is no franchise QB's in this draft AT ALL. Next years draft will have 3 Top 10 QB's (all franchise material: Luck,Barkley,Jones). Even some mid-late first rounders, all better than what we have to pick from this season.

The top 10 QB's being discussed in this years draft class would be drafted late 1st - mid 2nd round next season.

So as painful as it is, Rivera/Hurney, please just wait one more season.

If Clausen got 'thrown to the fire' we should start him and find out for sure if we have wasted a second rounder or fuged him up somehow. Or we should test Moore again for that matter. Drafting a QB is still a smart move.

Yeah, next season. Drafting a QB this season is like playing black jack, trying to reach 21 while you already have 20 in your hand.

LOL CarolinaCatBrigade has chrystal ball. Can see future.

Go back and read the scouting reports on Big Ben. Almost all of them say he would need a year or two to adjust bc he came from a small school and/played in a spread and never took snaps under center.

17 td passes and a Super Bowl later Big Ben proves you have no idea until they get to camp to determine how long it will take to adjust to the NFL game.

Will Cam transition that fast??? Maybe, maybe not. I am not presumptive enough to think I know exactly what the future holds for any QB.

Just like nobody knows whether this class is any better or worse than next years class until they play in the NFL. A report yesterday said as many as 8 QBs could be taken in the first 3 rounds. As far as anybody knows this could end up being the best QB class in history.

No one knows the future of these players.

I love how people compare Newton to Big Ben. Considering they both have off the field issues, and both hurt their teams in the playoffs.

But yeah no one knows what's going to happen but quite of few of us want a vet like McNabb or Palmer to mentor whomever takes over the reigns in the near future.

If it's just Moore/Clausen/Cam imo it will be an open competition.

What experience do you gain by sitting on the bench watching terrible quarterbacks?

How do you prepare yourself by riding the plywood come Sunday?

If you honestly believe a starting rookie QB would do just as good as the same rookie QB who sits and learns under a qualified vet (none currently on the roster) then you sir do not know football.

Of course this has a few exceptions (Bradford, Ryan to name a few).

I doubt that will be the lineup. We will bring in a qualified veteran QB. We have too.

It would more likely be Vet/Clausen/Rookie (if we drafted a QB). IMO it will be Vet/Moore/Clausen.

I agree. I never said Moore/Clausen had to teach them. A veteran could do that. You don't have to start in order to teach. A veteran pick up in FA (whenever that may be) will be a key offseason move.

but who's to say that our current qbs can't be "taught"? what's the point of adding another rookie. and what about AARRMMAANNTTII!!

Best case scenario for the Panthers is Clausen starting and playing well, while Newton sits and learns the NFL game. In the off season, Clausen will demand at least a second in trade value, maybe more.

If we take Newton and he has to start by midseason, it probably means we aren't doing well.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
