Let me say that I cut and paste the headline and I am not sure how strongly he suggested this. It was likely a response to a question by Gantt:

"This is a quarterback league," said Hurney. "Look at the order of the draft. The ones who have 'em are picking low, and the ones who don't are picking high." Hurney added, "This has nothing to do with Jimmy Clausen." The interview was done with Darin Gantt of the Charlotte Observer, the top Panthers beat writer in the nation. Gantt is convinced the pick will be Cam Newton.

Take FWIW

old news as Gantt is gone?

Hurney will not even tell you what he had for breakfast during the month of April. I suspect he is talking for the rest of the league, i hope so anyway

Again this is from a radio show this morning.

Does anyone take anything away from the comment about Clausen?? Seemed odd to me to throw that part out there. Sounds like a guy setting up the groundwork of spinning his pick. Maybe it was just a throw away line however. Just seemed odd.

      Lowest Yards Per Completion...All Time.

      Russ worked.  I still vote Doug Flutie as a competent, sometimes really good starter when he came back from the CFL - and I maintain, I think he could’ve been that without going to the CFL, part of why he didn’t was because of the stigma the NFL has against smaller QBs to begin with.  But, both Flutie and Russ had above average to excellent athletic traits - be it arm strength, strength, elusiveness, etc.  and Kyler could’ve been right up there with him if he cared about football as much as he does Call of Duty and streaming.     the difference between those guys and Bryce?  Again, Bryce has almost zero desirable athletic traits you would want in an NFL QB.  He is below average in every category. And then to boot, as you said, if you’re below average in EVERYTHING physical, you HAVE to be damn near the best mentally and processing - and he proved to be even subpar in that category.  All of that to say, I will NEVER understand what anyone in our organization saw in him to not only draft him, but to trade up to do so and then give him 3 whole years to stink it up.

      I think that plays a factor for LaMelo, among others. Obviously the biggest being that he just doesn't seem like a guy that will ever be healthy long enough to build around. Also, he still has some maturity issues. He will just basically take himself out of a game every few weeks by losing his poo about some call and then piling up frustration fouls or TO's. I think that goes back to his dad. He always built those kids to focus more on themselves than the game around them.   Okay, this was maybe the 4th game I have seen all or part of and I like him. Especially knowing that he wasn't a Lane Kiffin guy the whole time. That's a MASSIVE red flag for QB development. If he was available around the 3rd round or lower, I would absolutely be okay taking a flier on him. Promising prospect. Way more polished than someone like Malik Willis, IMO.
