Clausen hires new agent....

[rayzor]

mainly because his died in march.

Panthers quarterback Jimmy Clausen has hired David Dunn of Athlete’s First, Darren Heitner of Sports Agent Blog reports, Clausen was previously represented by the late Gary Wichard, who passed away in March.

Dunn is a Southern California guy who counts nearly two dozen quarterbacks–including Aaron Rodgers, Mark Sanchez, Matt Cassel, Carson Palmer, Matt Leinart, Kyle Orton, Matt Hasselbeck, Colt McCoy and 2011 draftees Jake Locker and Ryan Mallett–among his over 50 clients, so he and Clausen are a natural fit. With Newton the clear franchise quarterback, Clausen will need an experienced agent like Dunn to get him to another team where he’d have an opportunity to start.

i imagine he'll be trying to get traded as soon as possible if he wants a starting gig or at least a chance at one. won't be getting that here.

If he wants to get traded, he should put together some good film in the preseason.

I am thinking Seattle resigns Hasselbeck, and then trades for Jimmy.

I am thinking this would be the best case scenario for Jimmy to get his career back on track. Getting to learn under a really good, smart west coast QB, and be able to take a step back before his confidence gets completely shot.

Also, Carrol was trying to recruit Jimmy very very hard before he chose ND. So they know each other.

That's a new one to me. I hope Jimmy's agent can get us some value in a trade.

Don't forget this is a business. I think it is going to come down to how well Clausen does in the preseason and who is willing (if anyone) to give us something for him. Right now he isn't costing us much money and it would be crazy to unload him for nothing. We have historically kept 4 QBs on our roster and until we have a proven QB, you don't trade away potential unless another team give us a good offer.

Yeah, Jimmy tried to kill himself and accidentally hit his agent instead.

No we haven't.

Look Seattle gave up a lot for Charlie Whitehurst. They seem like a good destination for Clausen.

Jimmy tried to shoot himself but his agent intercepted the bullet.

most likely, the best trade possibilities will come as QBs fall apart during the season. it's going to have to take some desperate team wanting to take a flier on him and be willing to part with a 3rd or 4th. if the panthers have the roster space (and they won't be using 4 to do it unless you're talking practice squad), at only $450k he's a cheap backup who should have a grasp on the system. not exactly what i would call good insurance, but he's there. they can afford to wait for a decent offer...esp. if they get a decent vet QB brought in.

He should have hired a new arm.
