Before any of you crucify me...

Look at it this way.

Jimmy Clausen starts the season for us, with the talent that is with him now, If Jimmy Can't produce, then ,ok, cut your losses. But if he does produce and generates decent numbers so other teams take notice. This only means Jimmy could be used a trade bait. Meaning the panthers could rape a team just like...The Eagles.

Look at the Eagles, they RAPED the Cardinals for a guy like Kolb. Kolb arguably had some really good Talent around him in Jackson, Maclin, Celek. The Cards still took a chance and gave away a good CB and a 2nd round pick for him.

We don't lose anything by doing this. Nothing, Cam gets to sit maybe 4-5 games tops. We see if Clausen can garner interest. Swindle a team into thinking he's worth say a player we might need at a certain position and a draft pick. Or just a high draft pick. At this point if we just get enough interest that they would only get a 2nd round pick for him, I say do it! Get that 2nd rounder back for the guy.

Thoughts?

Jimmy mustn't start anything. If he wins the job, then I'm all for it. If he blows in Training Camp, and the Preseason (or whatever the hell the NFL is doing) then he should promptly be cut.

He has absolutely no reason to suck this year.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
