Yes. Because while two players are leaving the guys around them are going to be getting older and the people replacing those two are no joke. DJ is a stud. 

U prob a Clempson fan. Coping mechanism here.
 

Nobody, on earth, besides Clempson fans think they will be “better” next season than what they had this year. These other blue blood schools like the Bama, UGA, Oklahoma, ND and the one currently curb stomping Clemson are reloading as well - Clemson better hope the ACC blows next season!

This is a stupid take for a multitude of reasons but reason number 1 is I’m absolutely not a Clemson fan.

Best thing Dabo can do here is fall on the sword at the presser. He is about to get ate the fug up by media. 

It's gonna be glorious.

Honestly, that's all he can do. "Whatya want me to say, guys? I said something stupid and they made us pay for it and made me look like a jackass."

I think Lawrence is a great prospect, but the amount of draft capital it would take to get him would set him up for failure because we won't have a quality offensive line to protect him. I'm fine with any of the top 4 QB prospects, I'm even warning up to Mac Jones.

Lawrence/Etienne >>>>>>>> whoever their replacements are 

 

Again... it’s not about replacing just two people. It’s about 10+ starters getting better. And I think you’ll find next year that DJ is going to make the transition to life after Lawrence pretty nice.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
