Yas: Clausen here to stay, maybe no Luck

[The Saltman]

its all bullshiit and it is almost like reading a bleacherreport article.

Matt Moore played lights out in 2009, and yet they went out and picked up Clausen and Pike.

You're telling me they won't pick up Luck after Clausen's played the way he has?

[mav1234]

Yes, he left himself wiggle room (hence the maybe in the title) but in his various writings on the subject he seems really stuck on the FO's belief in Clausen.

It's funny to me he says "People who will be here next year (not John Fox)", haha

I have no problem with keeping Moore, but Clausen has got to go.

[Dpantherman]

Why the f**k should we care what he thinks? he doesn't work for the Observer anymore, hell he doesn't even live here anymore, he has no scoop. F**king dumbass. I knew I shouldnt have clicked.

[Proudiddy]

Also, I'm starting to think his sources may be team equipment and the head BOA Stadium custodian...

Because someone posted in the "Hurney on the radio" (1110 Am I think?) thread that Hurney essentially sidestepped the question about Clausen and then said you need a franchise guy to make your team successful, then talked about TB, NO, and ATL already have them.

smoke and mirrors

Just fire Marty Hurney for s**** sake. If he passes on ANY QB in this draft to give Clausen another chance I might not root for the Panthers anymore. It would just be a ridiculous decision to stick with Jimmy Clausen.

its not going to happen. Just another reason to hate Pat Yas for starting the s**t. everyone with a brain knows that luck is going #1 overall to whoever has the first pick

Not to mention its not going to be completely up to Hurney anyways if he DID want to keep Clausen. You have to consider what the new coach wants. You have to consider what will sell tickets. You have to consider a lot of other things, not just what Marty Hurney thinks. IMO part of the negotiations for a new coach will be having a large say in the player that gets drafted with our #1 pick. You get this opportunity probably once in a decade (if that) when you are a good franchise (which I think we are).

If the Panthers end up with the #1 pick, have the opportunity to draft Luck and dont there will be mutiny in Panther land. This is one where JR, Smitty and the rest of the world should step in. Make sure Hurney doesnt do something so stupid. I dont care how one might think Clausen may turn out. You dont pass on a possible franchise QB. If you take Luck and he ends up being a bust.. so be it. That is much better than passing on him, when he is right there and he ends up being the next great QB.

[The Saltman]

unless we get a blockbuster trade for luck it would be stupid to pass on him. I mean ricky williams type of trade.

[X-Clown]

Is Yas still thinking Kris Jenkins is his inside source?

[MHS831]

WHen has any team EVER told ANYONE who they were picking--IN MID DECEMBER? If it is inside info, why is YAZ telling everyone? His livlihood is based on a free flow of info.
