If we passed on luck if he came out and drafted A.J. Green or another top prospect as our first pick?

Listening to Sirius NFL Blitz Yesterday Pat Kirwin said that from what he "hears" the front office is more inclined to stick with Jimmy Clausen and build a team around him.

He also said when asked by an Arizona Cardinals fan if they have a chance at taking Luck if he comes out that they would have to make a big splash to trade up to that pick but with how Jerry Richardson has been spending this year that he feels he would pass on paying Andrew Luck as the first round pick.

So take that with a grain of salt.

If this team seriously considers sticking with Clausen and passing on a franchise QB, with way better mechanics than Clausen, i will probably revoked by fan card for this team.

I mean how pathetic would the FO be on passing up on Luck if he comes out? I would have no faith in the GM or JR for that matter no more. Bad part about it is, the panthers would not surpise me if they did this.

      You're not understanding what I'm saying. I'm saying that truly elite players will always have a market because they're elite difference makers and that at the "devalued positions" the NFL has discovered that those are spots where unless you have an elite talent there you have an opportunity to get similar results out of run of the mill talent for run of the mill money compared to good talent for good money. The drop off in overall unit performance isn't dramatic dropping down from "good" to "JAG" and it saves money to invest in the premium positions. It's about skill sets and what is hardest to find, simple supply and demand. There's just more serviceable LBs and RBs and safeties out there than their are CBs and pass rushers and QBs. And honestly, a big part of our historic lack of consistent success has been investing too many premium draft and cap resources into those devalued positions. Yeah, we've had a lot of great off the ball LBs and RBs on our way to be a franchise with an overall losing record. Pointing to our success at those positions is proving my point because I just point to our W-L record and overall lack of historical quality at premium positions like QB, WR, CB, etc. We've sucked in large part because we've valued the wrong position groups. In a vacuum it doesn't matter. But in actuality every high pick or big chunk of cap you spend on an off the ball LB or RB or IOL is a high pick or big chunk of cap you couldn't spend on a QB or CB or WR or OT.

      Right before Kuechly retired, we had some of the worst D line play that year.  We were ranked 29th against the run in 2019.   I remember even Kuechly struggled to get off the blocks at times because the linemen were on second level so quickly due to our porous line made up of Kyle Love, Vernon Butler and a washed up Gerald McCoy.
