Via Twitter...

A lot of interest in Clausen: Limited arm talent, small in the pocket, poor throwing mechanics, needs functional space in pocket to deliver.

QB w/limited passing skill sets need lot of team (run game, defense, sp teams) to have any success. He didn't have that.

Would help to have some context to know what he means by "a lot of interest" (guessing he means him personally; pretty sure he's not talking trade).

See, what I find weird about that is...

Didn't Gruden say (along with 99% of analysts) that Jimmy Clausen had the best mechanics of anyone in the draft last year? Their knocks on him were about his character... not his arm. :confused:

This is kinda my problem with everyone piling on as well.

Most of the "tv scouts" had him rated much higher than he went, and almost everyone thought that he would be at worst a good starter in the league.

I still can't figure out what happened.

and a lot of people have talked about how comical the Gruden "QB sessions" are b/c he is far from a QB guru.

Gotta always remember that lots of "expert analysts" have their reasons to endorse or knock players.....and a lot have no clue what they are even talking about.

I want to see what he can do with a real staff.

still think if you want to see what Clausen has to offer he has to have a change in a WCO. His skill set just makes him a doormat in the offense's Carolina is running.

he won't see the field much and he shouldn't see it if the only point of it is to help drive up his stock.

best and most realistic chance for us to get the most value is some desperate team (of which there are a few) looking for a QB who thinks/hopes that he has a lot more potential than last year would cause you to believe.

the more time he sits on the bench, regardless of coaching, the less valuable he becomes.

i just want to see what some other team is interested in offering up for him.

not sure he's going to get to show anything here this or any year he's in carolina.

Has Cam now been elevated to Superhuman that has a built in Morphine drip that will allow him to never feel pain, therefore he will never be injured! Awesome! Take that Jamarcus Russell!

be lucky to get a 5th or 6th rounder for Clausen.

I would imagine if he is as horrible as some report he was in practice last year this upcoming camp......kid might just not make the cut.

      Bears fire Matt Eberfus

      His o loaded with swift, dj, Keenan and Rome was inconsistent at best. The d was bad. And the game management was atrocious and lost them games.  He was terrible and made the team worse. I wish they kept him

      That is my point.  I think teams make a huge mistake when they pay their decent to average QBs top QB money because they feel that they have to match the market or lose their investment--There is no way, for example, that Tua or Prescott or Murray should all be making more than Mahomes--I mean, Dak makes $15m per season more than Mahomes. People say, "Well, when its his turn...." But that is not how it should be--so my point was that Bryce can be doing mediocre to good enough in 2 years, but the way it is going, you have to pay him at the starting QB rate--currently $60m.  So even if you think he will continue to improve, at $60 m, he would eliminate any chance for a ring---so my view is, if he is not elite, you cut him.  So you draft QBs now and see what you can make of them.

      With two 4ths and three 5ths I’m hoping we can kill it on adding depth. Take a gamble with the two 7ths.  First 3 picks id love to address the defense. I expect Tuttle, Robinson, and Jewell to all be on the 2025 roster but not after that. Be a good time to add depth and let them develop a year.
