Yet..I have said (in not so many words) that JC isnt the caliber of player that Luke is....so whats your point?

 

I wont be one of the people who poo on a guy for not being a phenom. Luke is in a class all by himself in regards to his ability and game readiness moving up from college. Clausen isnt. That said, Luke had Beason and Davis to learn from/question. ( not to say he needed it) Who did JC have....Matt Moore?

 

Gimme a break, 99% of Panther Nation thought Jimmy Clausen was the second coming of Joe Montana. The city of Charlotte, Mel Kiper and fans of this team went nuts when he was drafted. PSL sales went through the roof. Having someone to learn from and take your rookie season off is a luxury, not a given.

 

'Nuff said... please continue to

Clausen was a 2nd round pick.  QBs taken in the 2nd are usually looked at as guys who need a year to develop. I dislike Jimmy just as much as the next guy but he never really was given a fair shot. He was thrown into the fire with rookie wideouts and an all pro receiver who hated his guts. He's shown no improvement over the years but we didn't really even give him a decent chance to succeed in his rookie year.

 

Realistically Jimmy should be remembered as one of the biggest busts of all time. People were touting him as a future superstar and the next Kurt Warner. Hell, there was even a debate on whether he should be taken at #1 instead of Sam Bradford. The only reason he fell as far as he did is because at that time not a lot of teams were looking for QBs.

 

Get real this team has sucked since 09 , regardless of who the qb has been. It has been a poor ran franchise for a long time now.

My mistake, meant to say 2nd round...

 

However, looking at the 2nd round QBs taken since 2008, most of them were starters as rookies....

 

 

I think only about half of them were starters.  Brian Brohm, Pat White, and some guy drafted by Denver were not starters, while Andy Dalton, Kaepernick, and Clausen were starters in their rookie season.  I might have missed one or two though.

2012: Luck, Griffin, Tannehill, Weeden,

2011: Cam, Locker, Gabbert, Ponder

2010: Bradford

2009: Stafford, Sanchez, Freeman
