I have yet to see one reason why Clausen should not be considered, if not a lock, for our first round pick.
Let me knock out a few things here first.
1. He is not Brady Quinn. Quinn was an ESPN media hype and nothing more, a completely different QB that Clausen. Clausen is coming from a pro style offense who actually has something other than a noodle for an arm and that is much better with his decision making.
2. Yes it is Notre Dame, but no this is not the over hyped program is used to be. That team is a product of Clausen rather than Clausen is a product of Notre Dame.
3. The production is there and he isn't a one year wonder, each year in college he has shown that he can adjust to fix his flaws and has improved every year.
So I leave it to you, why isn't Clausen an elite QB talent?
Cleveland will finish worst than us and draft him, as Mangini hates both of the quarterbacks they have. Other than that, he is the clear pick
