I think someone else on this forum brought this up but no one knew the Bronco's were looking at Cutler. Heck they didn't even spend one of their 30 pre draft visits on him if I heard correctly. So just remember Clausen could easily be a Redskin with the 4th pick. Then again this front office has played things close to the vest and a close to the vest pick would be an offensive lineman.

Such a smokescreen would only be reasonable if there was legitmate belief that he could be gone by your pick. This is a guy who had toe surgery in January, hasn't run or thrown for anyone since, and probably won't do much before the draft. I can't imagine going in on Clausen on blind faith that everything that was "seen" on tape will translate.

I mean, we are going to personally interview him like any other suitor would, but I think the percieved lack of interest is just that -- a lack of interest.

Thats also a possibility to. Maybe the lack of interest is just that, but it wouldn't surprise me if we did draft him. This front office has just been throwing curve balls and sliders left and right. The only thing I've noticed as I've said before is most of the choices they've made are conservative.
