No one looked angrier at the draft than one Mel Kiper. Kiper seemed to take a stand on Clausen, doing so in order to show his scouting prowess against ESPN upstart Todd McShay.
Kiper Still Likes Clausen
When asked about his ranking of Clausen as the fourth best player in the draft, Kiper responded, “That’s my rating. That’s my opinion, and I’ll stand by it. We’ll see what happens three years from now.”
Clausen was eventually picked by the Carolina Panthers 48th overall.
McShay was last seen taking a victory lap around the ESPN campus in Bristol, and was therefore unavailable for comment.
