I cleared Bleak Falls Barrow, got the shout as well as the Dragonstone, and returned it to Farengar.
However, I'm not getting an option to return the Claw to Lucan. Nor is the Dragon Rising quest starting. Why would this be?
Why can’t I return the Golden Claw

Best Answer
First off, you can return the claw to either Lucan or Camilla (through conversation cues), which will complete the quest.
If you are on PC, you can use console commands to complete the quest, changing the attributes of the Golden Claw to no longer quest-related, meaning you can drop, or sell the claw.
As for the Dragon Rising quest, Jarl Balgruuf will interrupt a conversation with you and Farengar, and then will wait for you to talk to him at the top of the stairs, behind the Jarl's throne, as James pointed out. If this doesn't happen, leave the building, wait a few in-game hours, then re-enter and make your way up behind the throne, and talk to Balgruuf then.
