The Panthers traded DJ Moore, two first round picks, two second round picks and passed on CJ Stroud for a guy who couldn’t even make it through 19 games before being benched.
Trubisky might be equal or worse. Bears traded up from #3 to #2 and they gave up way too many assets in the trade to get him. They passed on Mahomes, one of the 5 best QB’s ever.

They have a new HC, if you make him play Bryce how do you even evaluate if he's a good coach? [Reply]
Didn't like him coming out of college but it's not all his fault. That team has nothing to help him. Even the statement is stupid. Bryce is our guy, but he's benched is about a stupid as it gets. The owner is a moron just doing whatever he wanted and taking Young [Reply]
How many guys on Carolina are even legit NFL players? The only guy they have that can even be considered a difference maker is Derrick Brown and he's injured. [Reply]
Tua, Mac Jones, Bryce Young… Alabama QB’s who look like shit in the NFL when not playing with vastly superior offensive talent compared to their competition.
Same will be true of Carson Beck at Georgia. [Reply]

Carson Becks problem is he looks like a heroin zombie. [Reply]
The all time worst NFL bust is Jamarcus Russell. The Raiders spent 68 million with 32 million guaranteed so this bonehead could gorge on chimichanga's and get high on cough syrup. Bryce is just not able to play the position and it's not because he's devoid of talent or motivation. He's just a little dude and looks like a child.

I think it is a Zack Wilson situation where the dude is completely mentally broken. He looked like he was going to break down and cry on the sidelines. It’s hard to feel bad for a multi millionaire but at the same time it’s the panthers fault for drafting him.
At this point I think you also do it to avoid mutiny because the panthers offense could be halfway decent with a good qb. Their defense however is fucked with the Derek brown injury . The Jets last year are a good example of how easily you can lose the team by dooming them to certain defeat. [Reply]
There are 75 guys in D-I, if not more, who could have done what he did at Bama. There's a reason why jabrones like Ken Dorsey, Gino Torretta, and Landry Jones were never taken seriously as pro prospects, and it's why Sam Bradford never should have been. When you have years to throw to guys who are impossibly open and a devastating running game to lean on, you don't have to be good to be successful. [Reply]
This dude is approaching DeMarcus Russell/Ryan Leaf-level of being a total bust.
So glad Clark stays out of draft decisions (as far as I'm aware of, anyway). An idiotic move like that draft pick is going to realistically set the Panthers back 5-10 years. [Reply]
