All-time worst Panther starters?


Cyberjag

Recommended Posts

There's an entertaining thread on this at Reddit, where you choose your team's all time worst starting line-up.  The only condition is that you have to choose players who actually started enough games to be considered a starter (so Brian St. Pierre is out, but Clausen's in play).

 

What do you think the Panthers would be?

A defense that would make any offense look good...

DE: Jason Peter, Chuck Wiley

DT: Nick Hayden, Sione Fua

LB: Lester Towns, Na'il Diggs, Hannibal Navies

CB: Sherrod Martin, Rashard Anderson

FS: Haruki Nakamura

SS: Damien Richardson

I think Martin would have done well as a CB tbh. He was too weak and soft to play safety but he was okay in coverage. He struggled in tackling and run support.

Worst DE is probably Ray Seals. We signed him as a free agent in 97 (if I remember correctly) and he was terrible.

 

He was good in Pittsburgh, but he was around 100 years old by the time he got to Carolina.  Which makes me think of another topic that I've often wondered about, and that's how good Capers was when he wasn't in charge of personnel and just focused on coaching.

In no particular order:

 

QB - Jimmy Clausen (goes without saying)

HB - Lamar Smith/2005 Stephen Davis (both averaged 3.5 YPC)

WR - D.J. Hackett, Rae Carruth, Louis Murphy, Dwayne Jarrett

LT/RT - Byron Bell

DE - Jason Peters

DT - Sione Fua, Ron Edwards

K - Justin Medlock
KR/PR - Joe Adams

    • After some of the calls last year probably won't see much of a drop off 
    • https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/48344034/nfl-begin-hiring-replacement-officials-given-state-negotiations-nfl-referees-association   Honestly fug these refs and their union. Resisting changes that would actually incentivize good performance and not seniority based systems. What a bunch of donkeys. Hope the replacements straight up take their jobs and never give them back. Sick of watching refs script games with no repercussions.
    • Donovan seems like highest risk to me. Lloyd and May have already established relationships with all these kids. There’s probably guys hitting the portal that they recruited from HS. And then there’s the possibility of transferring their own guys from their current teams. They’ve also been recruiting the HS kids for like the next 5 years already. Look at the Iowa coach who hit the ground running by transferring all his guys from his D2 program. Or going across sports to Cignetti transferring all his JMU guys year one then building off that to a national title year 2. Donovan is starting from square one having been in the NBA so long and he’s already 60. So you’re potentially punting year 1 for a guy you are just hoping to be a 10 year hire while you figure out how to actually develop your next home grown 20yr guy. That’s 1/10th of the time you have him, more or less at best. The hope would be that he would find some high level assistants who have been working the college recruiting trails already, but then are you giving up his ideal staff just to get a foothold in recruiting and transfers. Think Belichick year one was bad? Imagine how much worse it would be without Steve Belichicks transfer portal pulls. Hoping Mays or Lloyd are all they’re cracked up to be.
