Teddy is going to be consigned to the dustbin of Panthers QB failures along with Weinke, Lewis, St. Pierre and Collins.

St. Pierre was a Legend and we won’t besmirch his name

DeShaun Watson is not a rookie.

DeShaun Watson does not need "mentoring."

Also, not a possibility.

I would love to be wrong.  I'm not.

Shhhhh.... stirring up poo in the Huddle rumor mill is fun.

My significant other would say Dak Prescott.

(I'm not sure I would but I can't say that out loud)

The list can definitely be a little flexible.  A few qb's get on that list for a couple of years, then fall off of it.  I would say that both Delhomme and Cam were on it for a couple of years.  

Point remains though that its going to be hard to get one.

Week 1, around halftime or so?

not true, he's usually fine until halftime. It's the end of the game that you have to worry about.

Randy Fasani was a poor man's Tony Pike.

It’s worth mentioning that like Russ and Fitterer, Justin Fields has a baseball background as well. 

He’s an athlete.

Randy Fasani is the name you say when somebody starts making too much of a player's outstanding performance in the preseason.

Russell was further along in his development coming into the league than Fields is. If you go back and read Wilson's draft profiles, they are hilarious. Point by point everything you want to see in an NFL prospect but almost all mentioning that he might be too short to play in the NFL. In hindsight, it's extremely goofy to read that kind of stuff. 

I still like Fields but I don't know that I can say he is ready to be a day one starter in the NFL. I think some of the struggles he had this past season with decision making are going to be amplified at the pro level pretty considerably. He just needs some more high level reps to get him there, IMO.

I’m just saying Fields, Fitts and Russ all share baseball backgrounds. Seattle is big on athletics and so is Rhule. There are also parts of playing shortstop that come out when playing QB. It’s also why I can’t see Fitterer and Rhule drafting a guy like Mac Jones.

As far as the other things you said I agree. That OSU offensive scheme doesn’t help either. It was well documented that Haskins needed a year to sit and learn. He didn’t get that which ended up being part of the reason (obviously there’s off the field issues there) he struggled so much.

Isn’t Teddy like 0 for 7 game winning or tying drives with the team?  It sounds like he is officially a placeholder now.

I'd say more like a Clausen wannabe.
