Vernon Butler and Armanti Edwards are the first to come to mind. I’m sure there are others equally deserving but my memory ain’t what it used to be. 

and I definitely wouldn’t say Otah. He was a beast the one year, then he got hurt. It happens. 

Edwards is just one of those picks you can never forget.

Jeff Otah has to be on that list.

Vernon Butler never gets mentioned, but is definitely Top3

Jimmy Clausen and Armanti Edwards should tie for 3rd. 

Hey how bout Eric Shelton?

 

Edit, he was well covered on page 2.

Otah's career wasn't "derailed by injuries".

He got the same typical bumps and bruises that EVERY player gets, then used it as an excuse to kick his feet up and do nothing for months on end. He wouldn't play through the pain or put any effort into rehab. His heart just wasn't in football. All of this was already well documented before we traded a truckload of picks to move up to get him.

I still remember that he had a minor injury at the very beginning of training camp that was suppose to sideline him for about 2 weeks, but should be ready to go by preseason games at the latest. But he didn't even try to rehab or come back, ended up on IR and missed the entire season (LOL)

2000 Rashard Anderson 1st round drug addict

2005 Eric Shelton RB Florida State.  The guy never saw the field.  Terrible pick in the 2nd Round

2007 Dewayne Jarrett WR USC was supposed to be a Keyshawn Clone more like a Keyshawn Clown

2010 Armanti Edwards QB/WR another pick that was such a waste

2019 Greg Little was supposed to be our answer at LT turned out to be worse than Mike Remmers

IMO, the guys who busted largely due to injury are in a different group than the guys who busted because they just outright sucked.

Mentioned elsewhere today, durability at the pro level is damn near impossible to predict.

Dan Morgan is, of course, the prime example of that.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
