Panthers were one pick away from Justin Herbert...

[PantherBoy95]

I'm just now looking this up, and realizing it after reading the 'What will be Rhule's biggest regret' thread....and man, idk if there would've been any way to trade up. Just imagine though, the franchise trajectory with Herbert at QB.

 

Instead we got.....Derrick Brown lol

 

 

(I guess I should expect everyone to say Rhule would've ruined him too )

[Jackie Lee]

Yup he'd be 3rd string behind whoever would be above PJ

Rhule and his merry band of poo stained coaches would have ruined him. End of discussion.

[DJ feed me moore]

could have easily given up our 3rd to the lions... whatever.

Don't forget about Slater, he might be 2nd string LG behind god knows who we would have starting in that situation

Every Rhule 1st rounder has started from Week 1 but okay bro lol.

this is already discussed and well known. Hurney actually did want to go get Herbert but idiots didn’t want to trade capital and he didn’t fall to us.

let this be a lesson for all the anti tankers. Literally one or two games and we’d be set with a franchise qb.

hell the entire cam Newton era was a result of a blatant tank by JR, though more so for business reasons, but still.

I don't follow as closely as I once did; but I actually don't hear about this topic as much as I'd expect. For a franchise that's had this much QB failure lately, to miss out on what looks to be one of this generations elite QB's by one pick...  Maybe everyone has tried to block it out

Ok maybe he'd have got stuck starting at LG instead of being the Pro Bowl LT we've been seeking ever since Gross retired. Obviously he didn't value him at all but do your thing 

 

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

He would have busted 100% if he played for Rhule

This.

It didn't matter if we had gotten him or the best QB in any other draft.

 

With this Coaching staff, the end result will always be either failure for the QB or the IR.

Every qb-needy team in the league misjudged Herbert, or they would have traded up for him. This includes the Chargers. Allen, Mahomes, Lamar, the list goes on to prove the most important factor in picking a QB is luck.

Rhule certainly has enough really proven faults, you don't have to make extra ones up.

lol ok!

[Whoops]

Most of these Herbert threads have people thinking he was available when we chose Brown.  This is nice for a change, even though it sucks.
