Who were your favorite Panthers preseason warriors (who did nothing in the regular season)


Recommended Posts

Every training camp we start to swoon over someone that we think will be a real difference maker, a legit find, a diamond in the rough, and he ends up doing nothing. It's just how it works. Some guys, like Fasani, end up actually playing a game, but that Tampa game of his might be the worst Panthers QB performance ever, and that's saying a lot.

I think it should be limited to those superstars that never got off the bench, or even made the 53 on game day.

I forget the guy's name but he was a middle linebacker with a blonde mullet in the 2010s.  Classic "sneaky athletic gym rat great kid from a great family nonstop motor" type player who was just all over the field.  I don't think he ever played a snap in a regular season game.

You talking about Mayo? He's still with Ron in DC.

Keep seeing Gettis brought up. He doesn’t really fit the criteria imo. He actually showed he belonged in the regular season his rookie year, with awful QB play. 
 

He just blew his knee and never got back to that. 
 

Him producing in real games at 6’4” with 4.3 speed, and then getting hurt is why so many were hyped for him, and why he is a panther meme for “late round potential gems.”

    • To all the analysts who said "Caps in 5", thank you for telling us their departure time.
    • We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.
