What are (in your opinions) the biggest draft busts and home runs ever... For the purposes of THIS THREAD AND DISCUSSION this does NOT include players who were injured and their career spiraled due to injury, so leave the Timmy B hate in the cabinet... ALSO, for the purpose of this discussion, UNDRAFTED FAs don't count... Strictly drafted players... +1 it if you agree, -1 it if you don't, but offer why you feel that way too... And if you +/- someone, you have to add a player to the discussion... Try to bring something new... We all know Ryan Leaf is a bust... Doesn't need to be limited to just Panther players...

I'll start it off... One that I had the Panthers drafting in my mock, and was excited to get... I defended him, and called for patience to let him grow into the role... I just knew he was gonna be something special... Well, he was special alright... Especially terrible...

RB Eric Shelton, Louisville, 2nd Round Carolina Panthers

      Jim Caldwell out

      I may be way off base, let’s include this in that questions thread, but with the way the offensive staff turned on each other in 2023 I am happy to see anyone involved, gone. I had a bad feeling about Caldwell over it.

      Rasheed Walker for Kris Jenkins Jr.

      No poo tho you might could Jenkins for Legette. They got nothing at WR after the big 2 in Cincy. I don’t think you trade away OL depth. Could get a quality player in cuts. Really that 3-4 end spot what you should be looking for is someone who is stout with long arms and can push back the OL in both the run and pass game for others to make plays…. But we signed Wharton, sometimes I think Evero is a fraud ass nerd who should be an analyst at best.

      you would honestly probably do Monroe Freeling more of a disservice by putting him in a position where is not yet ready to succeed. .we all knew Monroe Freeling struggled at the NFL combine in drills because of technique related issues & would need time to develop  & now all of a sudden before they even put the pads on Monroe Freeling is somehow a starting LT in the NFL ? if he struggled at the NFL scouting combine what do you actually think is going to happen in a live NFL game at LT ? .even our best LT of all time was not ready to start at LT when he was a rookie & he turned out to be a pretty good darn LT by the name of Jordan Gross ...just saying be patient Young Jedis
