The NFL Network recently compiled a list of the 100 best players in NFL history, as selected by a blue-ribbon panel. This is not that list.

http://deadspin.com/5690535/the-bottom-100-the-worst-players-in-nfl-history-part-1?skyline=true&s=i

63. Rae Carruth; wide receiver; Panthers; 1997-99: Carolina's 23rd all-time leading receiver ran dreadful routes when he wasn't allegedly hiring a hitman to kill his girlfriend.

59. Chris Weinke; quarterback; Panthers, 49ers; 2001-07: Started 15 games as a 29-year-old rookie and reminded many of another Heisman winner — the immortal Gino Torretta. Started only four more games before his retirement after '07.

53. Curtis DeLoatch; cornerback; Giants, Saints, Panthers; 2004-07: Save for covering and tackling, awfully good.

25. Rashard Anderson; cornerback; Panthers; 2000-01: Made Deion Sanders look physical. An indefensible first-round blunder.

And just for laughs, this guy made the list, too. And I was at this game.

51. Kenyatta Walker; offensive tackle; Buccaneers; 2001-06: Once, while facing Julius Peppers, had three false starts called on the same down.

Walker was a huge bust and a below average RT, but no where near one of the 100 worst players ever. He was an ok RT during his peak.

Trust me on this- after Walker got called on 3 consecutive false starts he only became further agitated and actually, towards the end of that game, went after Peppers and tried to start a fight with him. Walker ended up getting benched and it was one of the biggest player meltdowns I've ever seen on a football field.

yeah i was at that game too. after the 2nd one.. i was just staring at him the whole time and you could tell he was going to do it again. Peppers owned walker so hard for like 4 years.

you mean the one where he broke about 5-6 tackles on a 2-3 yard run?

That's the one I still watch on DVD when things get tough. Not because I had a man-crush on Foster, quite the contrary, I can most liken him to Dwayne Jarrett- all the potential, just never quite got there.

But that one run epitomizes guts, determination, will and heart more than a few gazillion football plays I've seen in my many years. And Willig was out in front of it... until Foster went by him. To this day when I watch that play I get a chill and my eyes well up just a bit. Ranks right up there with the X-Clown Steve Smith 2-OT victory catch over the Rams.

I can't say it gets me as emotional as you do, but it is very motivational.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
