He’s going to have played no meaningful football for 2 straight years. Good times. 

It will also mean that he's basically only played one season of football since HS too.

Which, if he can get healthy and become the player we expected him to be, will extend his shelf life as a RB as he basically will have only played 1 season out of the last 5, so minimal wear and tear on the rest of his body if his knee can hold up.

Just shy of $5 million guaranteed and may never have to play another down in the NFL. Not a bad gig if you can get it.

Meanwhile the guy who went 5 picks later...

 

This reminds me of the 2021 draft when we traded down twice in the 2nd round and passed on several quality o-lineman. We ended up with Terrace Marshall Jr at 58, only to see Creed Humphrey (a future Pro Bowl center) come off the board to KC a couple of picks later. TMJ was a wasted pick...and we will never be able to chalk that up to an unfortunate injury. He was just an over rated player and bad draft decision

Let's be optimistic.  It won't cost us a dime.

Hopefully he makes a full recovery and becomes the player we expected and feels a sense of loyalty to Carolina for sticking with him and believing in him through the darkness.  Maybe we get a loyalty discount on his resigning when he makes a Thomas Davis like comeback.

Still rooting for you Brooks!

    • You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful. 
    • Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.
    • On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
