At least Clausen had a decent arm....

The Jets as well I think top us.

1st round pick Mark Sanchez (though he had some early success, somehow has like 4 road playoff wins)

Zack “milfhunter” Wilson at #2 overall 

Christian Hackenburg in the 2nd, actually worse than Clausen because he never even got to play in a game (and wasn’t injured) and was gone after 2 years. 

Other notables include Kellen Clemens, Brooks Bollinger, Erik Ainge, James Morgan, Bryce Petty, Greg McElroy, and Clemson legend Tahj Boyd.

That’s pretty rotten too

Jeff Lewis was the worst QB to ever wear the Panthers uniform. I have never seen anything like it.

Yea but guys like Lewis and Fasani don’t have enough starts to really count.  We went into the season with Clausen penciled in as the dude at QB.  All the other “worst ever” guys were 3rd stringers thrown into action for 1 or 2 games.

The Browns easily top this by how many and how shitty they were. Tim Couch, Brady Quinn, Brandon Weeden and Johnny Manziel all in the first round. Deshone Kizer in the 2nd, Charlie Frye and Cody Kessler in the 3rd. Also includes DTR and Spurgeon Wynn.
 

Three first round picks for Diddy Watson on top of that. Not to mention how many bad qbs from other teams got starts. 

 

I will take a look at it tomorrow and see if I can find the worst 3-4 QB's. I think probably only 1st-3rd round is reasonable.

Which is weird because lefties usually have rockets

It was obvious in college he had a noodle arm.

Lewis performed so poorly he lost his starting job in the preseason after being named starter AND after being traded for a 3rd and 4th round pick.

I have never seen anything like that preseason in 2001. It was insane.

Clausen was another guy that just played with superior talent his entire life so it didn't matter how good he was.  He didn't have a good arm but he also just sucked on the mental aspect.

I still remember writing an angry email to some Panthers email in 2010 about how awful the team was. Jerry fuging Richardson called me lol (along with a few others that had done the same). He blamed it all on Fox hahaah

That's a bonus for them though tbh. 

They threw a second on the chance they might be able to fix him. Hack had all the physical tools, and did look okay his freshman year. 

but then they got a look at him in person and were like "oh my god no" and just kinda forgot he was on the team and quietly cut him lmao

I mean you could at least say that there were no other QBs drafted after Clausen that year that you could really feel like we missed on, Colt Mccoy was probably the best which is uhh not good. But the Jets could have drafted Dak Prescott instead of burning a second on a QB who that many people thought was a day 3 project at the very best.

I had no idea Clausen played for Baltimore.  I thought he went straight into real estate in California once we drafted Cam.....

The funniest thing about Clausen after his Panthers career is that he somehow ended up on the Bears with Fox as the coach and had to start a game when Jay Cutler got hurt. He threw for 63 yards that game which they lost 26-0 and where they punted 10 times.

Dak was off a lot of teams boards because of the DUI. Point stands tho

I think you’d have to expand to 4 rounds at least if you’re including Weinke because that’s where he was drafted

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      By TD alt · Posted

      I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo.

      Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
