After giving up a league-high 40 sacks and posting the 56th-best pass block win rate as an offensive tackle (84.5%) from 2019 to 2021, Taylor gave up only six sacks and finished 37th in pass block win rate among offensive tackles (88.8%) this past season.

Looks like he had a decent season, but struggled before that. Regardless he made Brown expendable… 

They gave him a contract for four years, 80 million.

He'd best not struggle now

Wait who did the Chiefs get? I’m having trouble keeping up!!

Jawaan Taylor from the Jags.

I don't know for sure if that's an upgrade but that's who they got.

I'm going to take Hubbards 4.9 over Blackshears 3.3 any day 

Blackshear also does returns and can actually catch a pass.

They sure did get rid of all our previous QBs in a hurry lol minus Corrall 

He likely would have been out of the league in 2020 if Rhule hadn't signed him here.

Hell, he was on the verge of being released last offseason before Donald got hurt. Then Mayfield got hurt and he made the most of his opportunity.

Even with that though, the chances of him sticking around post-Rhule were always slim.

Never let your great LT become a FA…

They never officially released him.

Sanders, Hubbard (I think he is a decent 2nd back), and probably a mid/late draft pick. All should have a nice OL to run behind.

I'd keep Sanders, Foreman and Blackshear myself.

Maybe a fourth guy on the practice squad.

Double Trouble Redux? And people thought Marty had left the building.

Duce Staley talked in his presser about needing "a stable" of runningbacks these days to keep the wear and tear down on the individual backs.

From the sware jar.

They need a separate just for Duce Staley.

Soooo  are we really rolling with Derrick Brown at NT or will we get another huge Hog Molly outside of McCall. 
 

Derrick Brown at NT is such a waste isn’t it ?  Nose tackle or 1 techniques purpose is to eat up blocks. I guess he could rotate to nose on obvious passing downs but yikes it seems like we need another big true nose. 

It's been confirmed Derrick Brown will be playing one of the DE spots

In on every deal…

I didn't realize just how literally he meant that

Valid question...though Matt Rhule being gone is a very good thing, so...

Neither one is official. They're not a mouthpiece employed by Tepper like a certain other former beat writer. You could have just posted the tweet. You didn't have to add it's official as if Newton's word had any actual weight with the team.

 

Relax! I'm just busting your chops a little.

How am I responsible for who the Panthers draft? Sounds like someone looking to blame me because the Panthers may not draft their qb.

Man up, Jon

I think you have to be very comfortable with at least one of the QBs and probably two to make the trade they did.

I think they probably have an idea, but aren't yet 100% sold on who they will take.

What if you were only convinced on one of them, and then running up to the draft you discovered something that would take them entirely off your board?

Being open to more than one isn't a bad thing.

If I am wrong, and they draft Levis and he goes full Ryan Leaf on us, blame Jon Snow.

I'm on board with this
