David NewtonESPN Staff Writer The Panthers have wasted little time rebuilding their offensive line, agreeing to terms with Cam Erving to presumably play left tackle and Pat Elflein to play right or left guard. Erving, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, got a two-year, $10 million deal with $8 million guaranteed. Elflein got a three-year, $13.5 million deal with six million guaranteed, according to Adam Schefter. With RT Taylor Moton getting the franchise tag the line is starting to take shape for whoever plays quarterback.

Seth WalderESPN Analytics Pat Elflein's pass block win rate at guard was 86.5% in 2020 -- that would have ranked 66th out of 71 players had he qualified. His PBWR at guard in 2019 was slightly lower, 85.9%. He also posted the worst run block win rate among qualifying guards in 2019. (ESPN / NFL Next Gen Stats)

David NewtonESPN Staff Writer Panthers get into legal tampering fast, agreeing to three-year $13.5 million deal with Jets OG Pat Elflein, Adam Schefter reported. Elflein started the final six games at LG last season, so he fills a big immediate need on the offensive line at right or left guard. Originally a third-round pick by Minnesota in 2017 out of Ohio State, where he also played center as a fifth-year senior.

David NewtonESPN Staff Writer The NFL's legal tampering period has begun. Among the Panthers who now are free agents: WR Curtis Samuel, FB Alex Armah, CB Rasul Douglas, TE Chris Manhertz, RB Mike Davis, OG John MIller, LT Russell Okung. Wouldn't be surprised if Manhertz and Miller returned if the price is right. Still feels like a long-shot for Samuel, who should draw a big pay increase.

CAMERON ERVINGT, CAROLINA PANTHERS Panthers signed OT Cameron Erving, formerly of the Cowboys, to a two-year, $10 million contract. The deal includes $6 million guaranteed. The Panthers are making early, tactical signings as they try to shore up their offensive line. 28-year-old Erving had a rough 2020 for the Cowboys' injury-ruined offense line, making just six appearances as he turned in typically shaky play. Even at his best, Erving has never been better than league average, so it is an eye-brow raising opening day signing. Capable of playing both guard and tackle, Erving is an insurance policy for a team that currently has only one starting tackle under contract.

Interesting moves so far, a couple of talented often injured but still young o-lineman
