The Panthers cannot go wrong if they select one of the three top rated tackle prospects or the Iowa Center,Linderbaum, a franchise type player at that position. IOL TYLER LINDERBAUM, IOWA The best center prospect we’ve seen in the PFF College era. He was already the highest-graded center in the country in 2020, but he has taken his game to new heights in 2021, earning a 95.3 overall grade.

Yes,I feel we could trade down to even 12th and pick up one of the top 3 offensive tackles or the top center. PFF Big Boards Overal Top Ten Prospects have these OL men in the 2022 NFL Draft as follows : #5 OT Neal Alabama # 6 Center Linderbaum Iowa # 9 OT Gross Miss. State #10 OT Ekwonu N.C. State

Plus,most Pro Scouts have Neal rated as an NFL Right Tackle not Left Tackle.

That makes sense and i feel it would be the logical thing to do but i will not be surprised if the Panthers trade back to obtain more draft picks.

Antonio Brown’s career in the NFL is most likely over. It’s hard to imagine another team would give the 33-year-old an opportunity and risk all the drama he brings. Still, Brown should get the benefit of various mental health services the NFL offers players and team personnel. The league and the players’ union have plenty of resources available for anyone who needs it — if they ask.

Brown was asked to enter the game twice by coaches and refused both times. He claimed he had an injured ankle and that was when he was removed from the team. However,his ankle seemed to be just fine when he was doing jumping jacks in the end zone as he was leaving the field.

The place a player is selected in the NFL Draft is not always an indication that being drafted low is fool proof or high a mistake. Two good examples we can relate to among many,many others is Greg Little being taken early and and Sam Darnold being selected third overall by the New York Jets in the 2018 NFL Draft.

Rhule is completly clueless when it comes to evaluating players,especially offensive linemen. He must not have watched Brady Christensen become a consensus All American while doing a bang up job at left tackle for BYU. I was surprised Christensen lasted so long in the draft and thought he was a steal going to the Panthers 70th overall in the 3rd round of the draft, since a lot of scouts were comparing him to the Chiefs Eric Fisher.

If the Panthers trade back to pick up more draft choices and no blue chip left tackle is available i want them to select: Tyler Linderbaum*, C, Iowa Height: 6-3. Weight: 290. Projected 40 Time: 5.1. Projected Round (2022): 1-2. View Ranking History 12/11/21 : Linderbaum is a very polished and well-rounded player. The 6-foot-3, 290-pounder plays with good leverage and demonstrates advanced hand placement. He is able to sink his hips to anchor against bull rushes while showing quickness and agility to adjust to speed. Linderbaum looks like a safe pick to become a quality starter in the NFL, and he could be selected in the back half of the first round if he enters the 2022 NFL Draft.

I am in no way defending Sam Darnold because i feel his highest upside in the NFL would be in a backup role. However, note that Tom Brady, the G.O.A.T., was shaky and inept when New Orleans Saints turned the heat up and got to him the last time they played Tampa Bay. Only a hand full of NFL QB's can thrive when the pass rush pressure is put on them, so until the Panthers offensive line problem is fixed, it would be foolish to think they can somehow find a quarterback that will have success playing behind the current one.

That just about sums the Panthers sitution up perfectly.

You are correct. Skill positions are important but football games are won or lost in the trenches. The Panthers defensive line is still somewhatl weak against the run and you know the deal on the below average offensive line.

What is the name of the QB that in your opinion that could win a championship at the NFL level, but won't be among the first 5 QBs selected?

I am UNC diehard fan also and i don't want him.

Bingo. No QB is going to succeed with the Panthers until they get a quality NFL type offensive line. To think outherwise would be foolish.

It would be nice to aquire Willis if the Panthers did not presently need a quality QB that can start right away and positions to fill on the offensive line, sadly they don't have that option.

Bank of America stadium was build on the site of a former Junk and Scrap Metal yard. During early works the stadium was named Carolinas Stadium, a name still in use for events that require no commercial branding, like for FIFA football games. Already before opening Ericsson bought naming rights for the stadium for a decade, which was later followed by an even longer deal with Bank of America. Sadly,it seems that Tepper is allowing Rhule and his ineptness to take the team and stadium back to its roots and become worthy of being a Junk and Scrap Metal type operation once again.

R.I.P. Dan Reeves. John Madden and Dan Reeves passing so close together, creates a double sadness for all NFL fans.

I agree that Malik Willis has a lot of talent and upside potential . If the selecting team gives him time to develop, they may be highly rewarded for it.

But he looks so comfortable in the pocket.

I think that Panthers fans just saw Cam's last home hurrah the previous Sunday against Tampa Bay.

Jerry Richardson is probably thinking :" I know I made some mistakes by playing favorites with certain players and trusting Marty Hurney to much but the way Teppers is allowing that clown, Matt Rhule, to fug up the team I was responsible for bringing to the Carolinas really blows my mind."

I agree with your take on Malik Wilson. With good NFL coaching he will learn to override the big-play mentality he presently has. Willis possesses borderline-ideal traits for a modern day, dual-threat NFL quarterback. He has the potential to be a game-changer at the next level, given time.

It is a sure "Death Toll" when the National Media starts to circle a coach like a bunch of vultures. Goodbye Rhule, thankfully, we hardly got to know you.
