Just to throw this out there about OLine and the draft..Fisher was a number one pick for KC and he is not playing well.Bell UDFA seems to have had a light come on and is actually playing well at LT. Many where screaming to draft a tackle first.or second round and even as late as the third.Trust in our GM"s philosophy not to reach and get the BPA. Bell may suprise us all this year and we didn't waste a pick on a bench warmer.Pick up some depth after cuts and we may be good to go.

Bell's looked fine recently. Not amazing, not terrible. Which is great for a guy with his story. But the real story should be that Fisher still doesn't look good after a shaky first year. He's heading towards bust.

Matt Kalil, Lane Johnson, Joeckel, now hopefully Matthews, have all had performance or injury issues. Even DJ Fluker looked like crap in their first preseason game. We all want a young stud OT but we have definitely dodged some bullets considering what we did get in these drafts.

Also like to point this out. When the guy everyone claims is terrible now has everyone claiming he is playing "adequate", that means he is actually playing great.

The same compliment Cam haters use if he had a 400yrd 5td game.

I am glad Bell is finding success at the LT. Hopefully better than his attempted Photo Bomb.

Real Question: How many Huddler spit takes will there be when he commands a new contract on a good season?! Uh oh..

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
