It shows you what limited resources will get you.

There are not 32 starting caliber LTs in the nfl. When you scrimp, you end up with a bunch of shitty options.

 

Sorry. Don't accept that premise. A rookie salary isn't that much, and for 2 years, the FO completely ignored the Tackle position in the draft.

 

Pretty soon the FO won't have salary cap as an excuse anymore. So they better start getting it together.

Both Bell and Chandler are abominations of tackles. Both have to be statistically in the top 5 worst starting tackles in the NFL. 

 

Man you ain't never lied. I don't know what the coaches were thinking trying to convince themselves and the fans that these two were the answer. SMH

Weren't they in a close battle for the starting job in Training camp? ?

Didn't Dave extent him??

Now Foucat is the starting LT in a national televised division game??

Un drafted Canadian is protecting the franchise's blind side?? How scary is this poo??

I think the battle for LT was never close, it was always going to be Bell starting. Chandler was thrown out there to make it look like a competition because of the fan perception of Bell.

I think the Panthers thought Chandler had a shot. But he missed a lot of TC. The Panthers were wrong for thinking he could get the job done though.

Actually, there is a reason--you want at least one tackle to be familiar with his position.  Throw in Norwell, and you would have 3 players new to their spots.  Did not read the entire thread, so if i am repeating someone, I apologize.

 

That is why I hated moving Wharton out to T when Gross went down.  We were below average at LT and LG.  A huge target for defensive coordinators.

      Would you take a chance on Cam Ward?

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      I think where they would be picked if redrafted before both classes have played enough football to really tell.  Baker literally looked like a washout with us after Cleveland gave up on him, then turned world beater with the Rams, got a prove it deal with the Bucs and has looked awesome ever since. Asking where Ward would’ve went had he went in ‘24 is just stupid.  I’m no GM, but I wouldn’t have taken Williams #1 either.  I would’ve taken Joe Milton way higher than he went.  I think Shadeur should’ve been a first round pick this year.  Point being, opinions are like buttholes, everybody has one.  It’s my opinion that Ward has that “something special.”  I get that feeling that he’ll be an even better pro than he was a collegiate QB because of whatever that quality is.  I think he’s gonna surprise a lot of people, especially being such an under appreciated first overall pick.

      Where do we get our T-shirts and hats? Pretty sure this is the first championship ever in professional basketball or football in Charlotte!

      Nice turnaround for Kon.  I’m still a little worried about his ability to create for himself and others, but it was SL.  Come regular season, he will playing a much different role and shots will be there for him.  He showed some reason for hope - and not just him, but the whole squad.  I suppose for the first time ever, we have drafted and acquired enough young talent that we actually not only competed for once, but won the whole thing in summer league.     Kon, Simpson, and Sims made all the difference.  Almost every year prior I felt we always struggled because we usually didn’t have a floor general/real PG to get us into offense.  This was such a breath of fresh air.  And look at us!  We finally are champions!😂
