Carolina Will Select Cameron Erving With #25

If this guy is there at 25, hes a panther.  I will wager any amount of Arsens money to prove it.  Carolina needs a LT and this guy was born to be an LT and will be staring carolina in the eye sitting there waiting at #25.  He has very little downside.  2 Cams cant be bad, right?  Not to mention, this guy can play center.  Thats a huge plus for any LT.  Having protected the #1 QB and most likely #1 over all pick, Jameis Winston, Erving finally gives Cam some decent protection.

I think he's most fit to be an LT out of all of the OL positions.  He's an everything type which is a good asset to have if let's say Kalil or Turner or Norwell or Remmers or a FA signing go down.  I think there will be better talent available for us at 25 though.

I think Flowers will end up going high in the top 15 range. I that Andrus Peat from Stanford will be on the board when we pick. If Erving is there he could be a solid choice and a Dave Gettleman pick. He has the versatility to play LT as well as Center. I can see that as something the Panthers would put value in. I wouldn't mind Erving or Peat. They both could be solid picks and potential Left Tackles in the NFL.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
