Not a lot of love for Ereck Flowers out at tackle right now at the combine

Ty Schalter @tyschalter 9h

I'm writing right now and watching Combine in the

background, but I don't see Ereck Flowers showing a lot of

fluidity.

Draft Scout 24/7 @DraftScout247 23h

Really like what I see watching OT Ereck Flowers on film. Massive frame, long arms, quick feet, and keeps his legs moving through contact

thepointofpittsburgh.com Connor Isted @ cdisted 9h

Ereck Flowers looks good so far, especially taking his youth into account. Best natural RT in the draft.

cincyjungle.com Brennen Warner @ JustBeWarned Feb 19

Ereck Flowers fits the Bengals mold for right tackles. Huge.

Better run blocker

Didn't get the amount of love Ereck Flowers was getting pre-

combine and he looked pretty poor in the slide step drill. He's

a guard.

Steelersdepot.com Alex Kozora @Alex_Kozora 7h

Miami's Ereck Flowers downright ugly in kickslide drill.

Incredibly overextended, not on 45 degree angle. Beat bad.

South Florida Sun-Sentinel Omar Kelly @ OmarKelly 12h

Ereck Flowers is today's new Orlando Franklin. Decent at OT,

good at OG IMO. Stiff .

turnonthejets.com Big Bob @thewordofbob31 10m

Ereck Flowers didn't look smooth at all in the drills.

hogshaven.com Paul Conner @ P_Hazard 13h

Looks like my worry about Flowers' kickstep is validated

NFLMocks.com Joe Wedra @ JoeWedra 12h

I may have to re-evaluate Ereck Flowers ' tape after seeing

him today . Not a good performance.

Wade Keyte III @WadeKeyte 12h

Ereck Flowers losing money today

BigBoardDraft.com Seth Murphy @ Sethmurphy4991 Feb 15

Ereck Flowers 1st round hype: I don't get it. I see a Guard .

Todd McShay's thoughts after watching the combine:

Ereck Flowers , OT, Miami (FL): He's a massive right tackle prospect at 6-6, 329 pounds, with long arms (34.5 inches) and excellent strength -- his 37 bench press reps were the most in his class, which is pretty remarkable given how long his arms are. His times weren't great, with a 5.31 40, but not bad when you consider his size. He didn't do the jumps or shuttles, so he'll need to do those at his pro day.

Team fits: Same as Clemmings: Rams (#10), Browns (#12 and #19), Saints (#13), Texans (#16), Lions (#23), Panthers (#25).

(for Clemmings, who he called a "right tackle prospect whose game is built on power in the run game, and who needs work in pass protection," his team fits were: "Any team looking for a right tackle drafting in the 10-25 range. The Rams at No. 10 is probably a little early, but they could be in the mix. The Browns (#12 and #19), Saints (#13), Texans (#16), Lions (#23) and Panthers (#25) also make sense in the first round.")

Jake Fisher is the only prototype LT in the draft IMO.  I think he's going to go a lot higher than people think.  I'd love to have him.

      BREAKING NEWS: Trevin Wallace out for the year

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By trucpfan · Posted

      This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.

      Give Legette another season?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
