More athletic, stronger.

Gross had average at best ability, but his technique was steller.

Which is why he was such a good consistent tackle, even on the left side when most experts thought he could only be on the right.

Love Oher's talent. Don't know why anybody wouldn't. He's back with one of the best line coaches in the league.

I like that.

If ya don't, I don't care.

Piss off.

Looks like you're on the left-handed and answer on the roster train..

Choo...Choo....smh

you can't compare interior linemen to tackles.sure i agree that they have to coheisevely form a unit,but they are entirely two different animals.

no doubt Turner and Norwell are two studs and DG did deserves credit

but the same can't be said for our tackles Chandler,Remmers,Bell,Kugbila and Oher.

You're lumping Remmers in with that crew? Did you watch last year?

And let's be clear. Bell and Chandler were here before Gettleman was hired. Heck, Bell's been here since 2011.

The knock on Oher coming out of college was his technique and awareness. His technique was pretty bad at times and would sometimes block the wrong person as though he didn't know what play was being run. Physically he's a freak of nature. If he were more intelligent he could make the Pro Bowl imo, but so far he's been a disappointment. He plays like he's lazy and doesn't want to exert the effort to use proper technique. It's my guess that Gettleman is seeing that and thinking "if I can get him to fight and work hard he'll be amazing!" Yeah well good luck, but we need a plan b.

i like Remmers and thought he did a heck of job last season.but i believe he is best suited to play on the left side as a backup.

and why did DG decide to keep Bell and Chandler these past two seasons?they could have both been easily cut without hardly any monetary loss.

Getting a cheap tackle last year was pretty much impossible. Teams overpaid for a lot of guys who turned out to be garbage.

Of the guys that were available, there wasn't really anyone that much better than what we had.

I think that Gman has hit it on spot this time. I think coach Matsko is the key and will get him solid at LT. Seems to me that they are happy with Remmer on the right side. If Oher can hold the left side down I think we will start 2015 off good. If the Offensive line replaces Bell and rolls with Oher at LT the line will have more continuity than replacing both tackles.

I could have taken Ginn or left him. But the thought of putting Ginn and Brown on the outside an KB in the slot sounds very dangerous. Throw in Olsen and now you have four targets that could really hurt you.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
