THIS! A couple of them were drafted even! I would still love to see at least one drafted this year for the first time since we've had Gettleman here.

the Giants only spent one pick high in the draft on an oline while Getts was there. I know he wasn't the GM but his opinion was definitely listened to. He feels oline can be built on scheme more than individual talents. He looks for a certain kind of guy. Team players.

And they drafted pass rusher after pass rusher. They were stacked at the position and kept drafting more.

This can let us draft a more risky tackle in the draft. Like in the first or second and if he isn't healthy at the beginning of the season.

 

totally agree. also gives us the freedom to choose a long term prospect guy instead of a guy we have to count on starting from day one. this gives us the ability to develop someone long term (that is if one or both of these two guys isn't a long term solution).

This is a low risk high reward move. Getts!

To Gettleman, this is like finding a slightly used pair of coaching shorts at a consignment sale. If he pulls them up past his nips and they show too much moose knuckle, the hell with it. He's only out a few dollars.

This guy, this guy right here, he gets it.

Sounds like an advertising slogan.

Ask Igo if The Huddle needs a new tagline.

I think that this site is faster than every site on the Internet about what's happening with the panthers is proof enough.

Panther thoughts faster than the speed of thought. Sums up the entirety of this site.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By dep · Posted

      Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4

      The ickey ekwonu question...

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.

      Evero and the pass rush

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
