Titans complete OT switcheroo with Panthers, sign Byron Bell

That's good for us as far as compensatory picks are concerned

 

Still would need 1 more of our UFAs to sign in the next few weeks and then Hardy to appeal his suspension and end up playing 10 games. Not looking good...

A Byron Bell , Michael Oher swap is so fitting, because its a

lateral move for each team.

Bell may not be a super star, but he would be a major upgrade over Oher.

Bell will be an upgrade over Michael Oher

I'm not sure there is worse than Oher. Bell and Oher may be the same but Oher was horrible

Paul Kuharsky @ PaulKuharskyNFL

the Panthers think Michael Oher is better than Byron Bell

Patrick @ TennessyXO

The Panthers didn't have to watch Oher's protective instincts fail play after play

personal take on Bell...You know when a team signs Oher to replace you you gotta really suck

TitansReport.com: Bell visiting Titans

- Panthers fans absolutely hate the guy. When it comes to OL fans almost always get it right in terms of who they hate. Keep this guy far away.

-Bell would have to line up in a 4 point stance to be worse than Oher.

-If Bell is signed..it will only verify that Webster learned nothing from the Oher mistake...

-Mike Keith was just on the Midday 180 talking about Bell. ... saying that he played poorly on the left side but was decent at times on the right side. 

- It is beyond obvious that they are just going to have to draft someone on day 2 to start at RT. They simply can not afford to make another mess like Oher. You don't sign a guy to start just because he is a veteran. If he sucked before, he will continue to suck.

I wonder what those folks would be saying if they'd watched the last 4 years of Panthers games.

    • 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
