What do we do now with Nate Chandler?

most will probably say we should cut him, and understandably so. however, I'm wondering if he doesn't still have a place on the team. what if we moved him back to guard? didn't he start on the defensive line as a DT?

don't get me wrong, I dont think he should ever be asked to play OT ever again. but I'm curious whether he could benefit this team in another position.

what say you Huddle?

Honestly the kid should be proud he has lasted this long in the NFL as an undrafted DT turned OG/OT. He will have to compete for a job in camp like every other guy, He has flexibility, but he lacks quality play at the positions he has been assimilated into. He has to make a big jump to make the 53.

He's gotta be on the outside looking in right now in terms of getting a roster spot. Right now, we don't need to do anything with him. Bring him to camp and let him compete.

I'm of a similar mindset. I think he is just camp fodder at this point. but I also think that, used correctly, he has a chance to benefit the team. I'm with you. let him compete at multiple positions

What do you mean you what do we do?

 

Have you seen our pathetic OL? Even with the addition of our elite back up OT just drafted? We're still pitiful along the OL. So we keep Chandler, because we don't have anyone better, as sad and unfortunate that is.

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      If someone key is hurt and your bye week helps you by not forcing you to play without them, it is at a good time.  No way to know about that ahead of time.   I would concede that with 17 games and let’s say you are playoff bound, you would love to have it late

      Hate it for him personally and hope he recovers well. But honestly, reaching an injury settlement and moving on would probably be a best case scenario for the Panthers. This signing always felt like a desperate knee-jerk reaction to losing out on Milton Williams. Williams was a logical scheme fit while Wharton just wasn't. He's best used as a rotational interior pass rushing specialist in an even front. He's way too small to play the nose in a 3-4 and he lacks the length and juice to play the end. Healthy he's a nice roster piece in the right scheme at the right price but we overpaid him to play him in the wrong scheme. The signing just never made any sense to me and I said so at the time.

      If I am playing that game I am going to stand with protecting a QB is job one becausew you could have Moss and Rice and they could not be Moss and Rice if the qb couldn’t get the ball to them.  You would be better off with the good protection and average WRs.
