​If what you say were true, this would be a very hard part of the roster to figure out. With Igo saying Todman has looked good, the question of Stewart, Fozzy, Todman and CAP makes for a difficult choice. If one were placed on the PS they would surely get snatched by someone.

This is going to be a place where pre-season will be extremely important.

​May be true, BUT Silatolu's cap hit I'd imagine would be higher than Folkert's considering he was a 2nd round pick, and iirc Folkerts is a UDFA with no guaranteed money.

​I wouldn't care of Silatolu had a 12 mill cap hit.  He should not play for us anymore.

Quick question.  I've been mostly offline since yesterday afternoon, and just now had a chance to watch RR's video comments from yesterday about minicamp.  I have a very vague idea of what "installation" is for a team for the offense and defense.

Can someone with more football savvy explain the significance of Ron's words about being able to install both the offense and defense three separate times during OTAs and minicamp?  I'd appreciate it, thanks.

His comments are in this video, beginning at 3:34:  http://www.panthers.com/media-vault/videos/Ron-Rivera-Solid-finish-to-offseason/d0913e83-af3b-42c7-9c77-91c885c95c2d

Nice work.  Curious to know the reason for moving Remmers in and out at center.  I wonder if they think he could be an eventual Kalil replacement, if Williams steps up at RT.  Probably over thinking it though... 

 

Basically two reasons to try this out. One, versatility. He who possesses it has hand, cuz it makes it tougher to get rid of you. Win for the player. Win for the team.

 

Two, what SetfreexX said. Kinda. Folkerts is the incumbent back-up center. but he can also play guard. Then you add in Remmers trying to learn Center. It does kinda make sense that the powers that be may be trying to open up a roster spot by keeping one less O-lineman.

​

​I think it's more can we make Brian Folkerts expendable and carry 9 OL opening a spot up elsewhere on the roster. 

LT-Oher, Martin

LG-Norwell, Silatolu

C-Kalil, Remmers

RG-Turner, Scott

RT-Remmers, Williams

Perhaps a 6th WR, DB, or a 7th LB vs the 6 we carried last year, or a spot strictly for a ST player, or UDFA we don't want to risk on PS. 

​

Yeah, flip out Folkerts for Silautolu and I'm with you.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
