didn't amini play some tackle at d2 sheet rock u or wherever he played

it'd be strangely hilarious if he was a better OT than guard in the NFL

I'm pretty sure the reason he got moved was that his arms are too short for an elite Tackle or some such nonsense like that.  But Amini is nimble for a big guy, so there's actually a chance that could be true.  Also the bar is very low for him to be a better OT than he is an OG, lol.

he was on the PFF all rookie team in 2012

other stuff aside he is a pretty talented athlete.  he just came into the league really raw and seemingly hasn't improved much.

He was playing very well in 2013 before he tore his ACL.  It usually takes two seasons to fully recover from such an injury.

#Panthers' Luke Kuechly misses practice again. Status for #Texans game remains uncertain at best. http://www.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/nfl-blog/article35581614.html …

Black & Blue Review ‏@BlackBlueReview 60m60 minutes ago

Sometimes. Like last week, which was hint to Norwood inactive. RT @BraffordJimmy: @BlackBlueReview Webb WR reps? Does this happen often?

Black & Blue Review ‏@BlackBlueReview 10m10 minutes ago

Rivera: Kuechly did eventually come out on field. “My understanding is he has another stage (before the independent doctor).”

 

Joe Person ‏@josephperson 10m10 minutes ago

Rivera says Luke Kuechly continues doing the protocol "stuff" he needs to do. Says he has another stage he has to pass before independent.

Rivera: Kuechly is “chomping at the bit … he wants to be out there in the worst kind of way.”

 

Joe Person ‏@josephperson 10m10 minutes ago

Rivera: He wants to be out there in the worst kind of way. ... You've got to be careful. Sometimes you have to save him for himself.

 

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReedAP 9m9 minutes ago

Rivera on Kuechly: "We have to be smart about this _ it is a long season."

Steve Reed ‏@SteveReedAP 8m8 minutes ago

Rivera said the Panthers are "scouring the wires" looking for an OT with Nate Chandler now on injured reserve. Amini Silatolu is the backup.

 

Black & Blue Review ‏@BlackBlueReview 9m9 minutes ago

RR on OTs: “We’re scouring wires and really looking.” For now … Amini is primary backup T w/Chris Scott as emergency backup.

 

Joe Person ‏@josephperson 9m9 minutes ago

Rivera says #Panthers scoured free agent market for a tackle. But decided to go with versatility that Velasco brings at guard/center.

 

Bryan Strickland ‏@PanthersBryan 8m8 minutes ago

Rivera says Panthers would bring on an OT if they found the right one but Silatolu will be primary backup following Chandler move to IR

New addition Fernando Velasco knows offense well enough that he could contribute Sunday if need be.
