1-10 percent: Greg Olsen was anonymous for the first six seasons of his career before becoming a bigger part of the offense after his move to Carolina; at 31, he would need to keep this level of play up for several more years to have a shot. ... Ryan Kalil is approaching more serious status after being named a first-team All-Pro twice in three seasons. If he can pull that off again in 2016, his chances would spike to 30 percent or so.

Cam Newton produced a career year in 2015 and won league MVP, and the track record for quarterbacks who win MVP awards is awful good. There are exceptions -- John Brodie, Brian Sipe, Ken Anderson and Joe Theismann all won league MVPs without earning a trip to the Hall of Fame, and Kurt Warner won twice before being turned down this past year -- but Newton's tracking well for a Hall of Fame career through five seasons. Even if he takes a step backward this season, Newton's steady success and nearly unparalleled impact as a running quarterback bode well for his chances. 65 percent

Luke Kuechly didn't make it to the Pro Bowl as a rookie in 2012, which suggests that the Panthers just weren't on television. Since then, he has been selected as a first-team All-Pro three consecutive times. HOF-eligible guys with three All-Pro nods in their first four years since the merger are 9-for-12; the exceptions are Keith Jackson, Terrell Davis (whose career was basically done after his fourth season) and Mike Alstott (who was picked because he was the only fullback with a household name). Kuechly's on another level above those guys. It would be a shocker if he didn't make it to Canton. 85 percent

Good stuff.

If Cam keeps on the trajectory with a SB win (or more) he is a shoe in. I've said it before...as a fan, it's a bit of an eye opener to look at the records Cam has set thus far. I encourage anyone that hasn't to just do a quick google, it's pretty astonishing. 

Edit: to make it easy

In the next 2 years, Cam will secure the title of greatest rushing threat in NFL history at QB.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      By OldhamA · Posted

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
