we have a great oline with norwell kalil and turner but the revolving doors at tackle make the oline as a whole look like crap !!!. we need to bring in 2 tackles in free agents , they dont have to be no high priced guys but at least a proven starter to compete with williams and oher and to replace that bum remmers  . with a solid oline we seen what cam can do and with a bad oline he plain sucks when hes getting hit every play . we are wasting cams talent seriously hes better off and almost every offense in the nfl other than ours we have legit the worst offense without cam !! get tackles and spend a early pick on a rb we need a running game . we can cut tolbert and restructure stewart to keep as a change of pace because hes too injury prone . just picture cam with an actual running game where he doesn't have to do most of the work and tackles that are half decent . once again im not asking for no joe thomas or tyron smith  just a guy thats an upgrade over oher and remmers .

I will be shocked if the Panthers front office ever addresses the OT position outside of some over priced band aids.

The OT position has not been neglected, it has just had very poor judgement by Gettleman since 2014.

I would not be shocked to see Oher and Remmers remain over paid OTs for the Panthers for the next few seasons.

Not gonna lie, the bust rate of recent 1st round OTs scares me a bit.

We'll have to wait and see where we end up picking, but it wouldn't shock me if Leonard Fournette is the pick depending on how the board falls. 

yea i deff dont want no first rd tackle would rather get one in freeagency

This years FA class is awful sadly.

Honestly, it usually is.  All these recent 1st round bust OTs has a trickle down effect. It seems like it's getting harder and harder to find legit starting caliber OTs, so they very rarely hit free agency. I think a lot of it has to do with the passing game becoming a bigger and bigger part of the game in general.  All those dropbacks puts a lot of pressure on the OTs and most OTs come out of college more NFL ready in terms of the run game than they are in terms pass protection. The exotic blitz schemes and downright physical freaks at DE and OLB that these guys face at the NFL level is tough to process for them in pass protection. There's a reason why offensive linemen love running the football.  They're the ones dictating the action in the run game. It doesn't matter what the defense is doing, they're the ones on the attack. Pass protection is tougher and requires more athleticism because you're on the defense.  You're largely reacting to what the defense and defender is doing to try to get to your QB. That's a lot tougher of a job.

    • This is a great episode I am soo excited for this season 😀
    • Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets   The Charlotte Hornets are coming off a promising 2025 NBA Draft class and will enter Summer League with no shortage of new faces looking to make an impression. But the most interesting addition didn’t come from the draft board. Instead, it’s DJ Rodman — the 24-year-old son of Hall of Famer and five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman — who’s bringing some extra attention to the Hornets’ Summer League roster. Rodman played four years at Washington State before making the move to USC for his final season.  He wasn’t exactly lighting it up with the Trojans, putting up about 6 points, four boards, and an assist each game. But he did shoot well — hitting around 41% from the field and draining 36% of his three-pointers.  Standing 6-foot-6, he’s got the size to play on the wing and offers some versatility, which could be just what the Hornets are looking for as they try to fill out their roster. The Hornets’ Summer League squad already has plenty of fresh faces with this year’s draft picks and young guys fighting for a role. But Rodman’s last name alone is enough to turn heads, and now he’ll get his shot to prove he belongs once the games tip off in Vegas. Charlotte’s Summer League team is already drawing interest with recent draft picks and young players hoping to crack the rotation. But Rodman’s last name — and his potential to bring energy and toughness — adds another layer of intrigue. What Rodman lacks in college stats, he makes up for with hustle and competitiveness — traits his dad was known for throughout his Hall of Fame career. If he can bring that same energy and show growth in Summer League, he could carve out a role and surprise some people. Though the odds are against him making the Hornets’ final roster, there’s no denying the spotlight that comes with the Rodman name. The Hornets kick off Summer League next week in Las Vegas.   Dennis Rodman’s son lands Summer League shot with the Hornets
