Top Non 1st Round LT Prospects

That is my main contributor to saying it's a weak class. You know everyone here will poo their pants if we don't draft an OL in the first two rounds. And if we draft later they will whine about another project OL.

In the majority of Huddlers eyes the Panthers are in a lose lose situation. That's why I firmly believe in BPA doesn't matter the slot. 


BPA within reason...

If DG is true to his word, we will have a LT in FA.

Fill your needs in free agency...

The question is if he signs somebody that is a couple years stopgap or opens the wallet to fix the problem on a longer term basis.

DG was high on the play from the makeshift OL at the end of the season... I just hope that doesn't make him forget how much Remmers sucks.

Don't put words in my mouth. There's a difference between calling him stupid and saying it's a stupid decision. This is a football message board, he can do whatever he wants with his life. It is a very, very bad decision. What could he possibly gain? He's finished 4 years at Notre Dame, so not education. His team sucks balls and is losing their QB, so they will not compete for anything next year. He's graded out in the 1st round and ranked in the top 15 in many sites as the top tackle, so he's got nothing to gain draft wise. He's losing out on millions for his career and potentially getting hurt and dropping way down.

Also, I didn't call him scared. That said, it absolutely does raise questions about his desire to go to the next level. You have guys coming out as red-shirt sophomores. He's going to go into next years draft as a red-shirt senior and he can't convince scouts that he was going back for a shot at an NC.

Absolutely.  The NFL is obviously a MULTI-billion dollar business.  Within the business Cam Newton represents the singular biggest asset as a player based on age, position, and skill set.  He has been signed to a $100+ million deal and represents many more millions in advertising dollars, as well as fans and the region as a whole.  He is Jerry Richardson's last chance at a ring.  I don't know about the 1.3+ billion people in China, but here in the United States and certainly elsewhere as well, there are HUNDREDS of millions of people that want to destroy Cam Newton in a literal and figurative sense.  The only thing more insane than Mike McGlinchey's decision to go back to school, would be our decision not to critique it or to blindly entrust him to protect our franchise.

Bolles is now being mocked in the 1st. FML

My 1st round target is now being mocked top 5 to make matters worse. 

http://walterfootball.com/draft2017.php

I have been telling people that Bolles may be the top pure LT in this draft. He is by no means a slam dunk. A lot is going to depend upon his workouts and the Combine for this "late bloomer" with an off-field history largely pre-Utah (where he only played a year). He's relatively old too, but one would hope to get a decade out of him.

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Week 16 - Other NFL Games

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
