One of the most craziest things I’ve seen happen is Daryl Williams.

At the beginning of the season, he was disappointing, falling below my expectations and looking like a downgrade from Remmers. However, as time went on, he did a complete 180 and finished off the year in dominant fashion.

In a recent ranking list from NFL1000, Daryl Williams finds himself sitting as a top 3 RT in the NFL.

3. Daryl Williams, Carolina Panthers

Pass Protection: 19/25
Run Block: 17/20
Power: 20/25
Agility: 16/20
Position Value: 8/10
Overall Grade: 80/100

Carolina's Daryl Williams took a huge step forward with consistent performance, which earned him second-team All-Pro honors. The third-year man out of Oklahoma has established himself as a powerful run-blocker while also proving to be a more than adequate pass protector. Despite his massive frame (6'6", 330 lbs), Williams showed the efficiency in his pass set, foot quickness and range to bookend against some of the NFL's most explosive edge-rushers while also displaying the body control, mobility and lateral agility to recover when defenders moved him off his spot. 

Williams flashed dominant moments in the running game, generating good power at the point of attack to quickly strike, leverage and drive defenders off the line of scrimmage. In past seasons, Williams' conditioning seemed to be his limiting factor. That was not the case in 2017. 

—NFL1000 OT Scout, Duke Manyweather

Built like a fireplug, Williams uses his quick feet to gain the advantage right from the snap. He's able to jump into the right gap to protect or run-block, and as long as he keeps his feet active and under control, he's hard to move. Williams has the potential to move even higher up this list as an ideal fit in Carolina's power-based schemes. 

—NFL1000 Lead Scout Doug Farrar

Crazy how inconsistent our running game was with Williams, Turner, and Norwell.

It's because Turner had a down year this past year.  Probably because Kalil was out and its hard to get used to playing next to a guy that, while good, was not up to Kalils level.

So, we have a ton of money tied up in the Oline, but the 2 best players, Norwell and Williams are cheeeeeeeap , at the moment.  Norwell and Williams both gonna get expensive real soon

Norwell is gone, Both Kalil’s will be off the books after 2018. We’re going to see three new guys on that line after 2018 (sans Turner and Williams)

My guess says Moton will be tried out at LT, we will draft a guard to replace Norwell, Larsen will replace Kalil. Turner and Williams remain in their spots.

Big changes are coming in 2019. 

I really hope they let moton have a shot at the job in TC. I’d like to see Kalil benched. It’s not smart or feasible to cut him, but there is no reason we shouldn’t give the young guy a chance at some reps.

He really wasn't, you just hated on his ass for no apparent reason. No matter what you think, Turner was pretty average this year. Williams was keeping that right side going. LOL.

I think that had more to do with scheme rather ham personnel. It seemed like in pre season we ran Cmc correctly; lots of misdirection, pulling tackles or guards etc. in the regular season we just ran him straight up the middle several times.

      Bleacher report not buying Panthers’ hype

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Well, everyone is a critic.  not much meat on the bone here in analysis but if the team needs motivation … lol   I have also heard a lot of talking head or two say that ‘Young is not in the same class as most of these teams and that in 12 of the 17 games he is the lesser QB   BR write up below  2025 record: 8-9 Last season, the Carolina Panthers made the playoffs for the first time since 2017. They won the division. Bryce Young made strides, throwing for 3,011 yards, 23 touchdowns and 11 interceptions with a 63.6 percent completion rate. Wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan won the 2025 Offensive Rookie of the Year award. In free agency, the Panthers signed edge-rusher Jaelan Phillips and linebacker Devin Lloyd to bolster their middling defense. Carolina can win with complementary football if the offense continues to trend in the right direction. In 2026, Carolina will play the AFC North and NFC North on a first-place schedule, which includes matchups against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Philadelphia Eagles, Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, and the Seattle Seahawks. The club will have a much tougher 17-game slate than it had last year, which may lead to regression. The Panthers aren't on the same level as the league's top teams. We'll see the gap between them and division-winning clubs from the previous season. 2026 projection: 6-11

      Panthers 2026 schedule

      If someone key is hurt and your bye week helps you by not forcing you to play without them, it is at a good time.  No way to know about that ahead of time.   I would concede that with 17 games and let’s say you are playoff bound, you would love to have it late

      Turk Wharton Neck Surgery

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Hate it for him personally and hope he recovers well. But honestly, reaching an injury settlement and moving on would probably be a best case scenario for the Panthers. This signing always felt like a desperate knee-jerk reaction to losing out on Milton Williams. Williams was a logical scheme fit while Wharton just wasn't. He's best used as a rotational interior pass rushing specialist in an even front. He's way too small to play the nose in a 3-4 and he lacks the length and juice to play the end. Healthy he's a nice roster piece in the right scheme at the right price but we overpaid him to play him in the wrong scheme. The signing just never made any sense to me and I said so at the time.
