Panthers bringing in O-lineman for visit

Interior utility type guy. They might believe he's worked his way up to a shot at starting or maybe he's just good depth (probably the latter). Likely a better prospect than Banner, at least.

Where he played his college ball is a plus. Nebraska loves big, road grading linemen.

He has starting experience and is only 26--

Here is my philosophy on free agency, and I am thinking of making my own brand of NFL fortune cookies, with my bits of wisdom tucked within the somewhat stale, lightly-sweetened clam shell of wisdom.

If you pay full price for a brand name star, he usually underperforms the contract.  Some of that is due to the new system and team chemistry/supporting cast.

If you pay discount prices for people entering their primes who possess the skill set the position in your system needs, you often find bargains.

This guy could compete at LG.  Not the only move.

You will be told by a stranger something that will change your mock draft today.

I love bringing in this type of guy. Swing lineman with starting experience? Likely to add solid depth for cheap? About to hit his prime so still has room to improve? Yes please. 

Think of how many OL we release that go on to have long careers with other teams--even pro bowl careers.  Evan Mathis, for example.  They mature later in life and play longer.  This guy has been improving each year---solid depth is the goal, but expect him to compete.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
