My bet is Amini. Prepare yourself Cam for a Hurnistic fun time. What ye say? 

I was going to say Cam because he will be running around for his life. Can't believe we didn't go after a single OL player. Has that ever happened in a draft for the Panthers?

Tyler Larsen is our backup center but was originally brought in as a guard. Moton was a 2nd rounder we traded up for. I hope he wins it otherwise he’s more of a wasted pick than Butler was since Butler at least plays some snaps and is in the rotation.We won 3 games and aside from one play I don’t think anyone can point out Amini playing terrible.

Before I read the responses to this question and answer, I want to share my opinion.

Moton, unless he takes LT from Matty Nice. However, I think Ron wants to prove that he has an eye for talent (He fell in love with Silatolu and pushed for him to be drafted).  There is something there he crushes on.  

But I think Wharton will chime in if nobody else does.  Hey, and for all I know, Moton sucks and is not the best.  I think it is a mistake to throw scraps at the stove and hope a steak dinner emerges.  If you want to know how bad Matt Kalil really is, put a weak G beside him. Then by game 3, Ryan's neck starts kinking and he stands on the sideline watching Larsen do his job while he collects $750K per week.

When Ragnow was drafted ahead of us--a player we loved--we moved on.  I think we decided that Moton would play G and Kalil would play T for another year-

Rivera shouldn't be allowed to finish the season if he replaces a All pro guard with amini and it results in losses or offense regress.

Hell, last year, in a playoff run, he (MH--but he approved it) traded his #1 WR for a third round draft pick.  Then we got hammered because Cam had no weapons in the playoffs.  Remember that Kaelin Clay drop?  What might have been...

As I recall, it wasn't Ron who pushed for Amini.  It was Rob Chudzinski.

Amini is probably Riveras 2nd favorite player behind Stewart from last season .. I'm guessing he starts , with Sirles and Moton stepping in if Amini  is bad out of the gates

What Rivera SHOULD do is have an open competition in training camp and the pre season and make the best man win the job, since we def do have a number of bodies . 

The thing is , I doubt we even need a world beating LG. Whats more important is LT and C, if the Kalil brothers poo the bed again this season it wont even matter who is at LG. Our line looked horrenduous for much of the first 1/2 of the season last year when Norwell was in there.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By The Question · Posted

      You making fun of or not realizing how important that actually is leads me to believe you don’t have either of those assets and are subconsciously upset about it, or you’ve never been in a position to be a leader and thus you don’t value good leadership which Bryce oozes with.

      I said this last night to family. You can look at Bryce as not a “strong and physical” presence and that’s not going to change on you can look at it, that this guy has the type of skillset that sets him up to only get better for the next 5-7 years every year. He’s not going to know less about the game next year than this year. His timing will be better, his pocket presence better (even though the guy works around a pocket amazingly in my opinion), everything is just going to improve every year and I believed he’s already proved the doubters wrong other than nut huggers on here who just want a big strong man to drool over.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.
