Panthers sign OT; IR Williams

I don't know too much about Clark, other than the fact he has some solid experience. I'd expect the Amini at OT movement to slow down. We now have two RT's on the roster with experience at that position. If we do use Amini at RT for week3, i'd be concerned that he has something on coach or the front office.

I read some stuff on the Texans message boards and there were describing him as a "turnstile" at RT, yikes.

This is the same Chris Clark that played LT for the Broncos in the super bowl (2013).

 

One more to add: It has not been officially announced if we intend on Williams coming back after 8 weeks or not.

Can't guarantee he replaces Amini. 

Since they had to IR Williams, he could just be depth. Plus they already had Robinson, assuming he's healthy (still don't get why you'd sign a guy who wasn't when your line already has injury issues).

I believe they will move Amini back to the swing role, as originally projected. We don't have a backup RG at the moment. 

Lastly, the team's official depth chart was just updated and Robinson is our starting RT. Which is interesting.

Forget replacing Amini. We are one guy down no matter what!  We all hope to replace Amini but in the end we lost a man....and need to add another to replace him. A few hours ago everyone was crying we signed a practice squad WR instead of OL. Now we have "something" to address that serious situation, even if its just backup or just reaching because we are desperate

Definitely hope so.

The other operative question: Is Amini still playing special teams?

(not something you'd normally think about that much but after last week...)

LT in the SB.... Kony Ealy looked like an all pro that game.... Not a good look

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
