Has Matt played RT? Is he stronger than Williams? Like as I understand it LTs can play RT just not necessarily in reverse. Matt gets brushed aside so often on the left side that I can't read his actual strength level.

I don't think Matt has played or can play RT.

Also, for those saying we ignored OL, in the span of 5 drafts/UDFAs we could have put together an OL of Moton, Norwell, Larsen, Turner and Williams. 

My concern was we ignored the OL this year...no drafts...no trades... no FA's.   Williams injury is really hurting now.   Matt's injury didn't hurt so much.

He and Darryl would've made a combo for the foreseeable future that would've made Panthers fans happy. 

I have been looking forward to next season already, regardless of the results of this one, because I felt like we would finally have those two as our bookends.

The fact that Moton is going to get starting time now has me so friggin pumped. I'm excited to see how he develops this season and am absolutely giddy over the return of Williams. Van Roten has been solid and Turner is a Pro Bowler. Find ourselves a new center (Larsen?) and Cam has an OL for the rest of his career.

Not sure Williams is back. He's going to want to get paid, and after an injury, you know how that goes.

Amazing that Moton never got a chance last year either. If Matt, Daryl and Amini were never hurt, Moton would be the jumbo tackle this year.

Also, for those saying we ignored OL, in the span of 5 drafts/UDFAs we could have put together an OL of Moton, Norwell, Larsen, Turner and Williams. Man, why couldn’t Ryan have retired after 2016 so Matt would have never come here. We could have been “forced” to start Moton at LT as a rookie.

We were never going to keep Norwell and Trai together past their rookie deals. Teams don’t pay two guards top 5 money.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
