Taylor Moton makes PFF's 1st quarter All Pro team

RT – TAYLOR MOTON, CAROLINA PANTHERS

HONORABLE MENTION: Mitchell Schwartz

Moton gets the slight nod here due to his impressive work in the run game, though Schwartz deserves recognition as the highest-graded pass-blocking right tackle in the NFL so far this season. Moton, though, has been no slouch himself, allowing only three hurries all season and taking only five downgrades in the run game all season.

Even though it's just a quarter we ought to be extremely impressed excited everything about his play gets me fired up especially if he can transition to the left. Which we've seen him do already, now if Williams comes back healthy which is very realistic these days actually stronger thrn before. Only complaint we've heard it a thousand times but in all actuality he'd be subbing in on power formation if our starters didn't both get hurt even when we knew we needed a upgrade over Kalil but that's why Rivera graded so low in the personnel category under his coaching rank.

I want to keep repeating that this is the guy Rivera wanted to keep on the bench until injuries forced his hand.

That's all I think about it's crazy wait till Moore takes someone's snaps even with his weak routes, did you see Torrey Rin a route and not even look for the ball and it hit him in the dam face mask it's been so much weakness I'm lost for words but his impact still may be legendary depending on how Eric turns out for us imo.

Also, starting RB, WR, and LT in the same draft? That's some ole Dan Morgan, Kris Jenkins, Steve Smith poo right there. 

Coulda been K of the future too :(

Sure, Gano's good and I'm fine with his play. Though it's fair to wonder "what if" given Harrison Butker's high level of play.

I really hope one of Moton or Williams can make a smooth transition to the left side. If so we will be set for a decade but I worry that both really only have experience on the right and it won’t work out as well as I hope.

If I'm not mistaken, Jordan Gross started his career as a RT before switching to the left side.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
