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.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
