Moton LT of 2019? Not so fast...

For those of you wondering about Moton in 2019, did you wonder why he was not playing some LT yesterday?

That makes me wonder about Williams and a new contract.  Or the condition of his  knee.

We were one OT whiff away from CMC taking snaps.

Options?  Moton to LG,  Moton to RT without signing Williams,  Moton to left tackle even though we kept him on  the right side this season while the LT position sucked.

Since RR is the coach, who knows?   Does he think that far  ahead?

yeah man, long, ideal LT frame? Blazing quick 1st step? Proven talent?

Let's move this player to OG.

 

 

He was a better G in college than T.  He has not consistently shown the attributes you have associate with him...If your LT sucks and you have the LT of the future at RT---what would you do?

Exactly on point about LT...the obvious choice is going after a good LT...which has been the obvious choice since Gross left...

Yeah

Haha some people on here

Dude handled Dallas's Lawerence better than most LTs in the league.  

But want to draft a guy like Little who scots says has the tools but is a project, and got beat pretty bad by some college pass rushers this year

 

 

Only Huddler would want to replace a guy who handled a probowl DE at LT and was solid in his other showings there.

To draft a project who gets beat by college pass rushers.

Moton to LT and Williams to RT seems like the logical move. (yes even to Hurney) 

Rivera said he was going to takee a look  at players this week.  Why not let your future LT play LT? 

Is he  still  thinking Kalil  is  the man ?

No. Matt's contract allows them to move on if he's post June 1. I would very much think this is what they're going to do.

How does someone not consistently show the attributes I listed? lol.

This entire thread feels like setup for "there's this OT I want the panthers to draft in the 1st round and they should pass on bigger needs and two strong OT talents to do it."

      The Cavalry is Coming

      I'll be honest.  I'm not sure I want to see any those guys returning right now given what others are presently doing.... minus Coker.  Hubbard returning likely messes the run game up (I mean, it's going to come down regardless but he still), Tremble and Evans actually are doing well, Corbett seems to make us worse up front, and the D has made some strides.  I'd like to just keep that whole lot on the shelf this week.

      Ikem Ekwonu is slated to GET PAID

      By Basbear · Posted

      I don't think people know that Icky is still only 25 years old. Panthers signed UDFAs older this year and drafted DJ Johnson. Heres a fact, a deep fact.... Its easier(much) to find a good-great QB than good-great LT. Another fact there's only 12-15 true LTs and the others are larping as LT.  SO....(I'm not a fan btw)......you nearly must resign him at all cost even with him being around the 12th best at times. Its the hardest spot to fill and he's still awful young with 4 years as a pro. Carolina already got 4 years of "cheap" service as well, that's invested time and effort.  The fan-side of me hopes he signs some top 5 at best top 3 big money deal. Just the cap keeps growing and LTs, young LT with experience are rrrrrrare and unique. Tag him if needed and tag him again, then trade him. I think he enjoys being/living in NC.  I hope he's stays on a team friendly deal, but those are soooo rare these days.  Only two options- pay him whatever, even if it's top $$$$$(uggggghhhh..) or tag him for 2027 and keep trying to pay. Worst outcome is trading him for couple 1s, 3s, and 5th maybe a player too.

      DJ Moore trade talk

      By CRA · Posted

      I always loved DJ Moore.  I don't see him wanting to comeback here.  He seems to be tired of inconsistent QB play and you finally see that bubbling over in Chicago.  or maybe he just doesn't like the people.  He actually seemed fine with Fields.....and lobbied for them not to draft Caleb.  So maybe it's just a Caleb issue (and I think Caleb might have tons of baggage/issues that rub folks wrong)
