We have absolutely got to upgrade that oline

Left to right 

need further, Cowboys. Dak is ordinary 

first pick in draft needs to be a stud LT.  The second most important position on the team

got to be. Please sweet baby Jesus 

What if there aren’t any “stud LTs” available?

That would also be the difference in a GM seeing as Ryan Grigson shuffled the O-line on an annual basis.

And of course, there's also Frank Reich, a guy I was really hoping we'd get.

If McDaniels would have just kept his word. Like Reich too. Starting to get interested in Bienemy.

Every year people on this board talk about how important O-line is but once the draft rolls around they talk themselves out of it.

The "sexier" positions (WR, RB, DE) always seem to be more important at draft time.

  I’m saying there isn’t any OL in this draft worth #16. With 3 picks between 78 and 115(around those) there is plenty of opportunity to take one or two G/C candidates.

Remains to be seen, but we can certainly trade up with a first, second and extra third.

If there’s not one worth 16(that’s JMO) why would I want to trade up. 

  And I sure don’t want Hurney trading up under any circumstances.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
