Jourdan Rodrigue believes Panthers RT Daryl Williams is "likely to test the market."

Not happy at all.

I'm fine with him finding his market value.  The Panthers certainly can afford, and should pay him market value.

We have two good RTs.  Moton is not a LT. So we either pay Williams now and let Moton walk later, or let Williams walk and get a couple more cheap years out of Moton before giving him a new deal.  Both are starting RTs.

I remember than same talk about Gross. 

Yes, Moton is a natural RT, saying he isn't/can't be a solid LT is beyond a stretch. 

Especially in this era where even finding an average LT is difficult.

And your other option is Kalil

Hell no,...’draft the best tackle at 16 and then the best tackle and then best center.

first 3 picks,.. load it up,.. it’s time to stop messing around with the offensive line. LT, RT and Center— use the FA money to do the defense.

how about spend all the draft picks on offensive line and another pass catching tightend or a TY Hilton type of receiver like Marquise Brown.

 

freakin Gettleman move...lol

I guess we keep speed bump and watch Cam get killed again. It's a damn shame that Ron and our GM's have killed our All Pro QB.

Resign Williams and go DL in 1st, G/C at 47, DL + DL/CB/S with both 3rds and OL 4-6.

Caveats of BPA, i.e. I don’t want the next best T at 16 if it’s the kid from FL over a better DL.

I don’t think highly of the tackles early, but I do want DL and interior OL as those I like early. If we resign Williams we still need tackle depth but that’s not early and our weak spots will be LG and C.

Also, drafting T in the 1st and 2nd when one of our best players last year was a tackle makes no sense. I wish we drafted Crosby last year instead of a tiny DE that never played. That would give us solid depth behind Williams and Moton. 

How many Pimps do we have on this ship?

With the state of the OT position aroimd the league, I suspect someone is going to pay him. Probably not what they would have prior to his injury, but anyone expecting to get him for a bargain is probably in for disappointment.

I would hope the Panthers would pay him a solid contract if healthy. I would be really surprised if he's 100% by FA. Knee cap injuries are a range of minor to career ending to a Tackle. With that said only the Panthers will truly know his status when he test FA.

I hear you on both counts but we can build depth in FA or later in the draft especially a LT to develop as an eventual replacement for Kalil. Replacing Mixon and Genie Rob would be music to my ears.

Anyone who can't beat out Matt Kalil day one is really not worth developing.
