Carolina has Worst Pass Blocking Offensive Line


TheSpecialJuan

Recommended Posts

Matt Paradis' success in Denver has not translated to success in Carolina, as he has put up a PBWR of just 80%, well below the average for centers of 91%. But the biggest disappointment on this Carolina line has been Daryl Williams, who is back after missing most of last season with a knee injury. He was rocked by Barrett when the Panthers faced the Buccaneers, but really, he has been bad overall, with a PBWR of 76%.

Even Trai Turner and Taylor Moton -- both PBWR stars in 2018 -- haven't been excellent. Overall, no team has been worse in PBWR than Carolina (32.5%)

This is not at all surprising. It makes Allen's performance against Arizona even more impressive but at the same time, it gives me even more concern that we won't be able to replicate that against a much better defense in the Texans. We might watch two QBs get absolutely beat to poo on Sunday because the Texans' OL isn't much better.

A line in which none of the five have played next to each other in a previous season is taking time to gel?! You don’t say! 

Moton, Turner and Van Roten are all manning the same spots they did before. Only Williams and Paradis are new from last year, replacing Chris Clark and Ryan Kalil.

    • Also hit the over.  Banking on Man City running up the score and Leeds getting a lucky strike.   
    • Tailed you.  Also Free Play, which is why the risk shows $0.00. Let me look at hoops and get back to you.  Always fade Hubert, haha. 
    • Hard to say right now, but good thinking.  I look at this as the info we need for free agency.  Looks like we are going to free up about $10m so far; watch to see if any contracts (Moehrig, Horn, Brown, etc) are reworked the first week of March.  Then after free agency, we will have a pretty good idea. Right now, to be fair to your question because I am sure you are aware of its timing: In free agency, I see us adding an OT of some sort and drafting one at some point.  It all depends on how they view Ickey, Nijman, and maybe BC.  That OT could be Nijman.  I do not see the future OT--just a stop gap. I see the Panthers signing a free-agent center.  I think the market is strong.  I see Fortner from the Saints as a prime candidate and his salary is estimated at $6m by Spotrac.  the Saints are $42m over the cap, so I doubt they are able to re-sign many of their own.  He will be 28.  I also expect them to re-sign Corbett (depth) at a vet min ($1.5m) deal. I also see free agency as a strong area to get a free safety who can play and is under age 30.  Hawkins, Cook, and Bryant are all around age 27-28, play at a high level, and should be had for about $15m per. EDGE: Arnold Ebiketie is a good value because he gets pressure at a high percentage.  He had 2 sacks and Atlanta just drafted 2 pass rushers last year.   He has a 70+ PFF rating and will (Spotrac) demand about $9m.  While he is not the answer, he is a great third down option with Princely and he would allow for Jones, Scourton, and Princely to develop.
