You have to replace the depth we lost, neither Miller, or Schofield had high merits and played well, as bad as people here mock the OL they finished middle of the pack last season even with all of the injuries. 

We don't have the cap to sign a top tier FA on the OL, the price is too high, so the thing both these guys add is the fact they can both plug and play anywhere on the OL. 

Elfein - G or C

Erving - T, G, and C

These are value signings, and allow us to BPA in the draft is needed in case an OL prospect we like is not there. 

I get all of that and knew in advance we weren’t going to be players for big named OL pieces. However, you don’t give this much guaranteed money to two guys with their history. 

These only become value signings if Rhule and co. are able to turn both of these dudes careers around. Otherwise they’ve once again overpaid for crap.

Is this our left tackle?

My gut says no but...🤔

If he's fully recovered from the MCL sprain he should be a step up from Scott, who's better than Daley, who's better than Little. I like that he and Scott can back up either side. I still fully expect to draft a LT.

Panthers signed OT Cameron Erving, formerly of the Cowboys, to a two-year, $10 million contract. 

The deal includes $6 million guaranteed. The Panthers are making early, tactical signings as they try to shore up their offensive line. 28-year-old Erving had a rough 2020 for the Cowboys' injury-ruined offense line, making just six appearances as he turned in typically shaky play. Even at his best, Erving has never been better than league average, so it is an eye-brow raising opening day signing. Capable of playing both guard and tackle, Erving is an insurance policy for a team that currently has only one starting tackle under contract.

How is this "eye-brow raising"?  Not following here.  Its a cheap, short contract.

    • Profit sharing among owners. More ‘desirable’ matchups garner more viewership, leads to more revenue generated and more profit for everyone invested. Y’all don’t think there will ever be a Titans vs Panthers SB, do you? lol, yeah right. Tampa vs Jacksonville? Now that’s funny.  Now, do I think there is ‘the man’ who overlords over all of this? Nah, but bias, even among refs, owners and media can, will, does, and always exist when there is $$ involved.  Refs are people too. Probably football fans, and as such, probably have a favorite team and a favorite player ( why would a non-fan ever become a ref). There is no way officiating will be completely impartial when this is the case. Might be an interesting idea (not in a stalker ish way) to see where each ref grew up/lives, then you could see their likely allegiance. What if 2 refs officiated the same game and they both grew up in say SF, Dallas, Philly or New York? Impartial officiating. Nah.     Would you be? Panthers need a FG to advance in the playoffs, it’s third and long with 45 sec left in the game… obvious hold on your Your team’s center? You calling that? Don’t lie, you know you wouldn’t. 
    • Player Culture vs Staff Culture What are some pros and what are some cons of this?
    • Somehow never getting the #1 pick since what, 91?  When you have a team as bad as this team for the last 25 years there should have been more chances at number 1 and that's how you know the NBA is a bad product for most teams' fans.
