You cannot, CAN NOT, pay two tackles.  One of them needs to be on a rookie or cheap vet deal.  We're paying Moton.  Great.  Draft a tackle.  For the four years (or five if first round) this rookie is on his rookie deal, we are paying Moton.  When the rookie comes due, Moton should be ending and we either bring Moton back to finish his career on a friendly deal or we can draft another tackle and let him walk.

This isn't hard.

How about NO 

I don’t think they can afford him either

 

jk

 

but the point I hear from the OP is that A) the reason you can’t pay two tackles is due to cap.  B) the cap is getting ready to explode so, C)  there are new rules in this house. You “can” pay 2 tackles in 2022 so use 8 at another position and build a dominant line.

While our cap "explodes" so does everyone elses and the actual good (the OT in this case) is still scarce. So this would just lead to higher priced OTs. Its not just the Panthers cap space in a vaccum.

In theory it’s not hard,

we are in a new age of cap space. It will take acouple years for the players pay to catch up with the fast rising cap ... eventually the player pay will catch up with the cap.. 

 

   Tepper said he is willing to open up the check book ... how do the Saints always sign players when there cap space is negative.. sam has been running for his life ... get him a Pitts/chase and trade for brown (2nd and maybe 3rd ) 

 

not everyday a young tackle available... it’s worth exploring.. again cap is not the big deal it used to be and if it was...

 

most important piece is the QB. The most important to the QB is his Oline. When the QB is in a clean pocket .. he can light up his offense weapons and control clock ... that will keep the defense fresh to go out and run hard all game. 
 

 

I get it we can’t pay 2 OT top dollar .. but for the next few years player pay will be chasing the cap !!!!!! Tepper message me

What’s significant to the cap to you ?.. cap room is there .. this is a known young franchise tackle ... sure he only played LT for half a year and did well and also has play rt for high level before that .. what player in the draft has done that ? Also it’s 2 guys not 1 hopefully locked up long term at tackles ...: give sam a vet not a rookie that has to learn the ropes ... sam might not have time for that ...

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
