I don't think Moehrig will be there, but if he is the decision between best OT and Moehrig will be a tough one to make.  If you take Moehrig, do everything possible to trade back into the 2nd to get a quality OT.  

Only 6 teams pick prior to us so there is a good chance he’s there.

The run on EDGE guys and the 2 RB’s late 1st round last night was very much to our benefit. 

Rhule wanted more picks so maybe we trade back from #39

I think the true smokescreen was screaming BPA and still "reaching" for a need.

I put reach in quotations because I don't think it was that much of a reach. I like the kid, but I could've been happier with another selection. Still ready to see what the defense will look like now that Phil Snow has a defense that can play the scheme he wants.

I really think we are gonna go Safety as much as we need LT.

Moehrig or Grant. If we are lucky we will get  Walker Little in the 3rd.

I would rather get Eichenburg/Jenkins/Radunz in the second and pick up another safety later. 
 

I trust Juston Burris more at FS than Cameron Erving at LT.

Teven Jenkins.  I know his pass pro. isn't quite on the level as his run blocking, but oooeee, he is a road-grading mauler that plays with a mean streak in the run game. I know that might "sound" like a RT and not a LT, but I don't think he's incapable of playing on the left. Also, he's got to be better than who we have currently over there.  Obviously it would be nice for the team to give Moton a shot over at LT, where many feel he could also thrive.  But I don't think the Moton or the team have interest in screwing up a good thing, and he'll stay over on the right and continue to lock it down.  

Also, having Jenkins is insurance in case they can't reach an extension agreement with Moton.  If Moton leaves and Jenkins is better suited to RT, we can slide him over.

And we still have not tried Moton on the left side since RR left.

OL, OL, and more OL would be nice.  I like Eichenberg in the 2nd round.  He is not Sewell or Slater right out of the blocks, but he looks as good as any option. 

But, I am not hard-over on him.....only that we get somebody who can play the position.  Then look for an IOL later.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
