31) Carolina Panthers

When we look back at the 2021 NFL Draft in the coming years, the Carolina Panthers not addressing their offensive line could easily stand out as one of the more questionable decisions. While they retained Taylor Moton on the franchise tag at right tackle, Cameron Erving is set to start at left tackle. Erving’s 1.7% run stuff rate is among the bottom 10 for players who played more than 100 snaps in 2020.

An interior grouping of Matt Paradis, Pat Elflein, and John Miller does not give the line a huge boost. Paradis struggled in the run game with 14 blown blocks, tied for the third most. Meanwhile, Elflein’s blown block rate of 4% placed him as the seventh-worst interior offensive lineman in 2020.

Who do you think will start in their place?

I don't know.  I'm done guessing what they are doing.  Is the Moton to LT and BC to RT real?  Possible, but seems improbable.  Can Moore or Brown beat out Eiflin or even MIller?  Maybe. 

I'm not excited for a bunch of rookies on the line either.  

Eiflin was from the Jets, and Erving's been backup since he was drafted into the no win Browns.  Does the coaching staff believe that they were victims of circumstance and think they can coach them up?

The whole Erving, Eiflin thing is a mystery. 

Maybe they just wanted Darnold to feel at home.

These offensive line rankings is nothing but fools writing and reading. 

An oline doesn't consist of individual players. It is a unit. 

Predicting play based off a players last season under different circumstances doesn't equate to anything.  

While I'm not going to tell you we'll have an elite line, what I will tell you is until we see them come together as a unit, being coached by our staff, nobody knows anything. Not a damn thing. 

It's easy to sit back and Predict the end of the world.  How often has the world come to an end though?

People act like Russel Okung wasn’t injured for 90% of last season. Oh and we lost Chris Reed, big deal.
 

We added two depth pieces and some rookies. Not sure how that equates to dropping to the second worst unit in the league when we had a middle of the pack line last season.

Like I said. Written by fools, believed by bigger fools.

I think he played 7 games and we lost most if not all of them.

We almost beat KC with Daley and Little playing left tackle.

I think we all would prefer we didn't look so bad on paper here, but we just have a lot of prove-it guys.

They have Jets line rated higher because of adding one first round lineman. I guess they also forgot Becton couldn’t stay on the field either.

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
