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.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes I to account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as a treading water year. I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked.

      think these smaller Qb's are going to have a much harder time convincing an NFL team to draft them. not saying a smaller Qb under 6 feet tall will not make an NFL roster .it will most likely be a UDFA contract more or less prove it deal.NFL teams have been burnt time & time again investing in these small NFL Qbs & i think  teams are now finally starting to realize that investing in these smaller Qb's under 6 feet tall is simply a bad idea  ...just saying
