The Moton-to-left tackle talk is real

When Moton lined up occasionally at left tackle in the spring, it felt like an in-case-of-emergency proposition. But listening to Moton and Panthers coach Matt Rhule talk Tuesday, it sounds like there may be a little more to it.

Moton’s best position remains right tackle, where he’s made 47 of his 48 career starts. But if the left tackle competition goes poorly, Moton could slide to the left side as the Panthers seek to get their five best linemen on the field.

“We’ll put him over there. I know it’s a challenge that he probably would like to undertake,” Rhule said. “We did a little bit in the spring, but it’s hard to do without pads on. We’ll maybe give him some reps here and there, and then just get a feel as we go of who the other four best guys are.”

Cam Erving and Trent Scott — two of the guys who will compete at left tackle — are both good to go after missing OTAs and minicamp with injuries, Rhule said. If third-round pick Brady Christensen — or even Greg Little — look like they can handle the right side, it might make it easier to move Moton, who prepared this summer to be ready to play either side.

“It’s just feeling more and more comfortable, repping it out day in and day out until you feel like you’ve got it down,” he said. “You can only do so much on air. It’s gonna come down to when you’ve got a real NFL pass rusher in front of you till you get the real feeling of it and feel comfortable.”

      BREAKING: Panthers sign QB Kenny Pickett

      By frankw · Posted

      Yeah I find myself flipping between the worst case scenario of Bryce either playing just mediocre enough for our decision makers to justify giving him a contract extension in their eyes because they want to justify drafting him. Or Bryce going back to playing poorly and us having no one else to fall back on because Pickett might be decent for one or two games but there's no one else and our locker room starts to get ugly because we went all in with our salary cap and guys careers are on the line. This scenario which IMO is the higher probability given our schedule and the amount of tape out there on Bryce is why I say if we can trade down and acquire a few more mid or late round picks we should draft a developmental QB. Not looking for a guy to be the savior but someone with the necessary physical tools and who could actually run a QB sneak. But we'll just have to see how it shakes out. I just want a competitive team but the last thing I want is the season to fall apart because we once again threw our arms up in regards to the QB room.

      ^This. Rico was dynamite when we needed it last season, but not enough to keep but it massively upped his earning potential. It was a win-win for both sides. And he was there to cover the hole left by the injury to another RB, and hopefully his release to free agency means there's good news for us on the way. These new ones give us the opportunity to do that again, on the offensive line and elsewhere. We've got some long term question marks here and there due to injuries and age, and these players have a chance to up their value on the open market or settle down with us if the opportunity arises. And none of it ties us down with dead money down the road if it doesn't work out. And we've been in dead money hell for a decade now. Lease the ones you like, buy if you fall in love.
