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.”

      Some Draft Grades & some thoughts

      By TD alt · Posted

      Our Panthers reporter, Anthony Rizutti of Panthers Wire provides us with a few grades. I've added a couple of more snippets of analyses from some NC guys, including our friend Scott Fowler in Charlotte and a vid from Panthers Playbook's Dennis Cox and Chris Lea in Raleigh. It is food for thought. Of course we all have our opinions, but, me personally, I tend to giive the opinion of hardcore fans and people that actually follow the team a little more weight.  Touchdown Wire:     B Draft Wire:                B+ USA Today:               C NFL.com:                  B ESPN:                        B- PFF:                          C Yahoo Sports:          C CBS Sports:             C+ If you want to read their little summaries, hit the link. But as you can see, the national types have largely graded the draft average. There seems to be an acknowledgement of the fact that Morgan and company were in a hard place due to the malfeasance of the previous administrations, but that our FO did the best it could. One of the "experts" mentioned the "boom-or-bust" nature of our draft, which is an interesting way to characterize it, but I'm good with that. And Charles McDonald may have put it best which basically alluded to the fact that so much of the grade is simply based upon the unknown: "Even though they’re getting a C, it’s hard not to be caught by the allure of the unknown here. It’s a really interesting class." https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/lists/panthers-nfl-draft-grades-experts-2024/   Tony Pauline, another national talking head, took his page straight out Debbie Downer's playbook, but it's all about perspective, right? Here's a bone for those that are decidedly negative about the outcome: "You could brand the Panthers as this year’s losers before the event began, considering they frittered away the first pick of the draft last year to select Bryce Young. Trading up one spot for the final selection of Round 1 to select Xavier Legette, a Day 2 receiver prospect, kept things going in the wrong direction for Carolina."   One person who has been---perhaps what has been perceived as negative about the direction of the franchise---decidedly sober-minded and what I consider fair about the way things have been going under the Tepper era has been Scott Fowler. By now, everyone should have heard of the contentious relationship that he and David Tepper have. Fowler has called Tepper out on his decided malfeasance (labelling it inTeptitude as I recall), and Tepper, the owner that is a somewhat contentious all own his own by the simplest of "slights," has outwardly acted inappropriate (in my opinion, toward Fowler. But Fowler was decidedly positive about this year's draft. "While nationally the Panthers didn’t get nearly the same amount of attention in this draft as they did in 2023, owing to the controversial big-splash trade and the ensuing selection of Young a year ago, this group may be more significant as a whole." Fowler gave the draft a B+ "This team is going to be more exciting. In particular, I have high hopes for Legette and Sanders. Carolina didn’t get everything it wanted — an edge rusher in the first two days of the draft would have been nice, for instance. But overall, I’m giving the Panthers a grade of B+ for the 2024 NFL Draft. Which, given the team as a whole got an F last year, is quite an upgrade." You may hit a paywall:https://www.heraldonline.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article287830040.html#storylink=cpy   And finally, here is Dennis Cox And Chris Lea. I thought they were fair and thoughtful in their assessment. They call Dan and Dave (and company) "The Alignment," because of being on the same page.  For me, that alone, is worth the listen.

      I honestly don't really care. This year is all about figuring out if Bryce is it. Period. Because if we have another high pick next year (pretty likely if we're being honest) we need to know if we need a QB.
