People have to remember that any decision at LT will have a ripple affect at other spots.

If Erving can play LT decent you might end up with:  Erving(LT), Moton (RT), Brady (LG)

but if they decide they need Moton on LT maybe Brady ends us at RT and you end up with:

Moton (LT), Brady (RT), Elflein (LG)

I just think it’s refreshing that we know of, and can see a legitimate experiment that has a chance of working.  The last time something like this was done they went high school and had a DT convert to OL.  While I give them kudos for looking, that one was highly unlikely. This seems to have a legitimate chance at improving the overall line situation. 

Hahaha, that was a fiasco! An undrafted DT at that. A practice squad DT converted to starting RT for your #1 overall pick in the draft QB? What could possibly go wrong?!

I am really starting to hope so... I do not know why--prolly his workout numbers--but I want Christensen in the lineup.

I do too if he is the best guy we have at that position but we have all seen workout warriors who struggled to play as well as they train. Hopefully he is the real deal and immediately can contribute wherever he is needed. We have struggled to keep our lines healthy for some reason.

You think they both are equal to both sides?

Nothing has happened or anything. I just have it in my head, going into this season, that these two are our best outside lineman. I believe Moton can work on either side. Its more about believing in Moton + veterans. No disrespect to the rookie but he was in a poor conference not going up against elite defenses and got drafted at 24 and will be 25 years old at the start of the season. Those extra years he had on other college kids absolutely makes a difference.

Didn't we move Bell to L because he was left handed?  That failed.

I think you are correct. I forgot about that one.  The Bell experiment was a bad one.  In his defense, he was an UDFA and should not have been in that position. Organizational failure 

Chandler, Bell and Amini all at the same time. 4 man rushes looked like jailhouse blitzes on the regular.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
