As athletic as Christenson is, he would make a great pulling G.  LG beside Moton might be his home

If Moton ends up on the left I think there is a better chance that Christenson might end up as the RT.  Too me best chance for Christenson to play LG if for Moton to play RT and Cam play LT.

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. 

 

I'm a firm believer that if you can play. You can play. Let''s see if the kid can play, before we worry about what ifs?

Maybe down the line. But for this year? We kinda need him to be able to play RT. That would give us. Moton-?-Paradis-Miller-Brady.

 

We have a ton of guys to throw at LG. As long as Brady can handle RT.

The Panthers have been struggling with the o-line since Gross and Wharton retired. Other than Moton, they have drafted poorly and other than one year of Oher have been poor in free agency. Lets hope this year they figure it out as our “rookie QB” is going to need lots of help to be successful.

Makes sense.  Thanks.

Well technically, at one point I think we had..

Oher-Norwell-Kalil-Turner-D.Williams.. 

Oher-Free Agency

Turner-3rd round

Ryan Kalil- We already know

Darryl Williams- 4th-5th round I believe 

Norwell-Undrafted ..

Wouldnt really say we drafted poorly on Oline except for Lee Ziemba (7th), Edmond Kugbila (4th), Little (2nd) (who still has a chance but was last seen as very underwhelming). Its the lack of Oline picks that hurt us. 

In the last 10 years and out of 70 picks(estimate for argument sake), we've probably picked maybe 7-8 olineman....if that. The safety position possibly even less. Maybe its a just ironic that those two positions have been a weakness almost every season. Maybe my numbers and memories are off but for some reason we dont typically spend alot of draft capital on the Oline. 

Which is crazy once you consider that our offensive line is almost half of our offensive starters. 

We have to figure it out though, our seasons depends on it. Without time Darnold will have a rough year and 6 to 8 wins would be our ceiling. With time, this could end up being a double digit win season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      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.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
