Left vs Right (not politics, Moton)

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.

    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
