They won't let me take tight up close shots of wide receivers against defensive backs because they are worried their secrets will be revealed to other teams. 

But other guys can video the entire damn field and upload it to youtube. It makes no sense. 

The real reason is that the Panthers want themselves to be the only Panthers media outlet, so they can control the narrative. They used to have 3 people in that department. Now it is up to 20. 

With 20 people you would think they could make the content less underwhelming. The only narrative they should be concerned with is not being garbage in the nfc south.

I am trying to figure out how a DT can flash with no pads on yet. 

Maybe a far better film student than most rookies? They expected ________ and Nixon far exceeded the expectations. I know Iowa has one of the better strength programs and they always have legit OLmen that hes took reps against daily. He should not have made to the 5th, one of many true "steals" finesser took chances on. Once he was drafted, the KK return ended, imo. I swear this class keeps feeling like the best in 25 years.....I keep fighting it.....

Yes--at Iowa, he started and was inconsistent at times.  Here, he will be situational and consistency is not as important.  Give us that gap shooting ability when we need it.

I think Horn, Marshall, and Tremble are already showing themselves to be starters, or at least players who will have situational roles in the case of the latter 2. BC starting, and playing well, anywhere on the line is certainly a win, and would make four!

Marshall, Horn, Tremble will play a lot--Tremble reminds me of the offensive Chinn.  Shi Smith, Christensen, and Nixon could surprise us and one could step up.

Do long snappers count?

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
