Offensive line coach talking about his rookies. From Panthers dot com 

"You know what, they're closer than I thought they would be," Meyer said. "Brady's done a lot of good things, and when we first got Brady we didn't know if he'd be a tackle or a guard and I think he could be either. And we've been able to flip him both sides, play right and left, and he's done a nice job. He's got good feet, he's a smart kid, obviously he's a little older, as a (soon-to-be) 25-year-old rookie. So he's more mature and he gets it.

"And with Deonte, the big thing with him was to make sure he keeps his weight in check, and he's done that. He's done a great job, he's in the 330s now, back from when we saw him at the Senior Bowl and he was 364. But he's done a good job, and he wasn't one of those big guys who can't move. He's a quick-twitch kid who has a lot of good lower-body explosion. He's learning, they both are, the different techniques we teach. But I would say they're closer to being ready than they are farther away."

code for "the guys we thought were going to be good aren't so we might have to do something" ?

This way we can blame it on the rookies for not being ready instead of our choice of going with the wrong guy?

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
