LT Brandon Knight was waived by the Cowboys. I know people are probably thinking "Who?" but given the crap we have on our line do you guys think it might be worth it to put in a claim on him and see what he can do for us? I don't know much about him though some of the Dallas articles I've read stated he has Guard/Tackle flexibility. He is likely to go back onto the Dallas practice squad if nobody puts in a claim.

Do not touch this guy. He's just as bad as Cam Erving. If not worse. No disrespect to Mr. Erving at all. 

The question is, is he better than Daley at RG or Christiansen at LT? Cam and Elflein may see more time out, and if he can play on par, we could use him. 

 I do not want to repeat last weeks experiment.

This. Erving had probably been our second beat OL prior to getting hurt. All he needs to be is better than our worst.

Sure. Why not?

We're at the point we have to take scraps, might as well be scraps off of one of if not the best OLs in the NFL.

That was what I was thinking as well. I'm not sure where we are in the waiver order but I'd definitely try for him given our problems. Most articles I see about him talk him up though some of them do mention he has issues with Speed Rushers when playing LT.

Our biggest issues are along the IOL, so that's fine by me. Christensen was good enough last week that I think he should continue starting and developing at OT.

If you fling poo at the wall to see what sticks, you're still going to be stuck with poo.

Sorry, just not interested. With this league being as OL needy as it is, unemployed OL are unemployed for a reason. They suck. We have enough of that here. Don't want more.

He could just be buried on the depth chart in Dallas with that excellent line they have.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
