Olsen was a potential foundation player being 26 at the time of the trade. Gilmore was a bandaid at 31. I mean, if we're going off of total careers, then Reggie White is the biggest signing in Panthers history but that's a ridiculous argument to make.

Potential doesn't make him a big / splash signing at the time of signing.

I agree, in terms of what each has brought to the Panthers in their careers here thus far, Olsen was BY FAR the bigger signing.  Few Panthers have matched Greg's level of excellence here.  Maybe Gilmore sticks around, maybe not.  Maybe he has a few more All Pro years.  Probably not.  Who can say what the future holds.

If he was, we wouldn't have gotten him for a 6th.

      Panthers Blueprint: Draft

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
