Would Andrew Norwell be interested in coming back?

Depends on the money. My friend was (is?) best friends with Norwell. They played together at OSU. I should text him and see if they still are in touch. 
 

I remember when I met with him

and Andrew at slate to get hammered on a Wednesday. Andrew is an animal

Andrew Norwell is still a very good guard and is a free agent this off-season. New OC Ben McAdoo knows him from his season in Jacksonville. 

Norwell would be a plug and play starter at LG. 

If we draft an LT like Cross or Neal I imagine Christensen would be LG. Andrew could play RG. Would just have to find a C and would be a decent line. 
 

LT: Cross/Neal

LG: Christensen

C : Anyone not on this roster

RG: Norwell

RT: Moton

Brown at center. He said he wanted to learn to play the position. Easily top 10 o line.

Brown is definitely a question mark at this point.  How much of his bench riding was on the coaching staff and how much was on Brown?  Still, players selected on day 3 should be considered developmental, so there is hope that he can play an IOL position.  A lot of it will depend on his conditioning.   OL are not subbed in and out like DL or TEs, so they have to be able to go the distance, as you know.

I do  believe that we will sign a high-end free agent G---I worry that they will go with Elflein at C.  Draft a LT, move BC to G, and that is what they will call "an investment."

I'm almost sure we're looking at C and G in FA. Going LT in draft...or going QB if we get C,G and LT in free agency somehow. 

They may consider moving Elfien to fulltime at center but his availability could collapse our whole plan without a decent backup. I think Elfien is their plan at backup. Same exact scenario with Erving at LT.

I think Elf can be released and it would save us some $$ (2.3 million)---not sure it would be worth it--same for Erving.  Erving can play every OL position--and is valuable as a backup, I would think

I hope we do not have Erving on the roster. Whether it is injuries or something else, it seemed he seldom finished a game he started. His performance was dreadful this season.

Hell of a nice guy too.

I met a few Panthers on a USO tour in Germany and he squatted down to my (then) 8 year old sons height and smiled really big for a picture beside him. Really made my day.

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
