Then we will have to bring in Willis to stop that poo.

Honestly, I'd rather do that than sell the farm for Watson. Spend money on Armstead, let Willis learn from Cam.

Cam is not coming back

IT'S LITERALLY THE SAME FROM THE LAST GAME MINUS ONE PERSON JFC

BC was an upgrade at LT the last 2-3 games. Starting BC keeps Erving from LT which makes it an upgrade, the guards were our weak spot and now we got a solid one to replace 1 of the 2. Elf was serviceable at C (also different as we started Paradis until he got hurt). So 3/5 would be new starters that what we started with last year (BC, Corbett, and Elf at C) and Moton is solid at RT. Throw in an OL coach that knows what he is doing and yeah it’s an upgrade. Still have a weak spot at LG with C and LT able to be upgraded, but instantly better than what we trotted out last year.

If we can keep teams from just tossing the middle of our line out of the way, we’ll have a much better chance at doing football.

Great signing! If we add Watson this would be huge. If not take a LT at 6 overall!

Yeah for now, BC-guard-Elf-Corbett-Moton. Deonte played LG in college so that's probably the placeholder

If we don’t get Watson I think Cam is very much in play. 
 

To be honest it’s possible we field a better team this year with Cam, a rebuilt o-line, and  all of our draft assets vs Watson and stripped bare defense, and likely no CMC or  DJ.

Newton has looked worse and worse every game since midseason of 2018.  He is not reversing that trend.

I love Cam.  Favorite player.  But I'd much rather watch Darnold continue to suck than Cam outstay his welcome.  It was fun to have Cam back and get the closer both sides needed, but it is time to move on. 

If Cam wants to play, he should do it in a Taysom Hill kind of role for a contending team.  Lot of value for him there.  But as a starting QB?  He sucks.  So does Darnold but Darnold is already signed to the roster.

Wonder what is taking so long for these contract details.

[TheSpecialJuan]

substantial upgrade over John Miller 

[Jackie Lee]

A bit higher than hoped but we are the Panthers

I mean Laken and Scherf are above 40 for 3yrs...so this is a good value

Agreed. Fair based on what has been given out.
