I agree but even if he played enough.. He still might not be a LT as good as Neal, Ike, or Cross.. He still was a 3rd rounder while thess guys are top 10 worthy..

They were not wrong on this one. He will make a really good OG if we have a good LT beside him.

Pisses me off that Rhule didn't play the kid and now they have no idea what they got. Two days from the draft and they don't know if he can do the job or not. One pick to decide if they can afford to take a premier LT prospect and not gamble on the QB. 

Total lack of coaching foresight and planning. Don't understand the logic behind not playing him. Explain it to me because I don't get it.

 

I agree but passing on any of those 3 LTs because of brady is dumb he's good depth LT or a decent LG

Brady has good feet and is agile. He just has trouble anchoring against more powerful rushers. Camden said in his PC that he thought Brady had the potential to play all 5 spots (hence my earlier response). I don't think that means he can play them all well though. If they draft a LT early Brady will most likely transition to G or C. Cam Erving will probably be our backup swing tackle (if he does not start).

He's not a guard. He gets manhandled with power in the interior space. He's a tackle and should be kept as a swing tackle.

So I guess Brady could be a backup Swing Tackle and Erving could be a Backup (or starting?) Guard.

Really depends on where we go at 6. If we go LT, I see BC moving inside and Irving being the swing for this year only. Next year, BC will be the swing and Irving will be gone. 

If we go another route, BC and Irving will battle it out for LT and the other one will be backup, and we draft a guard or let Brown start at RG and see how it shakes out.

It would not surprise me if they move the kid to C this year and let him get reps there and learn the position. He seem smart enough and agile enough to be a good player there. I worry he's too light in the A$$ to play Guard.

this is my thought as well. I think he can be an above average center

So basically a complete waste of a pick.  We spent a third round pick on a guy that will never start for us.  What happened to the guard from Bama? Let me guess; he is still a fat slob.

i dont think thats a fair take. after the first and top half of second you aren't really expecting to draft impact starters. If BC ends up being a cheap 5 year plug and play OL that can step in and be average for 2-3 games a year for injuries and then backup as needed, that's a great 3rd round pick.

We don't know what he is thanks to Rhule. He should have been starting a couple weeks in. He looked better than Irving in preseason and he should have been given the reps. He wasn't. Then they tried to have him play 4 positions, not an easy task for anyone, let alone a rookie. 

His natural position is tackle. He may be able to learn to play guard or center but it's a different skill set as far as how to deal with rushers. We didn't really develop anyone last year. Campen is good. Give him a little time to work with the guy.

      Should Canalas bring someone else in to call offensive plays?

      By strato · Posted

      We could quibble about was that an answer to what I asked but I  don’t see it as being one. Look, he agreed to this Evero thing. Up front. Apparently anyway. Took the job with those conditions in place. I buy that and will work off of it.  This play calling issue isn’t the same thing. I am not in the mood to delve into Canales’ shortcomings and get out the pitchforks at the moment. I will abstain from that topic and stick to the quandary the dissenters who want to usurp his play calling power, find themselves in. As far as that goes I am still on the fence and think the play calling is Bryce centric and the play selection/playbook is affected. That does not mean I know that if the playbook was open he would be great play caller. Just that he is hampered right now.  Inserting an OC not of Canales’ approval changes the original parameters of the assumed agreement.  Unless you think Tepper placed a contractual prescription to allow Tepper to dictate that he can insert a play caller of his choosing after a time period if he is not satisfied with Canales’ work.  Which, do you really think that is in play?  I do not.    Unless it is, Canales has the option to yea or nay. As I said, it could be forced on him. But they only do that if they want him out.  And as of now his stock is up, I would have to say I don’t own any but I think it is up. He had the stadium rocking, the team in the playoffs, and has that sorry lil draft pick trending upward. Even at this very low rate.  I think he has ‘hand’ right now as they say on Seinfeld. This is something that may get play in the 2026 season, not now. IMO.

      Major Concerns with this team…with numbers

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      Canes now have 19 losses on the year. Here is the truly alarming stat. 13 of those were multiple goal loses. 9 of those were 3 goal plus losses. This team is getting blown out more than any other year under Rod.     why?  Blue line is a total mess. It’s just no good with their combinations.  It pains me to say this, but they were mikes better with Burns and Orlov. They need Slavin so bad.  Health.  Size. The team is too small and has no physical play. Most forwards do not forecheck.  Worst under Rod.  Goalie play. Pretty average to sub par. PK is downright bad. It’s allowing a little over a goal a game. Worst under Rod.    Team will not win a playoff round under its current group of players. It’s not constructed to do so against heavy teams.      solutions.  Must get physical size by the trade deadline. Rod and Tulsky know this. That probably has to come with the 2C.  KKs size but a better scorer and meaner.  The need another physical winger.  Goalie. Either go all in on a top guy on a bad team or get average. Lastly, better defense. Need a Right shot heavy defenseman.  Yes that could mean someone’s favorite dman could sit. Looking at you Boom.    thats 3-4 new guys that must be brought in for them to have a chance at a cup.  And it’s all players that are different and better than what they have.  They have the cap. KK is gone. Add 4 mill back.    And then hope it’s jells unlike Mikko.
