Round 6 Pick 199: Cade Mays, OL, Tennessee

I think the Panthers will keep on the 53-man roster 9 offensive linemen.

So who is "at risk" of being cut?

Cutting Jordan (LG) saves $1m (almost) in cap room. 

Cutting Daley saves about $1m in cap room.

Cutting Erving saves about $2m in cap room.

With that in mind, it is likely the following remain on the roster (Bold are projected starters):

  • Bozeman  (C, G)
  • Corbett (RG)
  • Ekwonu  (LT, G)
  • Chritstensen  (T, G)
  • Moton  (RT)
  • Elflein (LG, C)
  • May  (Swing T, G)
  • D. Brown  (RG)
  • Erving (Swing T, G, C)

I actually think we will keep Erving because he has experience with all 5 positions and cutting him sends $4m to the dead cap and only saves $2m.

My luck, I'd have been the guy stuck in a middle seat between them 😕

True that.  Several years ago I was on a nine hour international flight, stuck between a hogmollie sized young man in the middle seat and the bulk head.  Due to his size, he ‘over flowed’ the arm rest and about a 1/4 of my own seat.  He was sweating profusely throughout the flight and had eaten something pungent before hand.  It made the nine hour flight absolutely unbearable.  It was the only point in my life where I seriously considered ritual seppuku.

Yikes 😳

Love having Ekwonu, Christensen, May and Brown on rookie contracts.  Young, lean, hungry and inexpensive.  Two more drafts like this will build the line beautifully for the future.  This is the way.

Fortunately for you they did not show an Adam Sandler movie during this flight or you may have done it.

Keep the rookies and the new FA's if possible and Moton. Jettison all the rest.

There is no way any of the rookies could be worse than those lazy vets are. They managed to make Moton look human.

Hopefully this year's Trey Smith.

Hopefully we got a pancaker and a club bouncer on our left side with Ickey and Cade. BC is a good swing tackle but he's not really trying to punish anyone like these new guys.

It was a dare. $100 bucks to eat some lutefisk and boiled cabbage.

    • I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though   
    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
