Round 6 Pick 199: Cade Mays, OL, Tennessee

[MHS831]

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.

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.

hard to say because I could not keep up with the injuries and IR etc--most teams keep 8 active on game days, so I am guessing 9 or 10.

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.

Whatever it was, it permeated his sweat.  My first thought was beef and garlic…
