Brian Baldinger breaks down the Panthers' offensive tackles

Good to hear about Icky.  We know BC can hold down the fort at either T spot, but a stud LT is a plus.  If we can't find a stud LG, then something is wrong.  I think BC has a good shot, but watch the development of Mays as well.  He looked GOOD at RG.

The thing about evaluating OLmen is you have to see several games vs. teams that show nearly every situation possible.   For example, Icky vs. a Speed Rusher is a concern.  I love him vs a Bull Rusher and in run blocking.  How quickly will he pick up stunts from a 4-3?  A 3-4?  Just spitballing here, but he was OK in the few reps he had last week vs Washington.  Mays looked great, but how will he look vs a stud DL and not a scrub?  Time will tell--that is why I love these preseason games--

Gross/Otah is the best, even though it was only for one year. That 2008 offensive line as a whole was pretty dang solid. 

I still wonder what if with Otah, the guy was an absolute stud when healthy. Having him in 2013 to bookend Gross could've put us over the top that year honestly.

Moton is the perfect RT and is the most under appreciated (or under talked about) player on our team. 
 

Top 3 player on the team by skill, and arguably our best player when you weigh availability. 

If you're NOT talking about a lineman, that's a good thing.

    • I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.
    • It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!
    • I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
