I'd take a strong veteran mentor for our top 10 pick rookie LT over a conditional late round pick. What are we gonna do, draft another long snapper?

Icky was never going to bust   Who wa s Gross' s mentor?  Did he have one?  Did you ever hear of bundling picks?  Did we not draft a he'll of a kicker once upon a time not so many years ago late in the draft who is now one of the best for another team?

I think Campen is doing just fine. Erving would not be missed. 

He is. But there's more to being an NFL player than just the Xs and Os and on-field technique. Mentors are a good thing for kids trying to learn how to be professionals while also dealing with being newly made millionaires.

But muh 5th rounder for ERV!!!

You have to forgive me, Im a draft whore. It does much sense to keep him, even if its only for Icky. You can also look at it form this side too, If a team signs him, the panthers are in line for a decent comp pick as well(i bet). 

Still alllll that said, I would still take a 5th and tell Icky to text Erv.....

I honestly think his value is more along the lines of a conditional 7th. Hence why I'd rather keep him.

Mentorship is not a part of his contract.  He's overrated and overpaid.  His replacement was just signed and now it's up to Campen to get him ready should he be needed.  Ikem has a backup already in Christensen.  Any of the remaining backups can play guard.

You're not getting out from under the contract. I'd rather have the mentorship over the conditional 7th.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
