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.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
