Just now, Jon Snow said:

At this point you put the best player in at LG regardless of who it is. It's next man up. 

Fasten your seat belt folks. It's going to be a bumpy ride.

Agreed, I guess my point was that I can't see how that best next man up would be Mays, it's clearly Zavala or else Mays would be playing RG right now.

How this could benefit the Panthers in the long run: 

(Thank me later for being the voice of constant optimism and hope)

1.  Zavala moves to LG, his "natural position."  He never looks back.  BC had a PFF score of 56 or so last year--weakest link.

2.  Panthers can put Mays at RG, giving him valuable experience over the next 3 games until Corbett returns. 

Note:  By week 5, we have 2 starting guards and a backup.  Perhaps Christensen returns and there is no place for him.   GOOD!

3. BC has the athleticism to play OT, so you play him as the backup swing T-focusing on the right side.

4.  In 2024, Moton's contract swells to $30m.  Maybe you can trade him this season before the trade deadline (risky, I know) and move BC to starting RT.

Note: You saved $30m, upgraded at RG, and you have not lost a lot at RT if BC reaches his potential.  With the $30m in savings, you could probably sign a pretty good CB (Jackson is walking in 2024 as well) and WR.

While I like Moton, I do not see the logic behind giving him $30m when a team on a playoff run  is likely to overpay before the trade deadline.

      Bryce might be the most frustrating player we've ever had.

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      That's mostly me. I came into the season basically believing he was not ever going to be the guy but with a little bit of wait and see. It didn't take long of me seeing before I saw he was the same guy he has largely always been. Maybe in some future scenario 3-5 years from now he is confident enough to be a decent NFL QB. I don't really want to be the team waiting for that to happen. Let his 3rd, 4th, 5th or whatever team be the ones that figure it out.

      Naw let him get to Tampa and crack his old fragile body with Radsom or Trey M I’d love to see him get rocked by this raw defense. He’s a fool thinking he would leave us for greener pastures I’m glad it played out this way should’ve stayed loyal to the ones who really wanted you.

      And a legitimate question to ask is what does this offense look like once Bryce is off his rookie contract? How is that offensive line going to look? We have a ton of money invested up front and that is 100% unsustainable with Bryce making starting QB money. Icky and Moton are going to be 50m per season plus the guards at 32 and possibly Mays at 6-8 if we're lucky. Add in Bryce and that's 125m just on those 6 players if we tried to keep them all. It's just not doable.  So then the real question IMO becomes, if we spent the money on our OL, and less on a QB, would the outcome be that much different? I haven't seen Bryce elevate the offense enough by himself on a consistent basis to warrant the contract we would have to give him, not to mention the players we would have to give up, based on the accelerations of the bonuses as I understand them, would likely include Icky.
