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.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      Yeah. As a wild card team. Washington won the division at 10-6.

      no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.

      Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
