The only acceptable statement if Fox is retained...

If Fox is retained for next season, there is one thing I want to hear from him in regards to the QB position. I am going to spell it out here word for word for John Fox to memorize and regurgitate......

Matt Moore has shown us potential, growth, and the ability to win football games. He will be taking first team snaps in OTA's this year. We are all behind him 100%

Any mention of Delhomme as still the starter and there will be a mutiny like they have ever seen. You don't let a young guy play this well and replace him with a shitty vet at the first chance you get. He needs confidence, and you sure as hell better give it to him.

Come on Zod, you know what the official statement will be going into OTA's

We have 100% confidence in Jake. He has earned our respect and trust year after year. I know he has been working hard to improve some things this offseason. Although every starting position on this team will have to be earned, he will be taking snaps with the 1st string to start camp.

Jake would be a really nice backup for a lot of teams, including us. If he would set aside his pride and mentor Moore, I think he would be worth keeping around. But since Fox will likely name Delhomme the starter next year, which is asinine, this team is done.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      I wonder if they'd consider trading Rasheed Walker to a team that needs tackle help but missed out in the draft?

      LOL. This is such a Panthers fan take.  Anyone who falls to us must suck because some other team didn't take them before.  We got lucky with Lemon, Thieneman, and Freeling all falling to us (honestly any of the three is a A+) but the WR and S positions are much deeper than the LT position in this draft.  We got the LT w/ the most upside at 19.  Mauigoa played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the nfl.  Spano played RT in college and some think he is a guard in the NFL due to short arms.  Blake Miller played RT in college and is not as good as Freeling.  Proctor is a true LT but his ability to handle quick edge's worries me (see Icky).  Freeling is a true LT and a gifted pass protector.  Many think he has a very high ceiling and will benefit from not having to start right away.  This is how you build a franchise.

      After watching Cam get killed for years behind a bad Oline and having to watch the 2021 and 2023 Olines I will never complain about this team putting resources into that spot.  We got a true LT who could really push Rasheed Walker for the day 1 job. Go back and watch Iceky's draft profile from 2022 and all the talk was Ickey would be an all-pro guard in a zone blocking scheme, but he could play LT in a gap power run scheme. That's why Ickey looked really good when Wilks took over and we just started running gap run plays and just mauled people up front but under Canales we've been more of a zone running team. Ickey can survive at LT with his pass blocking but his true strength will always be his ability to just move guys in the run game and that's a skill set that's better used at guard.  Take another OT later on day 3 to learn from Moton to take over RT in a couple of years and let Walker and Freeling battle it out for the day 1 LT job then next offseason trade one of Hunt of Lewis and let Ickey move inside to guard.
