Mike Kaye: Panthers going after starting C

This confirms what I was thinking.  I tried to ignore it, but he was not good--I blamed the reserve guards on each side of him. 

He led the NFL centers in the sacks allowed category.  Our guards were just as bad.  He lacks the ability to slide, I saw him late to pick up stunts and LBs.   I saw him getting bull rushed.  He is a good person and wanted to raise his family here-

He will be gone in the 20s I think.  Probably early 20s.

Powers-Johnson would be great at 33 but a lot of mocks are showing him gone in the 20's.  Zach Fazier from WV is shown in some mocks to still be there at #96 and that would be a really good pickup if the Panthers go WR at 33 which will probably happen.

Zach Frazier at the top of round 3 would be nice.  Plug and play at 60 something, you still get a starter at 33.

McConkey + Frazier would be nice.

I like SVP at UGA but Frazier works too. McConkey is great because he has a high floor.

I'm open to drafting a guard or center at 33. Interior OL is our biggest issue on the entire team.

As much as you want to draft a shiny, glittery WR, the teams that successfully build dynasties use the following rule (and this is not my opinion, I heard somebody say it who knew what they were talking about--forgot who):  Build from the inside out, front to back.   That formula says the OL--and the IOL are the starting points. 

You plug up that middle of the LOS and I promise you, Bryce gets better, the RBs get better, and the WRs get open.  Why? 

The facial pressure on a 5-10 QB takes him off his mark and the second that WRs are open before the DB adjusts closes.

you cannot win if your OL is giving up the A gaps.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
