OT Yosh Nijman to the Panthers

[HardcoreHokie]

At 6’7 315, Nijman was dubbed the "World's Biggest Robot"^[16] by teammate, quarterback Aaron Rodgers, after doing "The Robot" dance during a touchdown celebration. Rodgers praised Nijman for his play, stating that he "almost forgot about that side of the line", implying he trusted Nijman to protect his blindside.

I like bringing in food depth and potentially someone to push Icky if he doesn't put in the work this off-season.

Absolutely, our depth is so pitiful that the starters have no competition. 
 

So, you have one year to get your sh1t together Icky.

Decent money they must like him 

Didn't we pay Cam Irving something like this?  I am still reading the thread, but I thought Brady was going to be the swing T---it seems now that BC could be the third OG and the fourth OT.

I doubt that a new OL coach and new head coach write the depth chart in ink during March.

We are going to have more than one of these types.

Pretty much everyone we traded or let walk. Barno's a 9+ iirc... but I get your point. The last OT I remember seeing a 9+ on was Greg Little. We all know how that turned out...

Bright side is, this guy is already proven(to an extent). Gives BC some competition and improves our depth.

Not sure why you mentioned Greg Little, he was a horrible athlete with a putrid RAS.

I don’t think this is a guy that is going to push for anything. Seems more like a project that GB gave up on.

Not seeing how he is better than Icky or BC. 

Hopefully he is a serviceable backup.

I mean, Icky was trash last year. It wouldn't take much.

I remember watching him at the Combine because I was watching OTs carefully given our need. The guy looks like a fish out of water. Like a guy with two left feet. I don't think he'd ever actually ran any of those drills before. He hadn't prepared a bit for the biggest job interview he'd ever have in his life. I couldn't believe it when the reports started trickling out that Hurney really liked him. Like... WHAT???

Could BC compete with Corbett at center? Or is he being groomed for RT if Ickey works out?

Just turned 28.  Relatively young for an OT.  Reasonable contract.

A theme for Dan adding contributors in the spirit of "but he gets on base."

This guy blows

He is a depth signing. Don’t read too much into it.

Nice to have a front office that actually is trying to address the o-line for once.

He's 6'7". Centers are usually the shortest guy on the OL.
