Imagine trying to work in PR for this organization right now...

The fluff is in overdrive, I had a slight moment of weakness were they started me thinking "well the NFC south is soo bad......." 

3 win team even with a great draft.

Corbett has always been a good, lineman.  

I know that natural response is, "deep, he's a gard, he can't play center, derp!" 

I honestly don't see how he could be worse than what we had at center this last season.   Most NFL linemen have position flexibility.   Instead of stating he sucks being a center before he plays a snap for us...why don't you let our veteran line come together.  Corbett 8s going to have 2 good guard on either side of him. That's going to help not just him, but both our tackles too.  

I also wouldn't rule out the team drafting a center if they get the opportunity to do so. 

Dan and Dave have busted their tails to improve the oline, which was horrible at best, last season.  

I personally am looking forward to seeing the starting 5 come together. 

You win and lose in the trenches. I like the efforts they have put in. All quality lineman.  Our LT will benefit greatly to not just consistent, but improved guard play by the man beside him. 

This oline, on paper, has the talent to be the best this franchise has ever had.

I am most concerned about the exchanges when you have a guy who has not done it full time. 

Shouldn’t I be? Bad snaps errant hikes, all that stuff, not a concern? 

I understand that whoever takes the job is in the best position a new guy could have in terms of having those guards on each side. Except one of those guards has to cover/support the questionable LT in pass sets.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
