With a "good foundation" in place, Panthers are ready to see where O-line and Bryce Young can go

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.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
