You keep him at LT and extend Brady.  Brady at center next year, worst case.  Moton has one more year on his contract.  Keep drafting linemen every year for depth and another starter if necessary.  This is a good problem to have.  Either Icky gets better at picking up speed rushers or we are prepared for the future with moving him to RT and plugging in BC or another draft pick.

I'm more in favor of giving guys with a lot of talent the time to learn and get better, especially if we can keep the same system for more than one year.

I'm curious whether one of those guards can play right tackle.

I think this is basically just tinkering with no possible good end result. If you wanted to try for that in the offseason, I would be fine with that but if you don't like Ekwonu's feet at LT, you REALLY aren't going to like Hunt/Lewis, IMO.

A smarter move would be to eventually shoot for an eventual move for Ikey to RT when Moton retires/moves on and then get a good(needs to be better) LT in the draft.

At least if you go that route you are planning for the future.

      Off Season Thread

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
