some love for Cade Mays


Recommended Posts

How nice would it be for a franchise that has had years long woes along the offensive line to have Cade Mays and the guy #2 on that list on a rookie contract.

Anyone suggesting this is irrelevant might as well call up the Panthers and ask to get put on the payroll in some capacity because why be an unpaid sycophant?

All the huddle is going to see is Frazier number 2

No, some of us will see Humphrey 1 and Frazier 2. We know about Frazier but don’t forget that when C was a huge hole without Kalil, we took TMJ right before Humphrey. Lots of us in here wanted OL, OL and more OL that draft but we liked Erving and Elflein better. Could have had Slater, Humphrey, Smith, Moton and even BC anchoring the OL for years. Could have had Garrett Wilson and $150M for DL as well. It’s truly groundbreaking how bad that Fitterer dude was.

With as much of a crap shoot as the draft can be, it is pretty good for any round pick imo.  Hopefully he is our center for the future and we can scratch that off the list.

It's hard to overstate how important an offensive line is to a QBs performance and development.

If there was one overriding failure during Cam's run, it was the fact we invested so little overall in his protection.

The value of giving Bryce good protection, especially in the interior, is paramount.

I genuinely cannot remember a year where we had this much Oline talent and depth.

I am not sure if we have done 

enough on defense to be great, but the offense has no excuses.

We were spoiled by the good Kalil for a long time, and we forgot how important a good and intelligent center can be.

People were not that high on Mays during the season.  I saw some good stuff from him and felt that we have our center.   He and Hunt are tight, fwiw.  When the good players accept you, it is because they know and trust you.  I am not sold on Corbett as the starter--Mays, in my view, earned it.

    • Why would we not be contenders? As long as Bryce plays like he did when he came back, we absolutely can be contenders...that is...   if the defense plays better... which is why adding someone like Ramsey when we have a QB on a rookie deal and can afford it makes sense IMO. No one thought of the Commanders being contenders last year or the Texans the year before and so on and so forth. Top-end QB play, especially for a guy on a rookie deal, changes everything in terms of timelines. Regardless of what this board thinks, I hope the front office is willing to he aggressive in thks window we currently have with a rookie QB deal  
    • Would absolutely love to have him. I dont think he would require more than a 5th rounder. The biggest thing with his contract is the amount of guaranteed money. As long as they can work out and scenario where the Panthers aren't on the hook for a lot of that, I think it's a no-brainer. The Panthers can come up with $20M at the drop of a hat with restructuring Moton's contract, so there definitely isn't an issue from a money perspective. Jaycee paired with Ramsey along with Mike Jack would give us one of the best CB groups in the league. The one caveat I see is that safety still remains our biggest current weakness. We need a starting caliber S more than CB, simply put. But adding someone like Ramsey would be amazing as long as the compensation made sense. Ramsey could also play for FS snaps also. I also dont understand this nonsense about being seasons away. We have a QB on a rookie deal who was playing at an elite level to end last season. Within reason, now is absolutely the time to make moves like trading for Ramsey.
    • He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.
