BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

[ProcessBlue2]

We still Draft a Tackle at some point. Need options with Moton’s age, Ickeys future, whether Walker returns or not. I would guess Round 2 or 3

I don't hate the idea.  I still would like an OT early but it can be more of a project guy now to replace Moton or LT next year Icky pending...

I think it’s possible and it would be fun but I’m generally pursuing more positional value there.

Dillon Thieneman at 19?!

would love that in trade down. I've been seeing him in the mid to late 20's lately.

Sources: The #Panthers are signing former #Packers LT Rasheed Walker to a 1-year deal worth about $10M.

I'm hoping for Center or Tackle on day 2. Depth and our Oline is so expensive we need a starter on a rookie deal come 2027.

Wonder if the gun charge he's facing had something to do with it. Either way, Twitter seems to think around $10 mil for the 1 year

Also considering the value the Panthers got with a salary about half of what many were expecting for Walker, a solid move by Dan Morgan

Much better than gambling on a rookie Tackle in my opinion.

Still weird he signed a 1 year deal as a young decent LT, I'm surprised someone else didn't offer him a longer term deal...

Maybe Panthers let him know they would extend him if he plays well. He's only 26 and Icky had a bad injury and Moton is getting old

This was one of the more interesting markets for a player. He was clearly the best free agent option at a premium position. But a few teams wondered whether Dan Moore's deal last year ($82M over four) spooked teams, hurting the market more than it helped

WOW

probably the most shocking price of free agency thus far

I’m telling you around the league players that are looking at long term deals on the oline are looking at us. Getting to play next to Damien Lewis, Robert Hunt, and Taylor Moton is a real selling point.
