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.

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'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.

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

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.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
