OL

With as bad as it looked yesterday, what do you chalk it up to? Just a bad game? Or do you think it's schematic? Lack of chemistry? Or personnel?

I would be in favor of kicking Bell to the inside to RG and give Campbell a shot at starting at RT. I've never been a huge Hangartner fan, and I think that shift could have a positive effect on the entire unit. Silatolu should be fine and is young, but he had a rough outing yesterday. But yesterday, I think the problems started with the interior line.

No to campbell. He has a mental condition that impede's his ability to learn on the fly. The reason he was so unsuccessful in oakland is because they moved him around, leave him at once position.

Bell played fine, it was our 3 interior lineman that dropped the ball.

Hangman is probably the least physically gifted of these three, but the big issue was just lack of communication and whiffing assignments. Whenever they all got their guy on a clean block it worked out fine, way WAY too many guys got in untouched on a consistent basis though. This happened in the Jets preseason game. These 3 guys are not on the same page and need to figure it out before the Saints* game.

Campbell has been playing tackle the whole preseason. Left and right.

Campbell is our backup RT. He wouldn't be switching positions and Bell has the body and ability to excel inside, IMO. And his "mental condition" didn't appear to affect him at all during the preseason. He looked really good.

Also, is anyone not impressed we didn't keep a close game with ten fuggin rushing yards? If not for that blocked punt, we would have won. Cam threw a fluke pick and threw up another in desperation mode.

If not for all the reasons they played poorly, they actually played well?....that sure is reassuring.

Well, I think our OL gets off to a slow start every year, as evidenced by the run production week to week. But, I don't know that their DL is that good just yet. A lot of the problems we had were with the extra blitzers and not so much the DL, at least from what I saw.

McCoy is a very talented DT and clayborn looks good as well. If it weren't for Suh overshadowing McCoy we would have heard MUCH more about him pre draft. Also notice that last season when the bucs completely collapsed it coincided with Mccoy being injured.

The O-Line was the worst group of our team yesterday, and Hangman was our worst O-lineman. Why not move Garry Williams from backup tackle to starting RG? G-WIll has proved he can be effective as a starting lineman in the past and I can't comprehend why he shouldn't get the nod after Hangartner's awful performance.

All in all, I thought Gross definitely played the best game and showed a lot of effort. It's hard to grade Kalil's effort because he was often pulling ahead onto the linebackers while DeAngelo was getting tackled 3-4 yards in the backfield.

    • 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.
    • Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.
