So if you're Gettleman, do you listen to what the players want or overrule them?

 

I'm not certain the players would push hard for a guy they know is coming off an injury over a guy who would obviously help the team more, even if they did play with him a couple years ago.  Players seem to be able to separate friendship from a desire to win (meaning $$$) pretty well.

Actually, I saw multiple reports that initially had him playing LG. The only reason I think he is at RG is because that gives him the best opportunity to be a starter.

 

he was a RG at valdosta for his last two years there, playing RT before that, and he's been lining up at RG rotating in with hangartner.

 

not sure where those reports have been saying that he was on the left side because that is pretty much how he is viewed by all i've seen. i can't remember anything being said about any intentions of him going to the left side. they drafted him with the intention of him taking over that spot. he never had a chance to supplant silatolu for the gig and i don't think he was drafted as competition there.

There were a few articles that mentioned that he might compete with Silatolu early in the offseason but with Silatolu stepping up, that obviously isn't an option.

 

Regardless, you get the point.

 

Adding Brandon Moore gives us a lot more options because it allows us to bump Hangarter to his proper place, the backup position.

II'm gonna trust the guy that likes hog mollies more than any fan including mr scot, make the decision.

If it was me making the decision. Knowing that we got to continue to build thus team in the following seasons, and the fact we have young, talented guys to groom. ...I'd pick wharton, as he is talented, and gives us quality at any position we may, or may not be forced to put him in.

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
