Travelle Wharton not retiring

[hepcat]

You'd think it'd be very likely he's re-signed...but who knows these days

Wharton don't do it. Anytime you go to another you team you get injured. Stay here in Carolina buddy.

We've gotten so thoroughly sloppy if we're celebrating a journeyman free agent guard and below replacement level tackle saying he's not going to retire. This team is so bipolar. At our positions of strength, we're viciously strong. At our positions of weakness, we're incomparably weak. Our DE, DT, LB, QB units are so incredibly talented and our DB, WR, OL so devastatingly weak that it's annoying that we haven't course corrected.

A journeyman back up guard?  He's been a Panther his entire career other then one year he was with bengals.  He's hardly been a backup either.  Travelle's been a career starter.  So I think fans would be sad to see him go,  I think he's the the longest tenured Panther now.

 

He played OK last year...if anything Wharton is very valuable depth because he's played tackle and guard.

Bell/Wharton/Kalil/Silatolu/RT

 

Silatolu would be much better on the right side.  Wharton is already an established LG and the line play improved when he went in.  There might be some merit in the fact that Bell is left handed and would probably play better at LT than RT.  Physically he has all the tools to be successful so I am of the wait and see variety.

WHat some people may not remember about him is, He was drafted as a tackle. Later moved to LG. When with the panthers, anytime Gross went down they move Wharton to LT. If we do not have an answer at LT, he would be a band aid until we find one no more no less. However, he is a better LG than a LT. But I would still take him  over moving Bell to LT thats for damn sure.

Wharton is a Panther veteran that can start a LG and move to LT if needed.  At worst, he would add veteran depth on the line.  He needs to retire as a Panther.  He does whatever is asked and does not cause problems. That enough fo me.

lol this putrid offseason has sucked so much ass that our bestest news a week into free agency is our washed-up left guard not retiring

Wharton is coming off of his best year for us, he graded out as the number 3 over all guard in the league, we NEED him back....that beiugn, said we NEEDED  lot of players back but obviously for whatever reasons that hasn't been on our mandate this off season os I am having some doubts that he res signs.  His camp just recently released some info saying that the Panthers haven't reached out or contacted him this offseason....smh

[stirs]

Wonder what else the @raveninsider can tell us?

[Riverboat Ron]

Wouldn't surprise me at all if our OL looks like this.

Chandler/Silatolu/Kalil/Kugbila/Bell

[General_Purr]

good 

 

travelle is solid as fug. veteren experience and a big body.

 

Was hoping he would stay one more year atleast.. He is one of the most underrated linemen IMO

[El Chingon]

Travelle will play in the NFL next season but not for us.
