Mr. Scot

Regarding Gipson...

As a quarterback?

Former Panthers looking for work... - T Greg Little (Texans) - QB PJ Walker (Bears) - TE Dan Arnold (Eagles) - RB John Lovett (Steelers) - P Michael Palardy (Commanders) Didn't know Little was in Houston now...

Speaking of... (no, we don't need him back)

Definitely one of the best coached. Jeff Stiutland knows his stuff.

Hell, we've had to release good players we'd like to keep ourselves (and will have to again). Sometimes it's just the numbers game

I remember both of those...yikes ...and Thomas has stone hands. If only you could fuse the two of them you might have an all-around tight end.

And if the team pairs Ickey and Zavala, they'll catch up... possibly quickly. And again, you've got the question of which is the better line combination. Ickey / Christensen / Corbett with Zavala as the utility guy Or Ickey / Zavala / Corbett with Christensen as the utility guy My vote is for Option B

And they both might continue to make progress... ...somewhere else

Gotcha, similar first names. Also similar careers (i.e. nothing special)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't Charlton the guy who dropped an f-bomb on stage right after getting drafted? His career is another one that hasn't exactly been anything to write home about.

Yeah, kind of a weird thing to say, especially regarding a team that has Sean Gilbert in their history.

Their knowledge of each other is something to build on. Throw into that Ickey can help Zavala Make the adjustments and they can build together. Offensive linemen would tell you that left guard is a lot easier to learn than right guard. In fact, it's considered the easiest position on the entire line. That's one reason I'd rather have Corbett on the right.

He certainly still has a chance to have a nice (or at least decent) career. I just wouldn't bet on that happening here, especially not with the system change.

Regardless of comparisons to Grier, PJ's career has been nothing special. He's had a couple of memorable moments, but so have a lot of guys that were never heard from again after they had "that one game".

Walker was a player with way more experience in the league but still had to fight for a roster with a guy who was just getting started. When they had their preseason battle, pretty much everyone agreed Grier performed better, but Walker had Rhule in his corner, so... Now just a short time (and good coaching) later, Grier is looking way better. Meanwhile, PJ is still a guy who will, as the saying goes "make big plays...for both teams". Would you honestly think PJ is capable of the kind of performance Grier put on last night (even in preseason)?

Should also add that a positive of moving him to the left is he'll be lining up next to a guy he's already got great chemistry with.
