Panthers met with Miami OT Ereck Flowers

[Growl]

Is the "i just dont see an elite blue chip prospect" crowd here yet because I've been dreading their arrival.

[WOW!!]

Flowers and Peat are my 2 favorite OT"s right now..

Not a lot of love for Ereck Flowers out at tackle right now at the combine

Ty Schalter @tyschalter 9h

I'm writing right now and watching Combine in the

background, but I don't see Ereck Flowers showing a lot of

fluidity.

Really like what I see watching OT Ereck Flowers on film. Massive frame, long arms, quick feet, and keeps his legs moving through contact

Ereck Flowers looks good so far, especially taking his youth into account. Best natural RT in the draft.

Ereck Flowers fits the Bengals mold for right tackles. Huge.

Better run blocker

Didn't get the amount of love Ereck Flowers was getting pre-

combine and he looked pretty poor in the slide step drill. He's

a guard.

Miami's Ereck Flowers downright ugly in kickslide drill.

Incredibly overextended, not on 45 degree angle. Beat bad.

South Florida Sun-Sentinel Omar Kelly @ OmarKelly 12h

Ereck Flowers is today's new Orlando Franklin. Decent at OT,

good at OG IMO. Stiff .

Ereck Flowers didn't look smooth at all in the drills.

hogshaven.com Paul Conner @ P_Hazard 13h

Looks like my worry about Flowers' kickstep is validated

NFLMocks.com Joe Wedra @ JoeWedra 12h

I may have to re-evaluate Ereck Flowers ' tape after seeing

him today . Not a good performance.

Wade Keyte III @WadeKeyte 12h

Ereck Flowers losing money today

Ereck Flowers 1st round hype: I don't get it. I see a Guard .

[bandu]

this kid has attitude and strength which is way beyond teaching finesse.look finesse is technique #1 and footwork #2.so can Matsko transform this kid into a mountain?

[Kuech the Sneak]

He said that he thought he impressed the panthers with his football IQ on the board, something very important to gettleman

[ThinkAboutIt]

Slow feet, poor center of gravity, topples over way too easily in the clips that I saw...not impressed in the clips that I saw.

[Mr. Scot]

That Vine clip was Byron-Bellish.

That Vine clip was Byron-Bellish.

 

Some of his YouTube reels are even worse. Dude is top-heavy.

Todd McShay's thoughts after watching the combine:

Ereck Flowers , OT, Miami (FL): He's a massive right tackle prospect at 6-6, 329 pounds, with long arms (34.5 inches) and excellent strength -- his 37 bench press reps were the most in his class, which is pretty remarkable given how long his arms are. His times weren't great, with a 5.31 40, but not bad when you consider his size. He didn't do the jumps or shuttles, so he'll need to do those at his pro day.

Team fits: Same as Clemmings: Rams (#10), Browns (#12 and #19), Saints (#13), Texans (#16), Lions (#23), Panthers (#25).

(for Clemmings, who he called a "right tackle prospect whose game is built on power in the run game, and who needs work in pass protection," his team fits were: "Any team looking for a right tackle drafting in the 10-25 range. The Rams at No. 10 is probably a little early, but they could be in the mix. The Browns (#12 and #19), Saints (#13), Texans (#16), Lions (#23) and Panthers (#25) also make sense in the first round.")

Jake Fisher is the only prototype LT in the draft IMO.  I think he's going to go a lot higher than people think.  I'd love to have him.
