"Panthers need to address the Center position and the OT play will come"

[Snake]

Well that's a conflicting report. It was said in the past Paradise was doing to much. If you ask me both need to be upgraded. 

[Icege]

So Creed Humphrey in the 2nd and Nick Harris in the 3rd?

Thx Moose ♡

Trai Turner has looked pretty bad this year too. Amazing what a difference a bad center makes.

[Waldo]

All five of the oline spots should be assesed and earned. Its not just the center playing poorly. Turner is underplaying his contract, Motton looks regresed, the LT spot is not close to fixed or good enough, our LG was a jag, our Center is aweful and Willaims is an example of why you don't bank on a player improving. How he started the year at LT through camp and into the season is beyond an incrimination of the coaches ability in assessment of telent and personel management. We make anyone look like an all star when they are going against whoever we have lined up at LT except for a few games where there was no tape on Little and Daley.

I think it is reasonable to improve this unit in the offseadon but im not expecting a 180° simply because we are getting a Center that isn't tossed around like a ragdoll. I do think we could turn it from this years debacle into a top unit in 2 years with a little luck and some quality player evaluations.

C LG is the biggest need for our line for sure.  

Center, yes, but GVR is capable as our LG for right now, the guy is a monster in run blocking.

But yeah, I thought we should have taken that center from NC State with our first round pick this past year. I think it would be wise to look at center for first pick this year.

He sure has.
I don’t know that’s on anybody but Trai however...seen a few games where he either did so,thing totally dumb or whiffed on his guy

he got paid 

he’s glad to be here

Yep I just finished posting about needing the offensive line to be like Dallas and we will be competitive in most games no matter who the quarterback is.

Dak Prescott is not that good, average at best but his offensive line makes him look like “almost a star”

we do need another Center, but I will also say that Moton or the rookies we have are not Gross even Blindside and we do need a true starting left tackle and at least another guard.

Draft LT and Center and a Guard,..

[LinvilleGorge]

I don't know what to make out of our OL situation. The entire OL looks terrible. We know Moton has played well in the past and is still young. Same with Turner. We know Van Roten has at least been serviceable in the past. Unfortunately, it looks like the knee injury ruined Daryl Williams. Little and Daley both looked good early on but that was short lived and both have struggled with injuries.

I'm glad I'm not the one having to do these evaluations because

trai turner looks like he ate his whole family at thanksgiving, and they're large people

[raz]

we need 2 guards and a center first.  that's my thoughts.  maybe qb in the 1st, or if there is a no brainer pick, then hit ol hard.   dline can wait for once.

Everyone here was pumped when Hurney signed Paradise, said Elway was an idiot for letting him go... 

And we’re still looking for Ryan’s replacement

Not everyone.  Just those that thought Hurney is the greatest talent evaluator on the planet.

I thought Paradis was a great value signing, hes played very poorly. Just like the DL, hes getting man-handled. The entire OL/DL is getting tossed around. They all look/play WEAK. Never seen this before, even the Fua/Irvin DL and Bell/Chandler units played with better strength. 

Im a big Joe Kenn fan, but he deserves part of blame along with Washington and Matsko. btw- Kalil, Peppers, and TD leaving may have played a role if they supplied these guys with the "good" stuff too.

 

[Tepper's Chest Hair]

 

A huge issue with Paradis is scheme and the coaching staff forcing him to play in a way he *never* had to play in Denver.
