Panthers Are Trading OL Trai Turner To LAC For LT Russell Okung

Another Matt Kalil?

[NcPsa10]

Okung  signed a four-year, $53 million contract with the Chargers that included $25 million guaranteed. He stands to make a base salary of $13 million in 2020. 

Okung has one year left on his deal with a base salary of $13 million. Despite missing a number of games in 2019, he was a key member of the Chargers’ offensive line and his absence following a pulmonary condition was severely felt

In 2019, Okung started six games for the Chargers at left tackle. While he did not play enough snaps to qualify, his 62.4 rating by Pro Football Focus would have rated him as the No. 55 offensive tackle out of 82 qualifying players.

Reminder that Hurney just traded up in the second round to select Little, the future franchise LT.

Another bad look on Hurney

He’s a better LT than Kalil when healthy, but I think the bigger picture is a vet to help the younger guys this year and then a lot of free cap space next season when his contract is up. We aren’t tied to him long term like Kalil

he's terrible

chargers fan friend of mine says we can have him for free if we agree to take back thomas davis too

Herniay and Rhule- "IF we have no idea what we are doing, no one else will!!!"

just weird trading for 31 with a heart problem @ 13 million for just one year. And hes is the meh level of playing

[Mvp2014]

just awful if true

I’m all for trading mid to low picks for solid players. They’re if he can start at LT and be decent, it’s likely better than we’d get out of a 4th+ pick anyway, probably even a 3rd.

He’s not who we want starting. And I don’t see him resigning (certainly hope not) Would rather have the picks, even a 5th. I’m fine doing this if we are sending a player we aren’t planning to keep around though. Especially if it helps us free up cap space next season

For the life of me, this better be panthers 6th for Okung and 7th type of deal. 13 million?!??! 31 years old??!?!? ok at this stage???!?!
