link:The NFL’s 11 best offensive tackles (usatoday.com)

A second-round pick out of Western Michigan in the 2017 draft, Moton really came on in his second NFL season, allowing two sacks, one quarterback hit, and 25 quarterback hurries in 2018. Last season was his best, though, both in metrics and on film. While he did allow three sacks, he gave up no quarterback hits and 16 quarterback hurries in 657 pass-blocking reps. And if you wonder about his power as a run-blocker… well, ask Falcons defensive lineman John Cominsky about that as Moton pushed Cominsky out of the play and out of the screen last season.

Serious Question for anybody...

Is Moton better than prime-Darryl WIlliams on the right side?

I can't even remember how good Williams was before his injury. 

Opinions anyone?

Abso-fuggin-lutely!

And I actually think DW played well right up to the SB.

So in typical Panthers fashion we're going to fail to resign him at the end of the year now aren't we?

I really love the guy, but until he signs a new contract the future of our offensive line is a dumpster fire. They're all either old under performing players, or young under performing player and then Morton.

We gambled Cams career on a bad offensive line and lost. We gambled on it with Allen under center and lost. Same with Teddy, and now we're gambling on it with Darnold.

Morton absolutely has to get resigned, and we absolutely have to spend more quality picks on quality offensive linemen instead of hoping for the best year after year.

Can't argue with any of this. Seen this story play out enough times over the last several years. It's "Moton" btw.

LOL, suuuure. I got moton at the 8-11 best RT in the game, hogwash hes the best 11th best overall. Did moton's agent slip this guy a 100$? Following up with what I posted in the other threads

Ramczyk >> Moton

 

Simply you can not pay every single spot TOP money, somebody has make the hard choices. RT is not in the top half of "pay that man his money" positions. If moton was a yearly top 1-3 RT, I would change my tune, but hes not. Plus given the big brains at panthers office have already paid LB Shaq and RB CMC too much, it would add to the problem of wasting money at lesser-valued spots to pay Moton 18-20 per for 8th best RT play.

Right now, with the tag, Moton is the 4th highest paid RT.  Any long term contract is probably north of there.

Are you saying we shouldn't re-sign him?

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm not saying he should be working in the NFL. He did deserve some criticism as DC there. But Kyle Shanahan certainly did use him as a convenient scapegoat. Now there is no one left to throw under the bus. Anyways he could find his way back to the league in some capacity who knows. But he's old school and in the NFL you either adjust or you get left behind. All the same no hard feelings toward him he's a good guy.

      Is it too early to lock up Horn to a long term deal?

      By CRA · Posted

      he has barely suited up for 50% of our games.  It matters pending how much of our cap and resources go that way.  If he cost in the ballpark of a Surtain? No thank you.  Let someone else  And as far we know what happens when we let talent walk away or trade them…..that’s a mixed bag.   should we of paid Norman, Bradberry at CB? They probably had earned the right to be called better than Horn at that moment of the decision.  Do we regret that? Do we regret Star walking? Can take it back to Spoon.  Flip side is probably Peppers.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By frankw · Posted

      We need to get better in the redzone. And yes that is an issue that involves all the moving parts. Oline receivers QB and playcalling. But Bryce himself has to lead the charge on that or surely we could face another blowout in one of these upcoming games. Every team no matter how good they are is going to face an opponent that imposes their will on them and requires the same in response. Those are the games where we have got to capitalize on drives. Honestly I get the sense that the Chiefs on some level overlooked us.  So while I am pleased we were as competitive as we were it certainly remains to be seen if this was the beginning for something new or just an anomaly. I think that's a perfectly fair take at this juncture.
