Not even close to the worst line panthers have had. Do you remember having shitty Dlinemen playing Online?

Sam is what he is at this point in his career. You don't need year FIVE to know this 

I'd happily take this OLine over what we ran out there last year:

LT - Byron Bell

LG - Andrew Norwell

C - Ryan Kalil

RG - Trai Turner

RT - Nate Chandler

I didn’t get that reading between the lines. He only mentioned a tackle as why someone mighty trade up.

If I’m reading between the lines I might say that his story about Wilson could mean that Howell (or Strong, ick) are targets. All of our interest in the other QBs might be a smokescreen. He said they stayed away from Wilson after seeing him a lot at the Senior Bowl.

Again, that’s an interpretation. Since we have pick 6 and no day two picks, not as much need to pretend versus a guy who was going to last into the 3rd.

Very keen insight.  He did not mention Howell, but he mentioned Ridder.  I think they saw Howell in Charlotte a time or two during the year.  Just speculation, but he could be the guy if we trade back.

Right now, DJ and Bucky have the top 3 Edge guys going 1, 2, 3.  That means Icky and Neal are probably next--so does a team want Sauce Gardner?  Willis?  etc.  We could trade back.

I see Seattle trading with the Giants to get Willis.  If so, that would leave Sauce and a top T.  We could trade back with that.  Watch Philly.  They may want to move up.

About those of you wanting a LT--me too, but BC can play there and our problems were mostly G/C issues. I think, when all is said and done, BC goes to LT and Bozeman and Corbett start with Paradis and Moton.  That is the OL.

Paradis isn't an NFL calibre player anymore. Hasn't been since his plane first landed in Charlotte.

Paradise isn't on the team any longer. I assume you meant Elfien. My guess is..

Lt, BC

LG, Bozeman/Elf

C, Bozeman/Elf

RG, Corbett

RT, Moton

If Elflein is LG with BC at LT, we won’t be running downhill or short yardage on the left side. It’s a lineup like this that still pisses me off that we didn’t take Trey Smith over a shitty long snapper.

Yeah. I'm hoping at worst we find a linemen to push Elf to the bench.

Paradis isn’t on the roster anymore

He also just said they purposely avoided Russ in SEA after the Senior Bowl because they knew they were going to take him and didn't want teams picking up on it.

Hard to really evaluate anything draft-wise at this point.

 Exactly...Scott Fitterer is playing his cards close to his vest so there is numerous ways the draft could go.

He said they interviewed Russell Wilson at the senior bowl, and then the combine, we kind of stayed away from him. We knew we were going to go down that road. And we just kind of played it really quiet with him and we took him.

So, he was the guy that tried to talk someone else out of Wilson. That's great 

And proceeded to suck in every draft since, aside from Tyler Lockett who was a good pick. Tepper just heard the Seahawks name and was like oh yeah that's a good team must be a smart guy!

I would like to obtain a great quarterback and left tackle in the draft but it will be almost impossible to draft both.

I could live with the offensive line you mentioned in 2022 , so if we have a chance to take one of this years three top rated quarterbacks i feel we should.

Next year we may be drafting outside the top ten, so considering some teams will probably move down to take quarterbacks, this year may be the best time to draft one.

    • Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.
    • Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on. 
    • Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
