I remember him getting his hands on his man and pushing him basically to the far sideline on a running play in his first preseason.  I don't remember the team but it was their first team defense.

He was dominant when he was healthy, a prototype mauler of a right tackle.  Sucks he was another NFL coulda been if it wasn't for injuries.

e: I think it was against the Colts, just looked up the preseason schedule from 08.

Yeah his power and technique were elite, and defenders couldn't see around him so Williams and Stewart would make huge gains.

Either Byron Bell or Nate Chandler

 

 But in all seriousness, I would say Oher.  He came in and instantly gave us what we had been missing in that position, did more than we could’ve asked for.  That damn concussion man.

It is unquestionably not Oher.

Travelle Wharton was decent when he had that job, although he was better as a guard

Travelle was probably the most unappreciated offensive linemen we ever had.  The guy could play every position on the line without any question.

So Travelle would be my choice.  I like Oher but he was only with us for a short while.

Was at the game where he got concussed. The whole game unraveled from there along with his career. Hate it for him and us.

Honestly, second best tackle might be Moton.

He is quiet, he does his job, but he's been surrounded by crap ever since he earned the starting role so people probably think less of him than they should. Moton is the lone bright spot in the garbage heap that is our line that Rhule has constructed.

People are overvaluing Otah. Dude was never healthy and he had more penalties in less than half the games that Moton has started:

Brockermeyer then Jones. Stuessie wasn’t terrible.

Brockermeyer and then Stuessie.  Brockermeyer was solid, though not elite and Stuessie's problem was false starts and holds, IIRC.  Todd's protection was actually decent when he wasn't drawing flags.

when on the field and healthy?  Otah. 

career in Carolina? My money would be on Moton ending up w/ the 2 spot.  That obviously OTs in general.  

just left side?  Wharton IMO is underrated since he was primarily a OT.   He is my #3 on my all time OL in Carolina list.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
