I think the Panthers will keep on the 53-man roster 9 offensive linemen.

So who is "at risk" of being cut?

Cutting Jordan (LG) saves $1m (almost) in cap room. 

Cutting Daley saves about $1m in cap room.

Cutting Erving saves about $2m in cap room.

With that in mind, it is likely the following remain on the roster (Bold are projected starters):

  • Bozeman  (C, G)
  • Corbett (RG)
  • Ekwonu  (LT, G)
  • Chritstensen  (T, G)
  • Moton  (RT)
  • Elflein (LG, C)
  • May  (Swing T, G)
  • D. Brown  (RG)
  • Erving (Swing T, G, C)

I actually think we will keep Erving because he has experience with all 5 positions and cutting him sends $4m to the dead cap and only saves $2m.

My luck, I'd have been the guy stuck in a middle seat between them 😕

True that.  Several years ago I was on a nine hour international flight, stuck between a hogmollie sized young man in the middle seat and the bulk head.  Due to his size, he ‘over flowed’ the arm rest and about a 1/4 of my own seat.  He was sweating profusely throughout the flight and had eaten something pungent before hand.  It made the nine hour flight absolutely unbearable.  It was the only point in my life where I seriously considered ritual seppuku.

Yikes 😳

Love having Ekwonu, Christensen, May and Brown on rookie contracts.  Young, lean, hungry and inexpensive.  Two more drafts like this will build the line beautifully for the future.  This is the way.

Fortunately for you they did not show an Adam Sandler movie during this flight or you may have done it.

Keep the rookies and the new FA's if possible and Moton. Jettison all the rest.

There is no way any of the rookies could be worse than those lazy vets are. They managed to make Moton look human.

It was a dare. $100 bucks to eat some lutefisk and boiled cabbage.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Icege · Posted

      One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By 7CLOWNS · Posted

      “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃
