Just said on nfl network that Corral is having surgery.  Rhule says it a major injury.

Elflein Daley and Erving are all still here a few plays away from starting last I checked. 17 games is a long season.

And Erving is already injured.

Yes, every team is a few plays away from playing their awful depth. Also, I don't think both Daley or Erving make the team if, in fact, either one do. I do think that Elf is a lock though.

Only delusional Panthers fans look at this OL depth and think we're looking good. Our starting center is already hobbled and it isn't September.

We collected too many f%cking QBs and that led to Matt out there running around with worthless o-linemen from our disastrous season and a fatass RG who was NOT in shape in any way after that being a known issue.

*** he can’t even get reps now. So did someone step on him?

They will have to draft one anyway.   Sam won't be here and Corral will just be another rookie that has no playing time but may know the playbook, assuming the same staff is here.

If rhule is gone there's a real good chance the qb room will be overhauled as well. Corral will be the only qb on the roster under contract and he will have zero further development when the new staff roles in.

Fun times.

Corral's injury certainly makes that more likely, if not inevitable. A lot depends on Mayfield (both performance and new 2023 contract vs. our cap space).  If he doesn't work out or we can't afford him, we have little choice but to draft somebody and maybe start them.

The upside is that if we are in that situation because Mayfield does not work out, it is a chance for an almost complete purge of a QB room that could best be described as patchwork (and that would be a compliment given the Mayfield assumption attached to that).  You'd have to think that would be with a new coaching staff in place, but who knows?

He's our third string QB currently. He's going to play behind 3rd string oline the majority of the time. This argument doesn't make sense.

Well since we didn't play our 1st string offense at all minus Icky and Baker and Sam sat out.  Being 3rd QB would have put him with the best O-line if he had played the 1st two quarters.

Rhule has made it a point this preseason that Corral wasn't getting much Reps.  The least he could have done was give him a competent line and give him a running chance.  

A side note, Corral lasted longer than PJ at the goal line.  Outside of Mays none of those players that were on the field will be in our 53.

Is there a single team in the NFL that has great OL depth? 

Every team is looking for lineman. The league doesn't have many great offensive lineman right now, it's in a big slump. Partially why the trend has been to draft mobile QB's who can improvise and launch downfield the last 5 years

It's amazing so few understand this....Realistically even teams with good offensive lines only roll 7 decent players deep... same for the dline....
