It’s for the best. They really shouldn’t keep any coaches from the old regime. Even Evero and the defensive staff, it’s questionable and could create divisions in the coaching staff. They need to avoid what happened last season and have a cohesive staff with a single leader. 

Naw, Evero is gone next year anyway as a HC and it’s gives the panthers a 3rd round pick.

We have had some really terrible OL in our history but I'm not sure if any are worse than Zavala.

He might be worse than Nate Chandler and I never thought I'd see anyone worse. A sports writer, upon seeing Nate play for the first time said, "He is like a pillar of ash that disintegrates on contact." Zavala gave Nate a run for his money for Panthers all time worst o-lineman.

Can the Panthers move Ekwonu to Guard already? That will be a positive signal from Dan & Dave. Protect the QB first. Then use timing passes to open up the run. Then dominate with the run & Bozeman/Ekwonu/Moton.

might be in the minority here but I want to give Ickey one more chance at LT. If he sucks ass throughout camp/pre-season then make the switch but He should spend this off-season prepping to play Tackle.

Christensen to LT because I do not think we can draft one that is going to be good enough to start. BC is a very good athlete and he should be ready for LT duties.  He is not a guard.

Probably deserved, but its funny how the perception of Campen went from OL whisperer to dog poo in 1 season.

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt since it only changed when Frank Reich came here, and probably told him to change their blocking scheme to match his playbook, even though our line is built for smash mouth football. But it's all speculation.

Ickey could be an elite LG.  Garbage LT.  Dave knows.  Probably can't get the answer at 33 but let the man cook.

      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...
