C Mays / LT Christensen LT vs C Christensen / LT Ekwonu

You keep him at LT and extend Brady.  Brady at center next year, worst case.  Moton has one more year on his contract.  Keep drafting linemen every year for depth and another starter if necessary.  This is a good problem to have.  Either Icky gets better at picking up speed rushers or we are prepared for the future with moving him to RT and plugging in BC or another draft pick.

I'm more in favor of giving guys with a lot of talent the time to learn and get better, especially if we can keep the same system for more than one year.

I'm curious whether one of those guards can play right tackle.

I think this is basically just tinkering with no possible good end result. If you wanted to try for that in the offseason, I would be fine with that but if you don't like Ekwonu's feet at LT, you REALLY aren't going to like Hunt/Lewis, IMO.

A smarter move would be to eventually shoot for an eventual move for Ikey to RT when Moton retires/moves on and then get a good(needs to be better) LT in the draft.

At least if you go that route you are planning for the future.

    • Little worried about Jarvy Shoulder and that torn cuff, it's needed surgery for 2 years now and he's gonna play with it injured again next season.    I like the toughness but would definitely prefer it to be fixed. He's an intritical player on the team going forward.    Also I was high on pain pills last time I wrote about saving cap space but I didn't go into detail cause I wouldn't have been able to do so. "still on a ton of pain medication but not as nearly as many, think I'm down to 23 pills a day from 32 a few days ago, 18 of them are for pain management in some form or another."     But I digress let's get to the point I was trying to make in my last post about saving, I'll now use Jarvis as an example.    Let's say the canes spend 23m of the 28m in space they have available. Then have Jarvis get surgery and put him on LTIR at the start of the regular season.  You let the cap space sit til the trade deadline. At the deadline that cap space would have accural on it and the team can use that space and spend 24m on incoming salary for the rest of the season. Let's say they bring in 5 players and send out two. "player A has an 8m AAV contract" he'd cost Carolina 4m the rest of the season. Player B makes 10 "cost of 5. So forth and so forth.  Using that accural system and the Jarvis LTIR, the Canes could then go into the playoffs with a healthy Jarvis and be 19m over the cap legally for a cup run. The more cap space available at the start of the season, the larger the accural would be at the trade deadline.    That was the first part of what I was going to try and articulate the other day but I'm on 35mg of oxy every 6 hours plus ketorolac and two other pain pills and another for kidney spasms.    Have a wonderful night everyone
