The Carolina Panthers are all too aware that they need to surround second-year quarterback Bryce Young with as much talent as possible, and the team took a big step forward in that regard on Monday by agreeing to terms with former Miami Dolphins offensive guard Robert Hunt on a massive deal.

Over four seasons with the Miami Dolphins, Hunt has allowed a total of nine sacks and 61 total pressures, with one sack and five total pressures allowed in 376 pass-blocking snaps. The Dolphins have one of the NFL’s most complex and multi-faceted run game, and Hunt was a bastion of consistency on a line that was a bit all over the place. Which is what Hunt will try and solve in his new home.
Dolphins RG Robert Hunt, who will probably get a $48 million deal in five minutes because I'm writing about him as a free agent, was a bastion of stability in a highly complex run game. Here, he says "Hello!" to DaQuan Jones. pic.twitter.com/QL10INwHvK
