Maser molding O-Line

Panthers offensive line coach Mike Maser has plenty of work to do this off-season and he knows it. When training camp begins in late July, only one starter, center Jeff Mitchell, will return to his 2003 position. That is because three starting offensive linemen from last year are no longer with the team, one has changed positions, and last season's top reserve is recovering from an injury.
