I thought that too. I was about half serious, but poo, you’d never have another question about the position.

Metchie aside, X aside, as well as Horn, I just don't believe that we're done at receiver this offseason. Why? One word: speed.

I’m fine with letting this play out but if someone connected to the team mentions Byron Bell or starts talking about left handed defensive tackles I’m gonna have an all out panic attack. just sayin

Somthing else to note is defense as a whole is DOWN across the NHL THIS SEASON, although goaltending and defense for us as canes fans seems to be horrible remarkably ours STILL ranks top 10 in both.

Although as I look at the NHL right now, I do think if they can pull their heads from their asses no Florida in the playoffs does represent the Canes best chance of winning a cup.... The Aves record is inflated by how bad the west is this year.... just realized the #9 eastern team (Columbus Blue Jackets) would currently be the #4 team in the west)

I feel like we are backed into having to afford it. When this happened with Icky, it was immediately code red for left tackle. Which did not at all fit with all the careful planning they had surely done to that point in time. Seems to me they are trying to implement their plans without taking the curveball into account. Or are disguising the existence of a plan to account for it. Which they need to do the big reveal on, any time now.

And he had a week old roach coach sushi draft in 24'. Either one could be the norm and the other the anomaly. Let's not crown him as a draft god quite yet.

In a lot of ways it makes sense to just draft a tackle early so they have flexibility with icky's injury and Motons not getting younger. I'd love for them to resign BC cause to me he looks pretty good anywhere they put him

Rods the one who needs to go if they don't win a cup soon, Overall I like the way Tulsky operates, do i wish he had pivoted to several smaller moves instead of going all in on a big acquisition? Obviously. But RBA is the one I'm locked onto, he is too stuck in his ways and if if "his way" can't get somthing done he just triples down and proves his insanity by trying the same stupid crap over and over, the facebook casuals will be like but but but 8 years in a row making the playoffs.... yes we'll guess what we should have at least a cup to show for it, yes only one team wins every year but this year will be the 8th consecutive year making the playoffs.... heck none of us even get excited about that and haven't in four years minimum. Our top guys are nearing the peak of their prime the time is now, but the canes seem content to stand pat and "make the playoffs" anther 5-8 years in a row.

#Panthers TE Tommy Tremble has a $2 million guarantee that is triggered today at 4 p.m. I don’t expect any movement there, fwiw. Tremble is due a $3.67 million base salary this season. He has another $2.4 million in incentives on his deal, per Over the Cap. https://x.com/mike_e_kaye/status/2032117015121391697?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA

If we could somehow get Salyer and Decker I'd take both and trade Stone Forsyth for a barrel of trash can punch.

Our LT plan next season

Trade for Trent Williams

gonna go with 3 guards, I assume. I would say that Morgan is a Hurricane and there is a Hurricane LT , but we cant reach him. I was OK knowing Nijman might be back. BC? will not be ready for camp or first of season. I think we keep Tremble if for no other reason than to help whoever we have out there. It is starting to look a lot like rookie, everywhere you turn.

At this point, I would rather if we can afford him, get the LT from the Packers. Or get Cam Robinson, he had a decent year last year. Then we have options at 19. Sadiq, Theineman, or BPA. We just can not go into this draft HAVING to find out starting LT.

Remember the days when Rhule said said his arms were too short to play LT? Ah the buffoon that Rhule was.

I don’t see ‘that guy’ coming out of these options. It is gonna be a struggle. But knowing we can shuffle them over to the right side is a relief and probably justifies the investment. I hate giving up a chance to take a two contract player at ILB but we are just up against it.

there isn’t a legit backup either. But we’ll be better at TE and nickel.

@toldozer - my nonsensical chalk parlay for entertainment (I hope) most of the day.

We have nobody on our roster right now that should be starting at LT..

It is asking a lot. Please don't put Forsythe out there. If so, I am buying life insurance for Bryce and making myself the beneficiary.

Must be about money. They have a QB on a rookie deal and are cap-strapped. Yikes.

I agree we are and should be looking Tackle at #19... But I'm starting to fear we can't find an immediate starting LT at that spot. Only a few guys I think can come right in and be a starter in this draft. So getting a FA that can start if needed should be priority in my opinion. We can't go into the draft HAVING to find a starter at LT.

I think they might trade up if they can, if they fall in love with one guy, but if you are OK with Lomu and Proctor (I am), then if Freeling is gone, I sit and wait. If we trade up, we likely lose our Will ILB or Center of the future.

I know but this is a serious deal. The guy from Green Bay is there. Top FA option. He is what I’d call half decent, not trying to say he is anything more. We are sitting in a precarious position, with RT probably being an option as a position for him if or when we can upgrade or if Icky somehow comes back whole. So we could use him there in the future. He is a three or four year starter. The longer this draws out with nothing done, the more I see a costly draft day trade up. Rather not.
