Yesterday before practice I saw these two guys chatting.....

Which got me thinking about the current Miami Hurricanes connection for the Panthers.

 

Ken Dorsey was the QB of the 2001-2002 Hurricanes. He went undefeated in 2002 but lost the Championship game. Dorsey had both Jeremy Shockey and Kellen Winslow to throw to... interesting considering the Panthers are stacked at tight end this season. Dorsey should have great insight into QB-TE connections for Cam.

 

His offensive coordinator in Miami? None other than Rob Chudzinski , whose playbook remains somewhat intact for the Panthers. Chudzinski was influential in the Panthers hiring Dorsey as a pro scout in 2011.

 

Greg Olsen missed playing with Dorsey by one year, joining the Hurricanes in 2003. Olsen spent one year at Miami under then Offensive Coordinator Rob Chudzinski. Olsen went on to become a first round draft pick of the Chicago Bears in 2007. In 2011 Olsen joined the Carolina Panthers once again in Chudzinski's offense.

 

Dorsey is well liked within the Panthers organization, and I am told has a real future in the NFL Coaching ranks.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
