Do the Panthers have the money for best case scenarios?

Other teams are paying their quarterbacks well, and are still able to surround them with adequate talent and coaching.

 

I think with some of the success lately of younger QB's, there are a lot of people under the false impression that we can afford to simply move on from Newton, and be just fine starting whichever generic QB we can find and winning seasons will roll out. That's not going to happen.

 

When you look around the league at the bottom of the barrel teams that have been stuck in mediocrity for years. What's the common theme?

 

Just ask the Browns, Raiders, Jaguars, Bills, Vikings, Texans, Titans, Rams, and the list goes on.

 

Unless fans are intent on witnessing another Cleveland version of going through quarterback after quarterback for the next 15-20 years, we need to build around the talented QB that we have right now for the future. You do not allow him or Luke to leave, it will be catastrophic.

 

Right now there really isn't much hope left that Ron is the head coach to lead this franchise forward. I hate to say that, but it's true.

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
