DJ Humphries or Jake Fisher in the 1st

Fisher without a doubt. Better agility, plays with tenacity, and can block on an island.

I'm convinced Humphries looks better because the LG for Miami (don't know his name) plays like a beast. He helps Humphries a lot. Rarely is Humphries asked to block a guy single handedly. That and Duke Johnson is a fantastic runner. Humphries is hyped up right now in my opinion. Good tools but not enough proof that he knows how to use them. Just one guy's opinion.

Humphries plays for Florida. The Miami OT is Ereck Flowers

Holy hell yeah I did get them confused. It was Flowers that I felt that way about. I like Humphries. LSU gave him some fits but I do like his style. Still would take Fisher though.

Thanks for the correction.

i see us taking ANY player other than MLB or QB in the first so long as Gman thinks they are the best player. 

 

Pretty much that.

 

I'm not really worried about who we draft as Gman has such a nice tendency to pick up UDFAs that fit real well.  We will get some good players this offseason, that I know.

I'd be comfortable with both. 

 

If we grab one of them, I'd expect Strong and the top-3 to be gone at WR and Collins/Scherff at OT.  I wouldn't sleep on some of these DTs though (that may sound crazy)

 

I really don't like the DE value in round 1 though.  I just don't see any 3 down 4-3 DEs until Preston Smith in the draft.  Maybe Odi and Dupree.  I don't know where DJ and Fisher two would stand on DG's big board with Waynes/Johnson/Collins at CB. 

 

I can realistically see teams placing DJ and Fisher ahead of Flowers, Peat, and Clemmings.

    • 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.
    • Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
