Shaun Smith (DT) released by the Lions...


CatMan72

Would be a great pickup ( compared to whats available ), as he was the projected starter for the Lions this season. I can see a team with more cap room like St.Louis who are also in need of a DT with the loss of Carriker picking him up..if he wants to play for a good team this year he will come in for a visit..

i wouldn't mind a complete nutcase. i would like it. we just have to tell him that every QB he sees in a non-panthers uniform is brady quinn and every other person running the ball is the browns GM and every offensive lineman in front of him is mangini.

easy. he's like the waterboy.

If you told me this guy would have been availible to pick up as soon as Kemo went down I would have never fretted about our dline situation. If he is signed he would immediately become our best dlinemen. Hes a player. Get him on a decent team and I would expect his attitude to change.

Was this a recent cut? Wonder if we went down to 51 while trying to get him? Hummmmmmm. Ok i know better dont get your hopes up with this front office.

OK, I checked out his stats, not the greatest in the world, but he does have the size we need inside right now. Plus, if he were to come to Carolina and be a good fit, he is still young enough (28) to keep around a while and develop into our system, which should not be hard at this point.

    • 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.
