Mel does not think the kid from Clemson is a top pick.....

The guy is a moron.

I think GMs purposely  feed him inaccurate info to get a kick out of his foolishness.

Ya think?  Jimmy Clausen says hi

 

Its more like organizations pay him to blow smoke up peoples ass so they have a better chance at getting their guy

I hate Mel as much as the next guy. However, save the cam and Luke picks which he obviously got completely wrong (unless he had Luke going earlier which would then make him actually smarter) you can probably argue that every one of his picks would be more useful to us than our draft pick. Hate to play devils advocate here...

Cooks would've been there, we would've picked him.  Sadly, the only player that was available that Mel Mocked to us was Ogbah.  And he was about as useful as Butler this year.

no man i totally get what he's saying like if only the best player in each of these drafts somehow fell to us we would've won these last three superbowls

and i can't help but to feel that it's somehow gettleman's fault that they didn't

    • 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.
