I have huge issues with him. A huge 17 million dollar issue with him. As well as one for 20 million dollars (Jakes Deal). I don't care that it was to save cap we resigned a guy coming off of his worst game as a pro, just stupid. I want the whole house cleaned (except maybe Gregory and that College Scouting staff). The main reason we got this guy was to keep us in cap safety. He tags a guy with obvious motivation issues as well as a very inconsistent player to the largest single year contract in the NFL. In my eyes the single dumbest move in his tenure.

I think he has and can draft good talent. His only major mistake that I know of is that he was trying to force a superbowl season this season and it is currently biting us in the ass (read tagging Peppers etc.).

IMO of course.

I wouldn't exactly call his drafts recently a great success. He hits on the 1st rounders and occasionally a late round guy. Look this year we have one rookie contributing significantly a 7th round pick and thats only as nickel corner. From last year the only pick with any good extensive playing time this year is Jeff Otah (and he has not looked all that great). Of course J stew isn't getting many carries and Otah is being ask to be a finesse T in the pass game which he is not. All in all this guy is not that good at anything really .

Fair enough, I'll have to look into the bust to success ratio of other teams mid round picks. My gut says that Hurney's ratio is going to be similar to all teams not named the Steelers.

IMO fox and hurney are a package deal. if one goes the others gotta go too

I think they are joined at the hip!

As for checking other teams middle round draft picks don't bother, there are too many of them playing for other teams compared to very few on the Panthers roster.

I think he has done a decent job

A decent job maybe good enough for you.

BTW any late rounders among those players. Those guys were all 1st and 2nd rounders.

      Canales Addresses CB position

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I think they are holding back to see what they have in the young guys, but I think it's a near certainty at some point they will bring someone else in. Right now (assuming we keep 5 CBs which is normal), the top 5 IMO are: 1) Jaycee Horn 2) Mike Jackson 3) Chau Smith-Wade 4) Shemar Bartholomew  5) Akayleb Evans   Obviously Jaycee is the alpha in that room and paid as such. Need him to stay healthy and continue to play at a Pro-Bowl level. Mike Jack did pretty well all things considered last year, and they gave him lower-level starter money. Fair deal for both sides.  Smith-Wade showed some promise as a slot CB. I think low-key he's a lock for the team. Different size and skill set than the other CBs. Shemar Bartholomew was the most sought after waiver claim last preseason. Was 5th CB most and inactive most of last year. Had a few defensive and ST snaps. Nothing of note good or bad but too small a sample size to make any judgment. Akayleb Evans was a 2022 4th Rounder for the Vikings. Has started 19 games (including Week 18 for the Panthers) in his career and played in 43. Was pretty good in 2023 before getting injured and falling down the depth chart last year. There's some other guys on the outside looking in, but until they show more in training camp I dont see anyway they make the 53. And only Jaycee, Mike Jack, and Smith-Wade are locks to make this roster IMO.
