This guy isn’t worth a 1st?  He’s better than former Tide Landon Collins coming out.  

 

I wouldn't draft any Bama safeties in the 1st. Maybe I shouldn't have made this thread, this can go on and on. I rather go after TJ Ward and resign Kurt. That'll be a SB experience backfield as well as a couple other names in FA

I don't see Hurney drafting defense. So if we go offense, we should just go all in for Barkley. If we go OL, I'm still on cutting Stew and CMC isn't the answer train

Cam is locked up through the next election cycle and will have at least one ring by contract’s end-the team will have control after that, and both player and team will reach another deal.  

okay... You don't think Cam has any power to force a trade? lol

I can't say that.  Look at Elliott and Gurley!  Even Melvin Gordon and Fournette have made huge differences. 

You have to look at every draft unto itself in some regards.  Just because Gettleman screwed up last draft doesn't mean that our opinions of RBs being drafted in the first should be jaundiced next draft.

Barkley by all indications will be far out of reach, and this team obviously has way too many needs to go Ditka/Ricky Williams for Barkley.

Hurney or not, to draft another 1st round RB (even if good ala DeAngelo and Stew) symbolizes “same old ringless Panthers”.  Fans would and should revolt.  There will be value at a higher need available.  It will not and cannot happen.

No.  There will be a new CBA in a few years and probably a lockout so who knows the future but Cam has no leg to stand on forcing a trade as things stand now.

really? I see Cam powering his way out of Carolina. What coach/OC is not salivating for Cam?

I highly doubt that happens. Cam is smart enough to see that the grass isn't always greener on the other side (Luck in Indy)...

      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.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      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.
