Panthers have so many needs for Hurney to fill.

#1, a receiver whos 40 isn't measured on the Mayan Calendar and doesn't glass bones and paper skin.  That would be nice

#2 Secondary, can't keep the same bullshit we have back there, need someone who will compete with worley and need to get safety help

#3 Youth movement at DE, Peppers isn't gonna be fresh for much longer.

On number 1 ... I'm not as down on Curtis Samuel as some here. Guy wasn't healthy from the start. An entire offseason in a pro system and not training for the combine should help. 

 

If he and Byrd can stay healthy, there are two deep threats right there.

The wide receiver position has to be addressed either through free agency or the draft. Especially if the rumors of Shula being extended are true. Next to receiver the defensive backs are probably the weakest position group, so adding talent at safety or cornerback would make an immediate impact. Then it gets more murky. Defensive end, offensive tackle, running back, and even tight end could all be of use. Though defensive ends and tackles would be the most prudent positions to invest into, as they're both difficult to find.

I don't think it's possible for Hurney to fill this many holes, especially with the cap room being limited. If he can find a legitimate receiving threat, and sure up the secondary he'll have done his job.

So many holes on this team going into 2018

What should be priority #1 as far as player personnel is concerned? 

TE/RB 

Troy Fumgali & Nick Chubb 

The old saying of killing 2 birds with one stone, getting another TE would also help solve the receiving problem and make the OT situation better.

Adding a playmaking WR is a must. Ideally it would be through free agency. Sammy Watkins or hell I'd even take Eric Decker at this point. 

Can we not just place the tag on Norwell? Get another year out of him and then we can worry about replacing him and the Kalil's (Ryan probably doesn't have but 2 good years left). 

Add a safety, TE and pass rusher in the first 3 rounds.

Need to draft ball hawk safety to similar Malik Hooker

    • You're assuming just as well.   Morgan and Canales were hired 3 days apart.  I believe it was partially due to their connections in Seattle.  i believe Tepper wanted some familiarity with his GM and HC.  It is so easy to sit back and arm-chair QB over draft picks.  You don't know what the philosophy was going into the 2024 draft.  I believe Canales and Morgan were drafting for the future.  XL and Brooks point to that philosophy. Name me one GM that is 100% on draft picks.  Just one.  You're not going to find one.    I think year one picks weren't for what can you do for me now but Potential.   XL hasn't lived up to the hype of a 1st rounder.  I think we all can agree on that. However, there still is hope he comes around.  What I believe they saw in him was his speed after the catch.  He needs to get more consistent but when he gets the ball you kind of hold your breath just a second because if he gets free, he's gone.  The Brooks pick was a signing for the future, and no one could have guessed he would re-injure the same ACL.  This makes the pick look bad but Dallas was ready to draft him later that same round.  IMO we'll have to see what happens next season before we can call this a bust. Wallace has improved each season and for a third rounder has done well.  Sanders has shown flashes and considering the pick in the 4th round it wasn't a bad pick.  His sophomore season IMO was a little bit more productive.  Smith-Wade has been a good addition and has played well.  For a 5th round pick to get as much playing time as he has.  Most picks below round 3 should take a couple of years to get up to speed.  He's been a decent player.  Crumedy, no comment We turned Barrett into Jackson.  This was an amazing move and basically got a starting CB for a 7th round pick.  Pretty shrewd if you ask me. Coker, maybe the best Free Agent signing of the 2024 draft class. So, in short, you can't say that the draft was a bust.  It isn't a home run but all but one are still on the team and outside of Brooks have made contributions to wins.  2025 draft class has been much better with almost every pick making contributions this season.  Now take Fitterer's two years and compare them to Morgan and tell me that they have the same philosophy. 
    • He hasn’t led crap, he’s on loaded teams and a piece of the puzzle. And he’s he has improved drastically but it took the ultimate QB whispers in Shanahan and KOC. You put him on this Panther team and he’s back to normal Darnold 
    • Slavin and Jarvis week to week. Florida cheap shots took out our two best players.  I’d start KK so he can beat the brakes off someone.
