Expect Hurney to double up in Draft


Recommended Posts

8 out of 11 drafts he conducted for the Panthers he selected 2 players from the same school. 

Other trends I noticed are that his first 3 rounds typically are players from big name schools. He doesn't mess with smaller schools in early rounds with a few exceptions. And, in almost every draft there has been a trade within the first 3 rounds, whether it's up or down, he makes moves. 

In conclusion, I could see a number of schools being double dipped by Hurney in the first 3 rounds, as well as potentially a trade to move up for a player he likes. 

What big namd schools out there have players that fit a need at multiple positions who could theoretically be on the board when the Panthers pick?

Texas A&M? Stanford? Georgia?

I honestly have no faith in this organization until a new owner, GM and maybe even coaching staff is in place. The secondary is complete trash and cannot be fixed with a bunch of rookies from the draft. We just patch worked the WR position with a couple average guys. I hope it works out but I have my doubts. Poe was our best signing by far but not sure the money could have been better spent for a higher level WR. Any new owner news? This is what Im most looking forward to.

I remember when he traded up for that superstar Armanti Edwards from that power house school App State

We're all so lucky not to be publicly remembered for the dumbest thing we ever did. Well, one of the dumbest things. 

He rolled the dice, failed miserably... is it too much to ask that we live in the present with this poor bastard? He's really not doing so terribly this time around.

    • The thing I hate about strength of schedule is that NFL teams change so much over a year and past success or failure doesn't really dictate future success or failure
    • Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉
    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.
