Glad he’s working out but not looking forward to what will come with it.  Some misguided individuals will sooner than later dream up a nonsensical “controversy”.  My bet is by game 2 of preseason. 

Would rather have a nonsensical qb “controversy” than what we have had at backup qb since DA left.

Why would we trade a guy who could possibly be our starting qb when Cam inevitably departs the Panthers ?

What does that even mean? Unless cam just dies Grier will be just a trading piece or backup like Anderson. I don't think his future Is with the Panthers. Best case is a trade.

I'm going to be a bit more cautious and say Cam's first incompletion of the regular season

Good problems to have if Grier does pan out to be legit.

I'd take a Favre/Rodgers situation or a Brady/Garoppolo situation.  Both benefit the Panthers in either a legit starting QB when Cam is done OR Cam plays much longer than anyone expects him to (and plays well) and then we cash in on trade assets.  I'm good with it.

Lol no this is a awful compariasion. How old was Farve when that situation transpired? Rodgers was drafted to be Farves successor in the first round for a old QB. Grier was drafted as an insurance policy in case cam isn't healthy in the 3rd round. Even if we have a few positive tweets in a week there is a stark difference between the two and between there talents as far as we know.

So Will Grier is looking better than anyone expected at this point. Spoke to a guy inside the org that said he is doing things they did not expect of him this early in camp. 

The nice thing is that he is the same type of passer that Cam is. Really nice tough on the deep balls, perfect for Norv's system. Would not do so well in a west coast style offense. 

Can't wait to see what the kid has in preseason. 

Would make for a tremendous insurance policy this season.

Simply comparing potential positive situations/scenarios.  Not necessarily the players themselves....I did preface my last post by saying "IF Grier turns out to be legit".

      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.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      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

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      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.
