You’re wanting to draft like we’re going to be competitive this season or even next. 
 

If they have Amik ranked higher you take him and look to fill outside CB another time. 

I want to draft like you can develop players that can fit a role.. If you take a outside CB that needs development cool. . Taking a nickle CB this high over that is a move I need explain to me..

I get what you are saying but A) you expect Hurney to find that exception and B) isn't there other options that fill massive needs with better odds?

Look if we were a 12-4 team with a good roster then I wouldn't mind a swing for a homerun. Let's just get on base at this point. 

I've watched enough Hurney drafts to fully expect an absolutely mind boggling pick tonight.

Ok that I can agree with when you put it that way.

Diggs would be perfect for just that. A year or two of some growing pains but he could be special by the time we’re ready to compete again

The real question is do we draft the guy we're going to draft 2 rounds too high in the 2nd or the 3rd tonight?

I wish you were wrong but that is incontestable. 

On the dark side, it could be two of those tonight...

But 5'8 in the league of giants.. We don't have a big Cb on the roster either.. Is getting a nickle CB more important then a outside CB??

I think they are both important.  Honestly in today's NFL nickel is your base.

I'm just greedy, I would like to draft both.

Our D-Line has Short, Brown, and Burns.  It should be good without having to spend a high draft pick on a DE.  We can always add some cheap vets during preseason.

Give me Brown, Jaylen Johnson, and Amik Robertson and I think that is a good start on rebuilding this defense.  Add a project DE later in the draft, a LB, an interior O-Lineman, and possible a WR in no particular order and I'll be happy.  Also I wouldn't be surprised if we drafted a RB at some point.

    • 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.
    • 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.
