Davonte Smith

I know we have many other pressing needs but how do you pass on a talent like this.  

You add him with Moore and our WR Corp is amazingly potent.

I would hate to see him go to Atlanta, TB or New Orleans

No WR corps is potent without an effective QB to throw them the ball.

No QB is effective lying on his back because his Oline sucks.

This is why more pressing needs should be given priority.

QB more pressing than Oline which is more pressing than making an already good WR corps even better.

Furthermore I would fill additional needs on the defensive side of the ball if the talent level was comparable.

Good WR's are a dime a dozen in the NFL. Most of our other needs not so much.

Davonte is great, but there are bigger needs, and there are WR later in the draft.

Now, if Carolina wants to trade up for a QB, Davonte might just be the key. The firepower around Tua is horrible, Miami needs weapons. Tua and Davonte played together at Alabama, he is a perfect type receiver for Tua's strengths. Miami may be willing to trade down and draft Davonte

I'm with you, Dave!  Those giving you poo don't have brass balls! I think he'll be gone though. We'll get a better picture after today's games!

    • So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.   
    • My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
