Panthers GM candidate Ed Dodds now available for hire

Said it before, but it speaks well of us that Dodds agreed to interview.

He declined to interview with the Browns last year because he didn't feel like he was ready. He added that you generally only get one chance to do something like this and if he was gonna do it, he absolutely wanted to hit it out of the park.

I don’t know anything but the Colts draft in recent years have been very average to bad, other than hitting on Nelson and Leonard. 

Pittman Jr, Taylor and Blackmon were all starters and played well from this year’s draft. They were drafted in the 2nd/3rd. They didn’t have a first or maybe they traded down, not sure.

They also had a few more players than Leonard and Nelson in 2018. Hines was a 4th rounder and he’s got over 2100 yards in 3 years. Braden Smith has started 3 years at T.

Their 2019 draft was meh, just role players but both 2018 and 2020 drafts got at least 3 solid starters and some role players. Those are good drafts. Coming away with 2 good starting OL, a solid WR, a solid duo of RBs, a stud LB, a starting safety and a bunch of backups is a nice haul in 2 drafts.

Traded their 2020 1st for Deforrest Buckner. I’d call that a win as well.

He was also a major influence in Seatle during 2007-2016 seasons, leading to 2 superbowls and helped draft wilson and the legion of boom.

Paris Campbell has some talent also, though injuries have derailed the start of his career. I wouldn't count him out just yet!

    • 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.
