The Final Four


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

Peters was my 1st choice, but honestly it looked like four really solid candidates.

And at the end of the day, you have to understand that a top flight GM prospect with other options where he will likely be offered full traditional GM power likely isn't going to choose to be a part of the model we seem to be developing. This is the Rhule show in Carolina and this "GM" is just a cog in the wheel.

I’m really intrigued by Poles. K-C also have a history of investing in their O-line.

Ossenfort also comes from an organization investing in, and finding, a lot of O-line in rounds 2-4.

Fitterer comes from an organization known for ignoring their o-line.
 

I might be thinking of this wrong, but O-line history is extremely important in my view.

And one other item of note...

Fitterer has been a college scouting guy for most of his career. You're going to want to pair him with a strong pro personnel guy to help balance things out.

Our current Director of Pro Personnel is Matt Allen...

... Jerry Richardson's grandson.

I wonder if Allen keeping his job was a stipulation when Tepper bought the team.

I really hope Tepper just let him keep the title and not the actual job

So we need to fire our Director of Pro Personnel then.

Allen and Jeff Morrow are kind of the last vestiges of the Richardson era.

Morrow is in kind of a weird spot because he and Pat Stewart have the same title, only Morrow has "Executive" in front of his.

Kinda makes me wonder if they both might be headed to Washington sometime soon.

    • 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.
