While I agree that Hurney should have been gone day one, I also can realize Tepper recognized he wasn’t the guy and found a replacement. It probably should have happened earlier but I recognize he has fixed that mistake. 
 

Again. We lost Luke and Cam. The entire board agreed it would be a 3-4 year rebuild. It’s been one year. One fugging draft. And people are losing their poo over not trading away 3+ 1sts for a QB. The problem isn’t Tepper so much as it is impatient fans with short term memories and near sightedness 

I doubt ruhle or fitt are reaching out to the huddle for advise...thankfully

I’ve been visiting this board for 15 years or so now and I’ve always found this place miles ahead of other team message boards in terms of intelligence to team operations, the cap, trade value etc.

I have really lost faith in all that in the last 4-5 years and this offseason has really made me question of all the smart posters just took off and went elsewhere. Holy poo it’s gotten pathetic around here.

Want to see some of our smart posters have a quick peek into the tinderbox...LOL

I am genuinely curious what people think we should have done this off season.  Obviously Plan A was Watson, and yeah.  We see what happened there completely out of the blue.

I hear the Huddle talk about how we have a million holes.

How we absolutely need a franchise QB right now.  But we better absolutely not trade acceptable value for a franchise QB.  That ruins our future.

And then I see our limited cap space.

Apparently we shoulda convinced the Lions to part with Stafford for a 7th, grab Watson for a 6th..because he is better after all.  Maybe sign Thuney, Linsley, Zeitler or something for Vet mins.  Oh and cut Bridgewater and get Bridgewater to void his own contract so we didn't have any deadcap.

It's almost like we truly thought we were players for Watson, turns out he's a scum bag which totally altered all of our plans. It's fine, you'll have more chances to find a QB. Honestly, there's like five good QB's in the NFL. The rest of the batch are just average and can fluctuate on a year to year basis. Focus on building up the strongest roster possible, the QB will come. Fine they didn't give up two firsts if they weren't in love with any of the options.

    • 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.
