I was talking to a Giants fan buddy today and he says this dude can really kick. They were half expecting him to unseat Gano. Hopefully we landed Butler 2.0. Oh, and evidently he's huge. Like could legit sub in at DE huge.

So he might be able to play……. LT?!

I kinda wonder if JJ didn't say something that might have prevoked them in the off-season to pulling the trigger on the LS.  Like hedging their bets?  I'm like the rest of you on why they used a late pick on one, granted he was the best in the draft but still.

Unless Jansen doesn't like money I can't understand why he'd want to retire. You can't touch the LS now and he has one job.

I think it was more the Panthers exploring options to get younger and cheaper.

That's what was was thinking as well.  I just didn't expect them to use a draft pick on one. I guess they wanted to make sure they got the one they wanted just in case.

They probably plan on stashing Fletcher on the PS and he can take over next year if JJ retires.

    • 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.
