Parsons, Fields, Slater

So glad the panthers picked CB at 8 when that position is easier to retain (Djax) or obtain (Henderson/Gilmore) or find UDFA (Taylor) and we passed up Parsons, Fields, Slater.    So fuging stupid to pass on positions we needed and that are harder to obtain.  Horn is great but just the last 4 months showed us how it’s easier to get a DB than it would to get QB, LT, or a stud linebacker.

We couldn’t get off the field on 3rd down in 2020 and when Horn was playing we got off the field on 3rd down

The number if fuging threads about “iF tHe pAnTheRs dRaFt a Lb” 

Slater would have been a good pick as well but Panthers thought 3rd down was the biggest issue

Fields wouldn’t be doing any better behind this line.

I hate the shoulda coulda woulda. Horn looks to be a good corner and it sucks he got hurt but you can thank the Texans shitty turf for that.

2 things here:

1. Our staff is fuging retarded if they think getting off the field on 3rd down is a bigger need then protecting the qb

 

2. Our staff is fuging retarded since they didnt have Slater on the board for tackle because of his "Short arms"  As of today Slater is grading out at 82 on PFF as a damn rookie that started the season at LT.  Almost 10 points higher than Sewell. 

 

The philosophy and mindset of this organization needs a damn re-do already

A lot of folks are forgetting how good Horn actually was playing.

It’s hard to tell considering WHO he was playing. I look forward to seeing him against elite QBs and WRs. I think he will be great, but a top 10 pick on CB isn’t really a franchise changer.  Like the Lions recently, Broncos last year, Jags with Ramsey, and Cards with Peterson have shown us. OL or QB should have been the pick with several options available. Slater would have been the safest, followed by Mac, with Fields having the most potential IMO.

    • 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.
