One wish...


Mr. Scot

Recommended Posts

If you could change just one thing in recent Panthers history, what would it be?

And to clarify, by this I mean a wish other than "Fire Fox" or Bench Delhomme" or something of that sort. That's too simplistic. I'm looking for something deeper.

My one wish would be that the Panthers would have done something I hoped a long time ago. I was hoping one offseason that they'd make a move to acquire a young receiver who looked like he was just ready to break out and become something special. It seemed like he could be the number two we'd needed for a while and make the team offense a serious threat.

His name: Wes Welker :(

(Fireball was with me on this one)

Other ideas?

I would like to go back and use the 19th overall pick in the 2008 draft on Joe Flacco... I love me some Jeff Otah (no homo) but there's no question about how badly we could use a guy like Flacco right now.

I like this one, but I really have to ask myself if Flacco would even be playing right now if he were drafted by the Panthers.

Sorry, correction - would have had to use our 13th overall pick on him instead of Stewart.

We could use Flacco much more right now than Stewart... could still have Otah presumably.

Even with John Fox, I think if we had a QB who was the 13th overall pick sitting on the bench we would have made a change at this point...

    • 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.
