No they won't. LT was the correct choice no matter what.

I don't think you understood the post. This place has hated on Pickett as much as anyone in years. He has to be a bust. Could we or should we have been able to draft him or Willis? Doesn't matter we didn't have the ammunition thanks to Scott and Matt (no 2nd or 3rd).

If Pickett ends up being a homerun for the Steelers some folks here are gonna have some serious explaining to do.

I'm not expecting it, but I wouldn't be surprised.  They are one of the best run organizations in all of pro sports.  Big difference between getting drafted there and developing as a QB versus getting drafted here.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they traded back into tomorrow for one of the QBs. Maybe Corral? I’m just theorizing .

Ian Rapoport was saying earlier that they could go get Baker and that’s the case, then no they’re not gonna trade back in to get a quarterback

Nope, which isn't surprising. No stud RB prospects this year. I don't think any go in the 1st.

After teams getting Eli Mitchell and the like the later rounds I think that trend is over. Good thing we paid CMC $15M a year right before the market crashed

    • 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.
