This was my favorite pick of our draft 

Many people had Mays projected as a first round pick before this past college season, and its not like he played badly last year either.  I think we got a steal.  Can never have too many quality offensive linemen.

Makes me more infuriated how we took a fuging long snapper over just keeping it simple and drafting an o-lineman like Trey Smith. I can never forgive Rhule for that. It wasn't that hard. It was an obvious choice that could've helped the team. Last year and this year shows that we give Rhule control over late rounds and some UDFAs. 

To make matters worse, Smith was chosen by KC with OUR 6th round pick.  The Jets  traded the 6th we gave them for Sam to KC.  KC used it for Smith.

That said the entire NFL passed on Smith 6 times and Fitt isn't blameless here.  Fitt is the one who raved about Deonte, our Smith alternative:https://youtu.be/JMtSvMy5Vdo?t=1835

Fitt is also the one who chose to get the LS in the 6th:  https://youtu.be/JMtSvMy5Vdo?t=1863

 And, we are in the 6th and the only guys left on our board are a long snapper and Hoskins?

I think our media department cannot or do not want to have us showing  interest in guys we didn't get.  If you look Rhule is continuing his list but its clipped.  The only reason Hoskins made the show was because we got him later.

      Off Season Thread

      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.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      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.
