Yeah pretty much Kemoko Turay at edge and then a few decent DT's. We're 6th in line on waiver claims though so good chance we can get at least 1 guy if we want

Looking him up now, yea i did see better DTs.....but i thought a few edge guys would hit the market...

Wow, I thought his injury was a 3-4 week recovery...

Dang! We finally looked like we had a good kicker and he gets hurt kicking into a net in pre-season for the whole season. That sucks. Poor guy.

Now we have to get lucky again. Kickers are important and especially if a team hopes for a playoff run which they all do before you start. I'm watching.

Hasson Reddick. Was that too fast? We’ll miss him but Rhule’s why he came and he played well.

It’s funny too because you still don’t get that I don’t like Rhule, do you?

I get it, and yet you blame Fitterer for any and all moves you don't like as if he and Rhule we're basically one and the same.

The inner workings of an NFL team are waaaaayyy more complicated than that.

OMG, you really don’t get it, do you? Your own post to me listed a bunch of moves and every good one you assigned to Fittere and every bad one you assigned to Rhule. You said that right after you said all decisions went through Rhule.

DJ Moore extension must have been Fitt because everyone congratulated him but you said Robby extension was all Rhule. See how that works?

You assign a good move involving a former Rhule college player to Rhule, but a bad move with one to Fitterer.

You're doing the very thing you accuse others of doing.

SMH, just stopped responding. I’m not blaming Fitt for everything. JFC, all I’ve said is Rhule isn’t responsible for everything bad. You asked for something Rhule was responsible for and I answered. I then gave you the example where Fitt was universally lauded for one WR extension and you blamed Rhule for the other one. You are cherry picking because you like Fitt. I am not cherry picking, just saying Rhule <> every bad move, of which we’ve made a ton. I think Rhule and Fitt share in a lot of poo decisions and yes, the inner workings of NFL teams are complicated hence my annoyance at the simplistic blame Rhule for everything bad which is a pretty universal thought and you’ve demonstrated that well.

Here's the thing...

Rhule is bad at his primary job (coaching).

He's been, by his own statements and those of others, heavily involved in the quarterback decisions (which to date have been terrible).

His other talent evaluation task, choosing assistant coaches, has gone poorly.

And, as mentioned, he has final say over everything.

People genuinely have little to no reason to have positive feelings about him.

Fitterer, though? There's been the way he ran the draft, getting trades for guys we didn't expect, the presence of Dan Morgan, hell just sounding like he actually has a clue when he talks...and other things as well.

Believing that Fitterer and Morgan could be successful if divorced from Rhule is not exactly a difficult thing.

I get the curiosity, but he's legitimately kind of a bust.

(not that Ian Thomas is anything special)

Oh, I get he's not first round talent any longer, but have you looked at our TE room?  Thomas-->blocker, Tremble--> blocker, Sullivan--> work in progress.  It wouldn't kill us to bring in a TE that is more WR than FB.

    • 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.
