It doesn't matter what the exercise is man. It's the fact that he wants to pick and choose what he wants to do. If his competition completes every measurement why would he not do it?  What is he afraid of? If it's injury I would hate to see I'm in a game when the bullets fly. This league is not for the faint at heart.

All the teams, including the Panthers, have C'J. Stroud's  40 time and I feel sure it was impressive enough not to scare any of these teams off.

The fact that Stroud has an impressive strong arm and pinpoint accuracy is his primary calling call, not his 40 time ,long jumps or bench press history.

And the #1 overall pick isn't/doesn't?

They have it made and are treated like gods as long as they play well and win. Just like the NFL. They have to compete against a pressure cooker of talent within the program for playing time too. Just like the NFL.

It's as close as you can get to an NFL environment outside of the NFL. What makes the evaluation process tough for these guys is just how much better their supporting cast is compared to the teams they're playing week in and week out. 

I guess we just have a different perspective on the competition level between college and the pros. Being the number one overall pick is glorious until his first nfl game.  That's when reality sets in. All the hype in the world won't save him now.

He's an athletic freak. What player in the nfl isn't? What is he made of and what is in his head?  Is he weak or is he a dawg?  Does he play checkers or does he play chess? Does he even eat BBQ for heaven sake?  

I feel like I'm in a room full of crazy people.

    • 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.
