Fitty after DJ Johnson sounded hammered in the draft call…

I have probably watched every single “the call” video for every pick we’ve made in the last 15 years or more (at least since they started posting them on the interwebs)…I just love those clips.

and that call with DJ ranks up there with the worst of them.

I recall Dwayne Jarrett being high as a kite during an interview on ESPN after we drafted him.

Yea, he was high AF but I’m sure coaches know these guys smoke in the off-season. 
 

As someone that hates talking on the phone, having to talk to 5 different people in one call would drain tf out of me no matter how short the call is lol

I hear nothing wrong there

First, there is no problem at all if he was drunk or high there.  You could hear there were a ton of people in the background, clearly having a draft party.  Do you really think there isn't drinking and/or smoking going on at every one of these draft parties?  They're not getting drafted like a pickup basketball game and needing to jump right into the game, it would be perfectly acceptable if they were enjoying the party like any other 24 year old.  It's not like the guy showed up drunk to the green room at the draft, that would be concerning.

Second, there are always delayed responses on those calls and the coaches all know it.  Whether it's their emotions making them take a beat before getting a response out or just family not being able to control themselves and hugging, high five-ing, talking to you, etc.

    • 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.
