We aren’t going into games with all of these defenseman lol and TDA isn’t coming in to be a 7th defenseman.

We have Slavin, Burns, Skjei, Pesce, Orlov, Chatfield, and potentially TDA.

For starters, Orlov isn’t playing on the bottom pairing for $7.75AAV and TDA isn’t going to be the 7th defenseman.

With the Orlov signing, Skjei is definitely getting moved for a forward and and if the Canes get Karlsson the Pesce is headed out too.

You forget this is Rod. fug ya he’ll let Orlov play 3 and people will be fuging dying because of it, but more importantly we will have the Great Wall of Gondor as our defense. I’m sticking with that!

I’d bet my house that we aren’t done. Rod may be in charge of the team by Waddell isn’t stupid enough to sign a defenseman for $7.75M and have Rod play him on the bottom unit.

I mentioned Bunting as a likely possible several weeks ago, fwiw. 

His mean streak worries me. Also his laziness according to Toronto folks. The last thing we need is another TT, not that TT is bad, but I think you know what I mean.

There’s something out there in left field for us, just like the Patches deal but hopefully this time it works out.

I’m still worried Orlov is going to need 6 month surgery or some poo knowing Don at this point. 
 

On the forward front I think we brought bunting in to cover the gap until svech gets back while allowing Pono to get some reps.

I think the fact that Svech is unlikely to be ready at the start of the season is another reason we aren’t done.

      Morgan & Canales

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      I am actually really excited about this kid. One thing that really jumped off watching his highlights was he almost is too fast or almost over pursues. You can get away with that stuff in college but the NFL these guys are stronger and more "slippery".  Little things that can be corrected but he seems to have a motor which is always a plus!

      Many teams looked at the drop-off as a reason not to select him in the first round.  Going into the 2024 season he was listed as a potential first round pick.  Morgan, IMO, based our pick on what he did in 2023 and expects him to play at the weight he played at Purdue. Morgan did this twice in this draft.  Scourton and Evans.  saw one stat on Evans that he had 58 ypg in one of his previous seasons.  Plus Notre Dame has a history of good TEs that can catch and block. Canales will 3 good TEs that all will see time on the field.
