The QB position

Lets assume Matt Moore finishes 2-2 down the stretch. What do you do next offseason? Do we keep Delhomme on the roster? Is Matt Moore the answer? Do we draft a player like a Sam Bradford? Do we let go of Mcown and bring up Hunter Cantwell? (who Fox said has promise) My personal favorite would be to somehow get rid of Jake, and our roster be

1. Moore

2. Bradford (w/e rookie)

3. Cantwell (who if sucks i will call Hunter Cant "throw" well)

With an open competition going into camp.

Ummm I really think a combination of Moore, rookie and Cantwell is asking for trouble. Yes it may pay off, but you need a veteren in there somewhere as an insurance policy.

Plus I have a sneaky suspicion Jakes contract might negate any release. Unless another FO comes in, but then if they come in chances are Moore might not be around either.

I think this would be a good lineup for a UFL franchise but would really be quite disasterous for an NFL team. With this lineup you are "hoping" that Moore becomes a seasoned leader that is capable of starting and winning. To me this is much more reckless than what the FO did this past offseason in signing Delhomme to an extension. They were "hopeful" that Delhomme would be able to bounce back but at least here was some basis for this based on JD's past ability to win.

Regardless, they should draft a quarterback next year (or pick one up through free agency).

If Matt Moore plays at a decent level, then keep him around and let him start while a rookie is developed (scary thought in Carolina, I know). Jake is a horrible starter, but there is no better backup available for this team (plus we would take a cap hit by cutting him anyway).

    • 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.
