UPDATING BREAKING NEWS: Otah on IR, Panthers sign OL Pettiti

OK, here's more on the news that the Panthers have put Jeff Otah on injured reserve.

He suffered a knee injury early in last Sunday's 20-10 loss at New England and played for much of the game before leaving with a sore shoulder late.

However, the knee injury turned out to be significant, but is not a ligament tear, according to general manager Marty Hurney.

Otah is expected to have surgery and to be ready for the Panthers' offseason minicamp, OTA, etc.

Well at least Gross and Otah going down will give our inexperienced depth on the OLine some experience for next season. Who knows we may be more competitive down the stretch and that experience will be invaluable.

At least it appears nothing serious and nothing that is likely to cause a weakness for future injuries.

yeah....that franchise tag on pep....awesome idea.

OL depth was going to be bad anyway cause hangman and omiyale were most likely going to be taking starting jobs somewhere but still that left us with really crappy choices at OL depth.

another major fail for the panthers FO.

    • Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down. 
    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • 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.
