From a GM's standpoint...

I love Williams, and I think he's one of the best flat out playmakers that this team has ever had (outside of Steve Smith for sure). But I'm just not sure about giving him a monster deal. How much longer can he really play at the level he's played at the past two seasons?

I know it's a discussion for another time, and there's sure to be a shitstorm about it until he's locked up or gone, but I'm just not so sure.

We have a young, solid roster and money to spend. Suddenly Hurney doesn't look like such a fool.

Beason, DWill, Stewart, Otah, Kalil, Thomas Davis...

We have alot of young players still under rookie contracts that are going to want to get paid. Giving Pep a huge contract means you eventually have to lose several of those guys. We're probably better off in the long run letting him walk.

For now, just take care of our own players and add a few mid-level FA WRs. Lance Moore is a guy I like that should be pretty cheapish. Breaston I like even more but I don't know how reasonable that would be to bring him in.

Keeping the Core of this team intact is critical. By letting Peppers go we are going to be able to keep those players here. We would have had to decide on which players, if any, we would be able to keep had we tagged Pep.

I would consider tendering Marshall to see if anyone would bite. We might be able to get a decent CB with the draft choice.

Otherwise I would sign Davis and Marshall along with Moore.

Go Panthers

    • 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.
