guy says he predicted Carolina getting Stewart and Otah in the 1st.

also says he hit on Connor......

I must say if that IS TRUE......that is beyond crazy. I have yet to hear anyone predicting those events that took place.

It wasn't a stretch to say that we would move up to get any combo of WR and OT in the first that year. I thought the same thing...didn't know exactly who but I figured we get both of those positions in the first round.

Right now we have some solid depth on the DL. He is probably right that we do need some more talent at DE though.

I like the athleticism that JPP brings and if we could get him in the 2nd then I wouldn't pass him up either. There are some pundits that are saying the Raiders might take him with their first round pick because of what he'll do at the combine. He is definitely an athletic freak...and if he has the desire to beat you then what more can you ask for out of a DE?

I wouldn't mind taking him at all with our first pick even though I still think that WR is a bigger need.

I assume that we are going to reach a contract agreement with Matt Moore so QB will probably not be at the top of our needs list but the guy needs some options to throw to. That said my draft board as of now looks like this, including unattainable players:

1. Suh

2. Bryant

3. Clausen

4. Gerald McCoy

5. Berry

6. Tate

7. Bradford

8. Dan Williams

9. Morgan

10. Benn

11. Kindle

12. Price

13. Griffen

14. Pierre-Paul

15. Colt McCoy

16. Hughes

17. LaFell

18. Damian Williams

Please don't get caught up in the hype of JPP... He's Derrick Harvey (which a lot of people here got convinced that we wanted), but a little better against a lot lesser competition... and Harvey was nowhere near as valuable as his hype...

Meh, I thought it was average...

JPP will likely be a 1st rounder, and I don't really want us to consider moving up for him.. He has the measurables, but his play is rather average if you ask me...

I'll make you a wager. If you're wrong and we do pick up JPP (very odd his initials are JP and he's #90) then you have to change your name to Samuel L. Jackson. How about it? :D

      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.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      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.
