For peaks sake we need to do SOMEthing. Either acquire a good vet, Boldin for instance, and draft a new youngster at WR or both. I almost added that we need to draft or acquire a DT. Then I realized I am not really as concerned with that since we are close to logjamming at that postion.

If they draft a WR in the 2nd they will not give any consideration to his return skills. This FO has shown they have no interest in spending any resources on a returner in FA or the draft.

They draft whoever they think is the best WR at that point and if he's a returner then it's a bonus. I would rather get the best WR on the board, then get the best returner later.

Smitty was drafted to return kicks...

Trindon Holliday of LSU. He's only 5-5 and 161 of so, but he's probably the fastest player at the combine at a 4.25ish 40, and can return kicks like a beast. Very similar to early Smitty in my eyes. He could be a steal in the 5th/6th.

Another guy similar is Brandon Banks of K-State. 5-7, 155. 4.29 40 time. Probably the best kick returner in the nation last season.

      Off Season Thread

      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.

      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.
